I'd love to find others in my area who have had bariatric surgery, especially the gastric bypass. I am pre-op at this time but building a support system would be very helpful.

I am looking for anyone: as many anyone's as possible! Who have dealt with emotional eating after gastric bypass. I'm about 1.5 years out and after having lost 180 pounds have gained back 30. I'm scared and need help. Please. Sent from my MotoG3 using the BariatricPal App

It has been nearly a year since I lost weight and I have gained back 30 pounds. Why? Emotional eating. Anyone have advice? Sent from my MotoG3 using the BariatricPal App

It's taken longer for me to put this weight back on than it did before the surgery. But the big thing is that this is the issue I dealt with before the surgery, the reason I was fat to begin with. Surgery won't fix those things. But, surgery WILL give you a fighting chance! Sent from my MotoG3 using the BariatricPal App

I like that!!! It's really creative! I've got dogs, guinea pigs, and a cat... I know they'd love to eat in my stead ???? I work at a bakery so that has been a huge issue. I'd quit but my parents own it and everything I do is to help them semi retire. Nothing is ever easy lol. And no matter what I do there will always be excuses. Distracting myself is a good idea. Any thoughts for alternatives at work? Sent from my MotoG3 using the BariatricPal App
