ugh! stuck...

[Guest krisRN]

Had my sleeve done October 27th and for the past two weeks I have been stuck - even gained a few pounds back. I am feeling so frustrated! I had lost 41 lbs...

I know some of it is being back to work, my cycle being off, and starting to reintroduce foods. Feel like I should go back to the liquid diet just to gain some control again. Just need to vent.

The 41 lbs is since October 13th... started with the 2 week pre-op liquid diet. I had just started doing purees the day before Thanksgiving. so Thanksgiving dinner for me was mashed potatoes and gravy with a little bit of turkey mixed in. I am now in my last of 2 weeks of soft foods. I'm thinking of going back to the psychologist. I have noticed that even though I'm not hungry, I am still eating more out of habit, and I need to stop! I am defeating myself again as always. Just need to work on the head game!

I'm sure it's a combination of PMS, my body catching up, and eating again... I'll get there.

Have you scheduled your sleeve? Good luck!
