I has the sleeve in Sept 2015, its been 1 year 8 months and I was maintaining for a while. I noticed my weight at 155lbs last June to April this year 139.4lbs. I weighed my self today and I am 143.0lbs.. that is the 1st time I have seen a weight gain and it makes me nervous, I know its only 4lbs but just seeing the weight go up is freaking me out.... I need to get back down and I know I have been eating not all the healthy lately due to being busy. I have fell off track for the last year or so.. what I do : I eat anything I want or crave just not big amounts I eat protein 1st all the time carbs last I eat every 3 to 4 hours depending on what I eat, sometimes every 2hrs. I can only no matter how hard I try drink 36oz of water, during the week 16oz of coffee and here and there 20 oz of life water. I have been super tired I take vit d, b12 complex, b 12 sublingual, a hair and nail collagen pill and estroven. I drink socially( always with people I trust) I never have problems. I do not have a exercise routine nor a gym membership, just do squats and walk and punches. I do have a sweet tooth nibble here and there but not whole candy bars or anything. Please no rude comments this is for support and I know no one is perfect. I knew this day would come and it could be just because I am older and in menopause. But 4lbs to me is 100 Thanks

Hello All So I am on a weight loss plateau and have been for like 3 months. I had my sleeve last September and I am at 10 months out right now. I can only drink about 32 oz of Water and then my Protein shake 11 oz Ill have a Gatorade G2, diet Snapple also or a V8 they say that all counts as fluids. I eat chicken and veggies, Salmon and veggies, turkey and lean burgers. I can eat 1/2 cup depending on the food maybe a little more or less depending. I always eat my protein 1st. I have ate sweets and carbs but not everyday or a lot at all.. If I crave it I'll have a little to curve it I don't go over board. They say by 1yr I should be eating 1cup but in 2 month it will be my year and I am still at 1/2. other foods I eat, refried Beans with cheese sour cream, cheese sticks etc, I cook with olive oil, I eat during the week at 5am, 8am, 12pm, 3pm, and 6pm( not all the time only if I am really hungry), weekends I am not as good with times.. I wake up later and also stay up later. I exercise 2 times a week. I was 240 last February Day of surgery I was 221 I am now 152 my goal is 135 I also was wondering that maybe the extra skin I have( not a lot but enough) may be 10lbs? if so then I would be 142 so that would make me close to my goal. with that said maybe that's why I have been stuck at this weight. Please not negative comments Thanks a lot

Thanks, I was thinking of more exercise. Trying to watch what I eat also I don't eat healthy all the time. I do go out but I try to make the best choice there is when I do. But that's not a lot of going out but still. It just gets frustrating when you know you have more to loose and its been months and no change Thanks again -

Hello I have been on puree for 2 weeks. although I dont if what I was doing was really pureed ? Like I would make crab salad, with mayo hot sauce salt and pepper but i would just chew chew chew cuz it was already soft. or chicken blended with gravy or bbq sauce but it never looked like baby food. I made a chicken salad but the veggies didnt really blend. I bought the ouree baby blender $20 but like I said it dont puree it so it looked like baby food and was a little thick. but the doctor said "and your doing fine. its sitting well" and I said yes and she said you will be fine( i was freaking out a little because not pureed like it should) but i also see on here some people had moist food at 4 weeks? but I want to continue this last week but I am tired and my taste buds dont like anything seems like. I love chicken so anything I could do with that... also I bought a smart one chicken and mashed potatos I will try that later for dinner. I am looking for high Protein because I dont think I am getting enough. Next week start moist foods and looking for recipes on a buget anything I can mash with a fork PLEASE HELP Thanks
