I deal with major major foot pain since a bad break three years ago.
I've just had to switch up how I work out. A lot of floor exercises, arm and tummy seem to be what I can do.
When I get time, the pool is nice.

Exercise alone does not cause weight lose, reduction in calories does.  You can't exercise so you have to cut calories, I mean CUT them, 1000 calories a day will make you lose weight, maybe slowly but it will happen.  I get you had a goal and wanted to meet it but this isn't a race, there is no finish line, this is for life, you need to do whatever it takes to weigh what you want forever.  It is all up to you and how much effort you want to put into reforming your eating.  It can be done, if you want it bad enough.  I lost 100% of my weight and kept it off, I am 137lbs 8 years post rny, by sheer determination to never fail.  You can too.

Im 2 years postop and still no where near my "goal"...keep plugging away, keep track of what you are doing, get what exercise you can and dont allow yourself to give up.

It's important to remember that the single biggest factor by far in weight loss is controlling the calories you eat.  Exercise helps but no amount of cardio is going to make up for a poor diet.

If I were you I would focus my efforts on my eating habits first.  Best wishes to you.

And nit everyone gets to goal at exactly one year. I still have twenty pounds to go to reach my doctors goal. But I keep working at it. I haven't lost since November-December. So keep logging your food intake. You can still lose

Go to the doc, seek out a dietician, start measuring and tracking. It won't comte off as fast as it did the first six mo but it can come off. I'll bet if you start tracking today you'll be surprised at what you are putting in daily.

I only exercised about 2 weeks of my journey and am below goal because I still follow the rules, and my rules are stricter than my surgeons because his counts in the exercise he recommends.

Don't give up. You still have some malabsorption more than likely and definitely still have restriction. Use it.
