I had my sleeve done July of 2013 I was 231 when I had my surgery, I got down to 112 pounds, which was way to much weight to lose I think my body couldn't handle me being so skinny, I looked sick, all my friends told me I needed to put a little weight back on, now I weigh 129 and I look and feel so much better, I didn't over eat to gain the weight back I honestly don't know if my body just wasn't made to be that thin, now I'm worried about stretching my pouch out, I don't over eat , no pop, I do drink a lot of coffee with real sugar, I don't like Splenda or sweet n low, its the holidays and have been eating sweets one thing I didn't do even when I was heavy, I'm so scared of getting big again any suggestions would be awesome, and don't worry about hurting my feelings I want the truth. Thanks! Dawn

Thank You Babbs, I know 129 pounds is a good healthy weight, I was just concerned gaining what I did back, I figured my body wasn't happy with me being that small, a friend of mine had the By-Pass and within 3 years gained all of her 150 pounds she had lost, that's why I'm so worried about gaining, she did go back to eating fast-food and drinking 4-5 mountain dews a day, like l said with the Holidays here, I did fall off the wagon, but I'm hitting the Gym today and getting right back on track, I have struggled with weight my whole life and so happy where I 'am today and go back to being over weight again, I was just worried about stretching my stomach back out. I have THREE closets full of clothes and shoes something I've never had before and I finally love to go shopping and look nice, when I was heavy I didn't care (Well I did) but now it's a whole new ball game and never do I want to see a size 20 in my closet again. I wished I would have joined this site a long time ago, now I know if I need input I can come on here :-) Thank You! Dawn Happy New year!! :-)
