weight gain

Hi. I'm new here. Been out of surgery for 5 years. Had the band it slipped and then got the sleeve. That didn't seem to work. I have gained back most of my lost weight and it is sooo depressing. I am so addicted to food I dont I know what to do! It seems undo-able all over again. Help please.

I had the sleeve surgery about a year ago. I lost weight before and after the surgery, but I have stopped re f losing and have actually gained some weight back. I am now searching for some new motivation. I can not exercise more because I have diabetes foot problems, but I know there is a motivation I just have to keep looking for it. Good luck!!!

Its so hard.

It is hard. But it is worth it to lose weight because I know I am missing out on so much. I am participating so much more with the weight I have lost. Keep searching for a way to lose. Exercise is the best simply because it gets you away from food and helps to keep your mind off food. Good luck one more time.

If you feel your addicted to food you might want to seek Professional help with the addiction before you try anything else. Food can be just as addicting to some people as drugs are.

Have you tried drinking a big glass of water before eating or when you think you feel hungry? Sometimes you are more thirsty than
hungry. Our overeating brain mentality fools us into thinking we have to eat when we really don't. Also, try protein shakes or bars.
I use Unjury powder or Premier Protein liquid. They taste great. Atkins is another good place to get high protein products. They
even have candy & desserts that might help you. Go to some of the bariatric sites for products & help
