I started this life change on August 21, 2014 at 262.7 lbs. I am currently at 190. For almost six weeks now I have gone down to 185 and back up to 194. I'm going crazy. I need to see my numbers going down again. I work out 4 to 5 times a week and still yoyo up and down but get stuck on 190. My goal is to be between 140 and 150. I need help or advice. This has been the hardest and absolutely the best thing I ever done for myself and I cant go backwards.I am diabetic and before the sleeve I took two oral diabetic medications as well as 6 to 7 insulin shots a day, along with two high blood pressure medications, one med for cholesterol and I was heading towards something for depression. Now, besides the vitamins, I take 1 pill...NO insulin! I cant go back.i get hungrier now as well. I cant eat a lot but I sometimes eat often. Anyone have any of these problems..I'm just so scared Ill go backwards.

Hi Bobby, I feel like I was reading my own story!!! That is exactly what is happening to me. I think Im gonna try only weighing in once a week too! I have conditioned myself to head straight for that scale in the morning. I feel like im addicted to seeing those big drops!! Thank you so much and keep up the great work..

Hi Sweetie, I actually just started my journal back up and I use my fitness pal. I know Ive been a little off track just trying new foods to see if I can get them down. But its back to strict sleeve diet. I also just started the insanity program with hopes that it will lend a hand. I feel so great I dont want this to ever end!

Hi Pepper, thanks for that advice, I am definitely going to look that up! How far out are you? I just started seeking help and I am already so excited to hear from others!
