I got sleeved 18 months ago and since then I lost about 100 pounds but in the last few months weight loss has stopped and then I began to gain weight I gained about 30 pounds so fast although I keep track of everything and I didn't change anything in my diet I keep sticked to it. I'm so frustrated. then what is the reason of the weight gain then ?

Since you are tracking everything you should be able to pinpoint when the weight gain began and what you were eating/doing when it happened.

Sometimes things change once we transition from losing to maintenance and also when other life events happen

I personally would use the information that I had been compiling to reverse engineer the problem.

Hope you can find a solution soon 💙

From what I understand, weight gain will happen. Its important though to see what the cause is and correct it.

a 10-20 lb gain after hitting bottom is REALLY common. Not inevitable, but it seems to happen to most of us. Could be we get complacent - we aren't as strict with ourselves as we once were - we're not weighing/measuring/tracking our food as carefully and constantly monitoring our weight. I know I sometimes eat things that I NEVER would have eaten during the weight loss phase. At any rate, the only way to lose it is to cut back on calories, unfortunately...

What calorie level are you at? What are you noticing when tracking your food? Are you writing down every single bite that goes into your mouth? Are you still getting in your 64 oz of Water each day? Are you still focusing on Protein? Do you get any exercise?

      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.
