Lots of people do. It seems to happen during the 2nd and 3rd years. That's why it is soooooo important to use that first 1-2 years to really solidify the lifestyle changes and strategies - exercise, clean eating, delaying gratification, learning not to cheat, and various tools like IF.

I'm 2 years 1 month out. I reached my goal of 150 in August. I am at 146.6 ATM. I've read it can happen 2 to 3 years out. I read weight gain can average at or around 20 lbs. I'm not sure if this is true or not.

yep. I've been hanging out on this and other bariatric boards for about five years. It happens a lot. It's not inevitable - but it seems like a LOT of people have a rebound.

Like the 10% regain many talk about or like quite a lot?

Anyway, you will for sure find both groups on the boards.
