Hello, I am 3 years post op and when I had surgery I weighed 299 pounds. In September of last year I weighed 209. I was doing the best I could to follow my diet. During the year after surgery my dad passed away and the day my dad passed away in April 2018 I had a hysterectomy, my mother's house flooded and I was taking care of her while she had cancer. I have two special needs children, I lost my house and had to move into a camper in my mother in laws back yard in 2017 we will just say I lived in my in laws back yard in a 32 foot trailer with three kids for about a year. Then in September 2019 I had a mental bipolar moment in 2019 and had to be inpatient treated for about three weeks. While in treatment I had a seizure and had to go to the hospital for that. While I was in treatment I had gotten my weight down to 185 and I felt so pretty. Then I had a seizure and had to go to the hospital for that. The day I get discharged from the hospital my mom gets rushed to the hospital, three weeks in November she passed away. Then in February 2020 I broke my ankle and it now has 13 screws an 2 metal plates. So to my point: I am in mental therapy I am on meds but since my ankle break and my mom passing away I have gained 45 pounds. I am scared of being big again, I look in the and mirror and all I see is me at 300 pounds again. I I am fighting my meds to try to lose weight and I am trying to start a exercise routine and I am trying to eat right, I am worried that I have streched my stomach out. How can I start losing again? Is it to late for me to start again? Am I going to have to get another surgery?
