Gained 5 Lbs...



Recommended Posts

And I'm bummed. Funny how as soon as the doctor told me my weight Friday, I instantly felt HUGE because I thought I lost a few pounds, not gained.

And as I sit here at work, my clothes are feeling extra tight...they didn't feel tight last week.

Not giving up though... today is a new day.

Just wanted to share.

Stay motivated! It happens...and it is funny how even a pound or two can change your whole perspective...I experienced this for a month and a half...lost and gained between 2 and 10 lbs with no net loss...very frustrating...hang in there...it gets better...remember it's a journey....

I agree with Kat...there will be fluctuations with your weight. It's important to be aware of everything and how much you eat, and not become obsessed with your scale.

Stay the course; you have already proven you can be successful with loosing weight...and this is definitely a journey, and not an event!

Best wishes as your successful journey continues!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
