Side effect of sleeve, I have to get all new winter shoes. My old ones do not fit, I literally walk right out of them. I rather replace for weight loss rather than weight gain.

Gained another pound. I hope I don't hear about the weight gain when I go for my fill Wednesday.

I weighed myself a few days after surgery and I went from 238 to 221, but I weighed myself today, now ten days after surgery, and I weigh 226. Is it common to gain a few pounds after surgery? I'm barely eating anything, so I don't know if there's another reason for the weight gain. Thanks.

4th day on pre-op scale says 234 on 4/16. That is down 13 lbs. from last weigh in at my doctor with clothes on. I should have weighed n at home in bday suit on Sunday morning before starting diet but I knew I had been bad the last few weeks and hated to face what the reality of my actions would have been in weight gain. I am happy that I am 13lbs lighter than I was the last time I weighed myself at home. I thank God for helping me to have a good start.

It has been over a year since I have been on here & wow have I missed being able to chat with people that can relate to my weight struggles. This journey has been a up and down roller coaster and I am learing more about myself everyday. I am struggeling with the 52lbs I gained with my pregnancy I just cant lose it! Now to top that off my Dr. informed me I have Gallstones and he wants me to get my gallbladder out and I dont want to! I have read so Many BAD things about weightloss stopping and weight gain after this surgery and I am not doing it! I have 130lbs still to lose till I am at my goal and I will be damned if I am gonna blow it cause I have some discomfort! I have joined a gym something I thought I would never do and more shocking I enjoy it and I know I can lose this weight I am just hitting a few bumps in the road to this thing called success.

My Journey to GAINING the weight!
shaynabayna added images to a gallery album in Member Photo Gallery
This is my journey to weight gain if you will. I started gaining weight during my pregnancies. I had my first born in October 2008 then 3 months later I got pregnant and gained 80 lbs the first trimester (3 months) ever since than it has been a struggle with the weight. I gave birth to him in October 2009 and had my last child in October 2012. I am so ready to get this weight off and with exercise and diets it's just not coming off. I'M READY!! THIS IS MY YEAR!! AND THIS IS MY STORY!! -

Through the ups and downs of weight gain and loss.. The most I lost on my own was 23 lbs. to turn around and gain it all back plus some in a semester.
-
Officially moved my weight back up 2 pounds... I haven't done that before because a day or two weight gain always dropped back down but this one's been around long enough now to change the tracker.
Oh well... onward and upward -- I'm gonna keep doing what's worked so far.-

Thanks @jodie1961 -- I was always amazed at how much younger people looked in their after pictures and I've been shocked to do that too!
@BladeFox -- I know, it's natural -- I'm just so close to goal (within 10 pounds) and it's irritating to see that scale go up. Hormones, yes -- eating is still very on track so I don't think it's an eating issue. Of course the first thing that comes to mind is "Is this where my body wants to stay?" But, I'm not giving up on it yet. I'll just keep on keeping on and YES, onwards and DOWNWARDS!

So today I went in for my 5th fill. I received 0.4cc. That is aggressive for me. I lost 8.4 pounds last month. Some days are better than others, but I am so thankful for my lap band. No weight gain during Thanksgiving!! Really!!! On to Onderland.
-
One thing I was NOT prepared for when I had my LapBand and lost all my weight was how others reacted to my changes. I was so focused on me and getting healthy that I did not see the others around me seething with toxic thoughts and words. Took me completely by surprise how you know people for years then all of a sudden their true character showed up.
This time around I am prepared but I am totally documenting this journey from the very beginning in my blog! It's been therapeutic to write it all out.
Anyone else have issues with friendships dissolving after WLS?
Created a new blog to journal ALL of my thoughts and progresses

The Evolution of My Weight Gain and Loss
zmdh39 added images to a gallery album in Member Photo Gallery
I wasn't always obese, in fact, most of my life I was rather fit. Looking back on these pictures it was shocking to me just how fast my weight got out of control. I am sure a number of people can relate, so I figured they were worth sharing. -

How are you doing? I had my last fill over a month ago and I think I am going to schedule an appointment for another fill really soon. I don't want to be too tight but the holidays are coming and I don't want to gain. Thank God I have not experienced any weight gain in a while.

It's official now, I'm going to do this surgery!! I have been on a long hard journey since April of 2010, and alot of it was my own fault for it taking so long. I went through a lot of soul searching to figure out if this surgery was really what I wanted to do or not, and I finally told myself I was in it for the long haul. I have struggled with my weight since I was about 8-9 years old, and I've always been the "thicker" type. I thought that I was alot bigger than I really was, and looking back at pictures of me in high school and my early 20's make me cringe to think that I really thought that I was FAT then. I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) in 2000 and got all of the fun side effects of that-weight gain, insulin resistance, and facial hair. It's great fun to say the least. Thankfully I was able to have 3 healthy girls and didn't struggle with in fertility with it. I went from 145 lbs when I got pregnant in 1999 to 200 lbs by the time I had had my 3rd baby in 2003 (yes, I had 3 kids in 4 years). The struggle was on after that. I stayed around 200-225 until last fall, and I started having alot of swelling in my lower legs and hands. I quit smoking in March of this year, and since then I've gained 42 lbs between that and the swelling, I have massive pitting edema in my lower legs and my hands swell really bad as well, and the only reason that the dr's can come up with is due to weight gain. I was diagnosed with Obstructive sleep Apnea in Dec. 2010, and then with Barrett's Esophagitis in April of 2011, and I've had GERD since 2002. They put me on high-blood pressure medicine to try and help with the leg swelling, along with diuretics. AND, I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel and tennis elbow in both arms this week. So, I wear a CPAP to bed with 2 wrist braces, I have to wear compression stockings all day to keep swelling down, I take 6 pills a day for my stomach problems and I pee absolutely constantly. Yeah, I'm ready to get all of this taken care of. My sister asked me today if I thought that I really needed this surgery. I told her that I was tired of feeling like I was trapped in this body, like my fat was in control of me. I'm tired of being terrified to go to the dr, because they're going to tell me that something else it wrong with me. I'm scared to death of the first 6 weeks after surgery, but I know that those 35 days will be the best hardest days of it. I'll live, I'll get through it. I'm ready to feel like me again, to feel like I'm in my skin again. Not this fat person's body who has no control. I'm scared,but I'm finally going to do this! Let me know all the little details that I need to know...don't hold back!!
