Please Help!!

I had the Roux-N-Y in 2005. I had lost a little over 100 pounds. I had gotten down to 180 pounds and no matter what I did, I couldn't get any lower than that. That was ok though, I felt better than I had in years! I thought I looked good too!! Any way, I had a complete hysterectomy in Dec. 2011, quit smoking in Jan. 2012,  had a hernia repair in Nov. 2012, knee arthroscopy in May 2013, and will be requiring another one. since January of 2012, I have gained back 70 pounds. I am again, understandably, depressed and feeling down. My ability to move is restricted because of my knee, and I was in a car accident in 2009 that caused some chronic pain to my back and left shoulder. I am wondering if anyone can help me and point me in the direction to start the weight loss again. Would it be possible to lose the weight rapidly (like when I first had the surgery) if I were to have protein shakes for meals?? Please...any posts, guidance...it is all appreciated. I am feeling like quite the failure right now. And, to top it all off, the more weight I gain, the less my body cooperates with exercise..

The only think can think to is to find a swimming pool. and Swim . If you can swim then walk back and forth  in the pool it works.  When feel stuck in situation that seem hopeless. Remember,Your still better off than you were. Nothing is hopeless. your just to have see a doctor about your pain and have start you on a exercise program that works for you. Remember, God make no mistakes.  He made you the way he wanted you. To him you are perfect in every way.

Sadly there is no quick way to lose weight. Stop the excuses... I used them also. Since my surgery in 2003 I have had three hernia and total knee replacement on both , elbow reconstruction. That had nothing to do with my  weight. Now for good news . You know what you did wrong. Swim , water walk if you can't swim. Hotels will let you swim if you don't have a Y. Start all over. Stop scolding yourself. You are worth putting yourself first. Get moving throw away all the crap in the house and do it!!you can so do this.hugs
