8 yrs post op.... Need to lose 60 Ibs of regained weight....

sent just now Jo! And yes, regain is most certainly frustrating ! And it's hard. But we can do hard things.

Good luck figuring out what works for you. =)

It is harder to lose later on then it was during the honeymoon period. I think that is why so many stress that there really is a honeymoon faze.

Losing weight later is hard. But it is doable. There are many here who have lost their regain.

For me coming here to give support and get it is crucial for myself to stay in mindset that the surgery wasn't a cure all.

Old habits can come back so easily. We think I can eat that and this. But in actuality we can't.

You can lose regain. You really can. Tracking what you are eating does make us accountable. Also maybe seek the help of a therapist. The surgery was on our stomachs and not our heads.

Take it one meal at a time. Come here and stay here. The vets here really do want to help. Even newbies do also.

Being tied together by one thread of being MO does help us understand more so than the other humans who do not have weight issues.

Life can be really hard sometimes. Stress can happen. But it happens to all of us.

Remember you deserve to be happy and healthy.

Thanks for your encouragement! I'll stay connect here. I know I can do this! It's just that I never really changed my eating. After surgery 145 Ibs literally fell off me lol. I got so small I needed to gain 10-15 Ibs back. Well needless to stay I didn't't stop!

I'm in the same boat. Regained 80 and I'm 8 years out next month. Been trying to lose weight and seem to only lose 10 lbs and can't lose anymore.

Well we can support each other than. Do you work out?

Please PM me as well

Hope it's helpful in some small way. Now I'm wondering if I just should have posted it, lol. =)

Lol Amy I was just thinking to myself "she mine as well go ahead and post it"

I would love the information as well. I'm 5yrs op RNY and have 25lb regain that's just really got me down.
