10 yrs post op... anyone else

Hi, am 9 years post op and had a regain too.
I recently rejoined OH and joined a group called Back on Track Together (BOTT) just about a week or so ago. I started with the 5dpt about 3 weeks ago and am down 14 pounds now. I need to lose about 29 more. So far just checking in at OH everyday and seeing what the other BOTT's are eating reminds me each day that I had weight loss surgery and I need to eat a certain way, It's just too easy after multiple years to go back to life before WLS. Good luck! Francie

Wow, see I'm only 2 1/2 years out and have just gained back 30 lbs and really never lost the last 20 lbs. I think I'm going to try the 5 DPT and see if that gets rid of my carb fetish.... Wish me luck, I'll stay in touch...

I havent been on here in forever, but have started back the last couple weeks. I had my RNY 12/18/08, lost 170 lbs. I have since slowly found myself falling back into old habits. I gained a little over 50lbs. I started the 5 day pouch test and it REALLY helped me. I have lost 13 lbs in 11 days. I just started back preparing my recipes and doing the water, protein, veggies, low carbs and walking. I feel so much better again. Just we cant beat ourselves up over this....I think I have had a worst time mentally with it then anything...because we are all human, we all make mistakes and we are going to have tough times in this weight loss battle. I just know I didnt have this surgery to gain it all back and I refuse to!!!  I think this website is the best support system to have for us, because we are all going through the same thing. I always always feel better after getting on here... Hope everything goes well for you Tracy!! Hope to "talk" to you soon!!!
