Weight watcher after 1 1/2 years



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried weight watcher afterwards? I’m stuck at a 105lb weight loss and can’t seem to lose anymore doing what I’ve been doing all along?

I haven't tried it since surgery, but in the back of my mind, I thought that I might need to at some point. It's helps me to be held accountable to someone else. Just my 2 cents worth :)

It might help if you’re at a calorie goal that syncs up with their points. Otherwise you’d be below their target consistently with no guidance on how to correct it for appropriate weight loss.

I have a love hate relationship with WW. I know it works for a lot of people but I’ve never found long term success with it.

Go back to your nutritionalist and the surgeon for a plan that's suited to your surgery. You have other tools. Use those tools instead of one that is not really designed for your surgically modified body.

Weight watchers is great for accountability, weigh ins, and learning good information about exercise and health. You will need to modify the program though. I actually go to meetings but I do use calories instead of the freestyle program.

      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.

      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.
