Hi I'm Jackie. I had WLS(VSG) 5 years ago. At 4yrs out I starting gaining . My mistake was not doing my exercise like I was, grazing and drinking wine. I know darn well are all things that were drilled into my head not to do. Well life happens, and here I'm am and 15 lbs are back. I'm less than 5 feet which is very noticeable. I'm going back to basics logging my food and exercising.

    Hi Jackie! I'm 2.5 yrs out from Sleeve surgery, and just recently gained 6.5 lbs back, doing exactly what you did. I'm back to basics now, and i cut out the wine :(

    We've got this! We know what we have to do.. It's just doing it.. :)

    I see these posts were several months ago. How is everyone doing now? Did you lose your gains? I am starting to gain a few and getting concerned.

    @Evey3 - I haven't lost the 6.5lbs that I had gained back in June and now I'm up a total of 10lbs, but it's because i continued the wine, and I am still not exercising consistently. I again, just started back on track and truly tossed the wine (even the social weekend glass). Starting the gym today after work.
