How do I get control Back?

I am 2 yrs and 4 months out from RNY. I did great and lost a grand total of 130 lbs....no problems. However, 13 months ago my husband died very unexpectedly. These 13 months have been the most horrible time in my life. I've seen a grief counselor and that has helped. The problem is I've gained 25 lbs since my husband died. I'm out of control. I'm not doing anything correctly....vitamins, water, protein, exercise...nothing! I just went back to my surgeon (1st time since husband died) and am trying to get back on track (if I can even remember what that is). I am going to start going back to my support group, as well as a psychologist that works with gastric bypass patients. I even joined a Weight Watchers at work program so that I could have some limitations and accountability. Has anyone else out there gained a significant amount of weight back and have you been able to get it off again? I really need some encouragement because I'm feeling like a total failure.
