I need some help. I was sleeved on Aug 26, 2016, weighing in at 312, today I weigh 272! I was down to 265 about 3 weeks ago and now all of a sudden I've gained 7 pounds. I've come to the conclusion that I'm a slow loser, and I accept that, but what I don't accept is this gaining and not losing consistently! Everything I'm about to list is the God honest truth: 1. I faithfully drink 1 gallon of Water a day, no matter what! 2. I consume about 1300 calories a day (sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less) 3. I get about 120g Protein in a day (my doctor actually told me to reduce this) 4. I plan out my meals everyday and do a pretty good job of sticking to what I'm supposed to eat that day. 5. I don't exercise as much as i should, but from my understanding "weight loss starts in the kitchen", so I am conscious of what I put in my mouth 6. I don't get enough sleep, maybe 4-5 hours a night, and this does cause me to be a little stressed during the day because I am tired. 6. Occasionally I will eat something I shouldn't but I don't go off on a bender. Can someone please tell me what else I need to do?! What am I doing wrong?! I've never been this frustrated before, it makes me want to cry I'm so angry! Yes, I'm losing inches, but honestly that is not what my concern is. I want to drop weight!

I have Highmark BCBS of Pennsylvania (not sure if its the same thing), and they approved me within one business day after submitting my 6 month medically supervised diet notes.

How about a gold clutch? Gold and navy look so good together! If you have gold shoes, wear those too.

Hi all! I'm new here, I have my surgery scheduled for August 23, and to Celebrate I went clothes shopping! Has anyone else done this? I got a lot of items in size 8/10 (my goal). I'm currently wearing 16/18. I figured if anything I just got fits odd after I hit my goal size I'll just make alterations, since I can sew. Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App

I have a lot of old clothes I can use as I work my way down in sizes. The items I got are my ultimate goal clothes. I didn't buy a lot. Mostly tops and dresses (that I can easily alter if needed), I've fluctuated so much in weight in my 31 years that I have clothes ranging from size 20 down to 10.
