I am new to this site. I just received my first order and I was under the impression that everything was going to be "carb friendly", which in fact, most everything has excessive carbs that I could have purchased at any local store. Any recommendations on products that are offered on here that are no high in carbs?

I had the gastric sleeve in December of 2017. I have gained 25 pounds back. I don't really get hungry, but my metabolism drops, which in turn, causes me to eat impulsively, which of course, created the weight gain. Trying to figure out a "diet" that will help me meet all my needs and goals. Any advice?

I was looking for the way to introduce myself and couldn't find it. Your situation scares me. I don't have any advice, only concerns. I don't have a date for my surgery yet but it should be set in about one month.

Did you lose a healthy amount of weight? Are you still at a net loss? From all you've been through are you able to find the resources that will help you to get back on track?

Would you do it again? What advice do you have for someone about to undergo this type of surgery? Sorry I have nothing to offer you, but you have already helped me. I want this procedure to fix my weight issues once and for all. Knowing that can't happen, I wonder how difficult it will be to maintain a significant loss through the surgery over time.

I am older now with other health problems making it more difficult to improve my overall health even with wls. It is going to be a battle and I have to prepare for that thanks to what you wrote.
