WEIGHT GAIN AFTER SURGURY

YIKES!  I am five and a half years post op and have gained back 20 lbs.  Help!  I need to get back on track!

I was 6 years out yesterday . . and I had gained back 22lbs . . get a hold of it now . . find Pam T's blog, she has a back to basics that you need to print and follow.

Are you grazing? . . I had turned to bad carbs . . pretzels . . and now I am off all sugar and sugar and feeling like a million bucks . . I have taken off what I gained and I am heading toward new weight.

You can do this . . if I can.

Yea Kristy!

I'm so proud of you getting back on track... loosing what you gained +, you are my hero!

congratulations on your longevity to both of you! You have done fantastic.

I must say that 20 and 22 lbs in that length of time sure beats what it could have been if you had not had the surgery.  With all the comorbidities you two may not have made it this far.

So Your both an inspiration to me who is only a little over a year out!

I was about 3-1/2 years out and started gaining back... After only about 6 months, I had put back on about 50 pounds... But I was diligent and worked hard, got more activity and took that off, plus another 20 pounds or so.....  You can do it... Just don't let it get out of control, you gain control of it NOW!!!!  It is always going to be an uphill battle in my opinion, but we can do it with commitment and discipline.... Good Luck....

 

HUGS,

 

Good for you!  Congrats on getting it back under control,

I do crave carbs!  Espiecially in the winter time.  But also sugar.  Never got over that sweet tooth of mine.  My plan is to get back "on the wagon" right now.  Thanks for your suggestions and good words.  :)

I've tried to learn from those who have 'been there, done that'!  I'd listen to Kristy....mind you I haven't, but I do see the intelligence in her strategy :), I'm over 3 years out and have regained about that much too.

Good luck,

Edie
