    I am having 2-3 days a week I eat a lot of carbs. The rest of the week my macros are balanced. I keep losing and gaining the same pounds. It is truly emotional.

    You have done fantastic. Give yourself credit for the pounds down. I know a regain can mess with your head. The work never stops after goal.

    My surgical team told me a 15 to 20-pound bounce after goal is common. I lost a regain in my third year. It was not easy to get my discipline back. (I did get the weight off) Five years out, I’m up 10lbs. I'm back eating my plan. My weight loss is at a snail’s pace.

    39 year old female - VSG April 2018

    S.W.: 241
    L.W.: 172
    C.W.: 180

    It has been a stressful 6 months and then all of the goodies of the holiday...it’s time to nip the regain in the booty.😉

    My personal goal is 169 so I plan to be there by next summer, or hopefully sooner. If I can get to 169, I plan to get my arms done.

    RNY 5/23/2011

    Starting weight-310.0
    Lowest weight-152.0
    Current weight-168.6
    Goal Weight: 155.0 (maybe 150...we'll see)

    Got back on track on 12/1 when I noticed I was inching toward 180 (weighed in at 178.2 that morning) and no way I'm allowing myself to get "that close" to 200!! Went back to basics, journaling, water, no white flour and no white sugar. Also started clean 16:8 IF (sometimes 18:6), but always clean) and that has really helped me get my mindless snacking under control. I think I was probably consuming an additional 1,000 calories in just snacking alone!! Down almost 10 pounds since the 1st and feeling great!

    Note: this is not the first time in nearly 9 years that I've worked on losing regain. It's real. It's manageable. Just as long as you don't let it get away from you. I typically like to stay within a 10 pound window and this time I let that window get WAY bigger at almost 25 pounds, but it's still better than working off a 50 or 75 pound regain.

    Current weight 245

    Stuck in a stall right now (for the last 3 months) due to inching back into emotional eating. Getting back on track now so I can start losing again.

    I had the sleeve done on December 2nd, 2019. I'm female and I started at 294.4 and am at 272.8 and still losing.

    My biggest obstacle besides getting enough water each day is getting enough protein. I hate protein shakes and I can't eat very much right now. Feel free to add me.

    I understood that there could possibly be a weight gain, but I have allowed myself to go way overboard. I really hate to tell people I had the bypass surgery as I am embarrassed with the weight I have gained. I need to get my head on and use this tool I was given to assist with the weight loss process. Thanks for letting me vent

    Hi I had my surgery October 3rd 2019. My highest weight was 270, I lost 40 pre surgery using MFP, and now I weigh in at 197. I have hit a plateau, partially because of Holiday Food Choices and partially because I don't know why??? I am walking 3 plus miles a day with a calorie intake between 700 and 900. Any advice???
