Almost 4 years out
Hey! I will be 4 years out this month also. I JUST made goal last week I think it was? I swear for a good 2+ years I just fluctuated back and forth and then back in November I gained up to 190 and freaked out. So I TOTALLY went back to the basics and I made it to goal. Everyone keeps asking what I did. I've always been great at counting calories but I was eating badly so I changed it up and ate more healthy and often and viola! I have an email of the things that I do that I've sent to like 20 people I swear. Some are sticking to it and doing well (non are WLS patients but a diet is a diet). If you want I can send it to you. You CAN get there. You just have to STAY consistent and be totally diligent.
Congratulations at making it to 4 years and not have gaining it ALL back!

Me too. I was 341 on surgery day got down to 191 then I have grazed my way back to 238. I think I still have pretty good restriction, I don't drink with my meals and wait an hour after I eat to start drinking, and I still drink a gallon a day of calorie and caffeine free liquids. But I know my grazing is the problem. I'm so full of self loathing it's very depressing. We were given a tool and if we use it properly it will do what it is meant to do. So... I'm sorry I don't have any good advice for you, but I totally understand how you're feeling... Love, Jenn
