Hi! I'm new here, I just found this forum after doing some research on sleeve patients that gained weight. I'm actually really worried, I had started at 125kgs the day before surgery, and I had gotten to 85 kgs last july. I had lost a bit after that, but then I got super busy and hectic with work, I couldn't exercise because of lack of time, and I wasn't taking care of my diet. My anxiety kicked in, and so did my depression. My PCOS started acting up, and I got insomnia as well. It's been hard to face reality and step on that scale after all those months. I'm at 95 kgs again, which makes me even more anxious and depressed. Has anyone here been through something like this? To be really honest I'm incredibly worried and scared. I am eating more than before, which scares me even more. I feel like such a failure and I feel awful for losing the momentum I had, and I don't want to gain weight again. Has anyone here gone through this and got back on track? I'm so scared and worried

I've also lost a lot of hair, and even though I'm taking my vitamins, I can't seem to grow it back, in volume or in length. Has anyone experienced issues with this?

Have you tried this? Does it really work? I could try it! Thank you for the suggestion and the support!

I've seen my doctor a lot since my surgery, but I haven't gone back in because I couldn't afford my blood work, so I've been postponing. I will get my blood work done and go in, once I get back on my feet financially. I am worried too about the amount of food I can actually eat, and even though I still take care of my portions and don't overeat, I'm worried my stomach might be stretching. I do believe anxiety has played a big role in all of this and I'm decided to get everything back on track, as hard as it might be.

Thank you so much for you answer and your support! It's very encouraging. I've been thinking for a while now to go back to a doctor regularly about my depression/anxiety, I had gotten a lot better before the surgery which is why I stopped going, but these past months have been so hectic and I've been all over the place emotionally because of my PCOS. I have already started to get back on track and hopefully I'll be able to see some results with diet and exercise. Thank you for your support!
