Discouraged

[LeaMarie617 6]

Here we go ... I've been into this weightless program since June and took a while to lose right but finally lost 15 lbs.. Then told needed a nicotine test so I quit butts 100% to gain 10 lbs back... Now I'm basically where I started and bc I'm not smoking I have a tendency to pick more.. So now my nutritionist keeps putting me off and scheduling monthly visits to see if I lost the weight again I'm not losing and starting to think I'll never get this sleeve

Do you count your calories? Gaining is harder when you are conscious of what you eat in my experience.

[smorvant22 29]

are you pre op or post op?

[Tikvah 70]

Pre-Op. OP seems to be on a six month supervised weight loss regiment (I guess for insurance purposes).

I did the same exact thing...Started all this in March....couldn't get the friggin 10 lbs off...quit smoking in June..finally I got 9 lbs off & they scheduled me for Nov 19th...but now I have gained 4 lbs & I have the 2 week pre-op on Nov 4th & after 4 months of not smoking, I picked 1 up 2 weeks ago & didn't stop until last night..back on the patch!! not easy...wish you luck

Are you drinking lots and lots of Water? Quitting smoking is a bear. But you'll get over the hump with the food replacement. My dad ballooned when he quit. It was about 6 months before he was right. But its the best thing he's ever done.

Yes lots of Water to the point where I think that is where all all my weight is! But seriously I just don't understand y I can't take the next step like I've been seeing the nutritionist since June
