Heather, You are looking awesome! What a great post for all of us! You are proof that a regain doesn't mean it's a life sentence of being overweight again. You took charge and used your tool and now look at you! WAY TO GO!

 Hi Missey,

Nice to meet you. Noone wants to think about regain, especially if you are preop or newly sleeved. You have this euphoric feeling that you have this thing whipped at about 9 months out, or at least I did. 

I see alot of people on here talk about eating in "moderation", well that is what led me to the regain. I too thought I could eat in "moderation", but I really needed a structured plan to stick too, and now I am. 90% of the time anyway!

 Your always positive attidude is my inspiration! Do you think my booty is getting too small? I think I am going to stop with the weightloss now.

Not at all, but if you think so then it's time to tone it up which it sounds like it's what you are doing =)

You look great! Amazing results and I commend you for getting "back on the wagon" when you noticed you were going back to old habits.
