I had lap band in 2009. Went from 400 to 240. Band began to fail. I started having digestion issues. Dr says it MUST come out. Scheduled for RNY on 10/29. Began really dieting in September beginning of September weighed 265, now weigh 269. Why? I weigh everything. Two protein shakes a day. Small snack, and decent dinner. Always under 1200 calories. Way below the 1800 they suggest for my weight. I start liquid diet on 10/15. Just feeling defeated today. Need a personal trainer/ Mentor. Really no luck finding one. Wish WLS had sponsors like OA does. Thanks for letting me vent. See you all on the Losers Bench.

    Hang in there, I suspect it'll get better once you have surgery. In the meantime just stay on plan and don't fret the scale.

    Stick to the plan. I can gain or lose five pounds for absolutely no apparent reason. Long term is what matters.
