My surgery was Jan 2005. Alot of stuff has happened since then my smallest that I got down to was 230. Well now I am back up to 282. I am trying to regain control but it seems as if I have let all my old habits come back. I am complusively eating again.... and I hate it. I have started finding my self eating again anytime I am bored or overly tired. So I try not to let myself get there but man its hard. Does anyone else or has anyone else had this happen?

Any advice on what to do? I am scared that I will get back up to my heaviest weight.

I too have found myself gaining a bit of weight from 225 to now 255, that really hurts. I worked so hard (and so did you). I'm really searching myself for why I"m eating, and trying to remind myself of my goals, and what I enjoyed doing at my lowest weight. I am now looking into looking for support and meal planning to lose the weight AGAIN. I'll be your buddy!

It looks like there are quite a few of us out there at this stage.  I had my surgery Jan 2005 and lost 150 lbs.  I have kept it off, but recently put on  7 pounds.  I don't want it to go farther.  We need HELP!

Sounds like typical gain from 20 -50lbs I"m seeing in those about 4 years out... do we simply get complacent?  I don't know ... I have to say that I have made LIFE LONG changes but I guess not enough of them.  I still do my vitamins and protein faithfully but snack way too much I know and well the gym and I have never had a long lasting relationship but I have a co-worker that has been encouraging me to go with her 3 times a week and I think that is a step in the right direction even if I haven't been able to go with her all 3 times each week.  I at least make it once a week.  I was thankful for 4 yrs weight loss was not on my New Years Resolution list/thoughts but it was this year ... I want to loose 30 lbs could loose 40lbs without any concern from the doctor but I'm comfortable with 30.   I had studied personal friends that had the weight loss and knew weight gain was common but I just knew I would be and do better than them but here I am ...

I'm sorry you are going through this.  However, as I am in the same boat, it's good to have  company.
I know that I don't drink enough water.  how about you?    I should be walking more, but find there are so many excuses... and I have used them all.   My daughter in law bought me a treadmill... to match hers.   We are trying to encourage each other.

You are not alone.

This is MY problem and others on here have it, too and they have had reconstructive surgery that they RE-LOST ALL THEIR WEIGHT!

 

I'm looking into this and I have just called my surgeon.

 

I will report back when I find out something.

Keep me posted on what you find out. I am considering having something done but unsure what at this point.
Best of luck

 Sista, I feel your pain!  A lot has happened here as well.  Two hurricanes, my husbands bipolar diagnosis after a suicide attempt, I had a hysterectomy and dealt with depression following that (probably hormonal).  I also had to have a blood transfusion and found out I have iron deficient anemia.  I got an IV port put in last year and received iron infusions every week for most of last year.  It has been rough.  I also have returned to my bad habits and gained some weight.  My highest weight was 293, I got down to 189.  I currently weigh 214!  I am scared and bummed and I didn't go through all of this to still be obese!  I am trying to get back on track.  I feel like I never reached my goal.  If I could get off of carbs I might be able to lose some weight.  So, know this, you are not alone.  Maybe we can all support each other.  I feel like I have been making excuses for too long and the time has come to get this done!  I had a dream last week that I woke up and all my weight was back!
