Hi Everyone. Hope your all safe and well? Ok so here's my gastric story. I first had a gastric sleeve in late 2013. It was so successful my start weight was 128kg and I went done to 74kg. Amazing I know. I took my time with food ok I cheated a lot but back then I thought it was ok. I gradually started to put on weight again in 2015 I think because I wasn't happy and lonely I turned to food as comfort. I thought I was invisible and that the weight will drop off again, I was wrong! With what started last year the terrible pandemic I stayed in and ate! and I went back up to 114kg!!!!! I felt so sick and angry with myself knowing that I did that to myself. In September last year I started to get health problems and knew I had to seek help once again. And so I decided to get re-sleeved. All booked and prepared for December 2020. All went well with my re-sleeve the surgeon couldn't believe how much I had stretched my stomach, that hurt when he said that. So I'm nearly 5 months post-op and I just feel it's not the same, I'm slowly losing the weight and I can easily eat food not like before where I'd be scared to. I feel I'm taking advantage of my tool and not treating it how I should. Please help...

This is great to read. I'm struggling with those thoughts everyday day, all day. Can you explain more how you changed your mind set? Sent from my SM-G781B using BariatricPal mobile app
