Gained weight back - getting back on board



Recommended Posts

This year has been ROUGH (lost mom on January 1, 2016) and I pretty much checked out on life, but I'm back! Although I lost weight (about 40 lbs) following my sleeve, it was not drastic and I stalled pretty quickly. My goal was to only lose about 70 - even with that weight loss, I went from size 16w to 12 and the change was noticeable.

I have gained 30 back, but have lost 6 in a week. I'm here for motivation and support, which I lack.

I'm new to this. How do u get to participate in forums? It's asking for password?

Thanks everyone!

same thing here. started at 351 back in june of 2015. got down to 221 by march/april. Got with my ex and lost all motivation. We have been broken up for 3 weeks and i have lost 14 lbs. Im only down to 231 so far but im feeling more motivated and confident by the day. I was eating all the time. way more then i should have. Was so afraid that i stretched out my stomach, but i went on a very strict diet for a couple of weeks and now when i eat its like eating how i was post surgery. Have faith and everything will work out for the best. good luck to you .

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
