Hi. I'm 2 years out from my sleeve surgery. I was doing very well and slid downhill recently. I was under a tremendous amount of stress and started stress eating. Ive gained 8 lbs. I do not want to gain anymore and really need to lose the 8 I gained. I feel like I'm hungry all of the time no matter what I eat, and yes I've done high Protein. I need to mention that even after the surgery I still needed to eat healthy Snacks in between meals, the whole ghrelin thing didn't apply. I was still hungry. I was down a total of 86 lbs. Now I feel like I'm spiraling out of control and with the holiday's coming I'm getting really nervous. I just can't go back the old me, unhealthy and feeling like crap. Suggestions??

I would suggest going low-carb and journaling everything you are eating and drinking. What kind of exercise are you doing?

I think it's normal for a little bit of "rebound" weight, but you're right to try and get it under control now. I find that when I stick to the super low carb and high Protein diet for a day then the next day I'm not as hungry. Carbs and sugar make me feel like I'm ravenous. It's a cycle.

I'll admit very little exercise. Im taking a class 3 evenings a week and work a full time job plus 3 house cleaning jobs. My class will be done mid Jan and then I'll be hitting the gym.

      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.
