GAINED 8 POUNDS BACK! :(



Recommended Posts

I know that it is "normal" even my dr says it is but I am not ok with gaining 10 pounds back!! I have been so upset today that Ive cried! Has this happened to any of you?!!? If so how did you get it back together? I know that I have does a few things that I should not have but over all I have not been doing what I would consider bad enough to gain this much! HELP!!

So you do know how it happened, right? So just try to get back in there and work that sleeve like you did to lose the 139lbs. Don't give up. Cry if you have to, it's cleansing to the system and lets out the pent up emotions.

Yea I guess realistically I know how I've gotten to this low point. I'll have to just get back to basics

Well try not to see it as a low point, but maybe as just part of the journey. A real low point maybe gaining back a significant amount of what you have lost. You caught it at 8 pounds. You are ahead of the game. Peace

Yes, it happened to me -- funny, for me it was exactly 8 lbs too!

And yes, the answer is to get back to basics :)

And, since getting back to basics I have lost that 8 plus another 10, and now I know for sure it's in my power to get to goal.

Good for you for saying +10lbs is NOT ok.

You have the power to do this too!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
