I haven't been on here for ages....in the last year I lost my way and had been down to 276 on the lowest end. I am currently up to 288. I would like to blame anything and everything as to why I started gaining weight, but the truth is it was my own doing. After losing 150 pounds, I got comfortable...too comfortable. I started eating fried foods, custard, stopped exercising and stopped thinking about what I was putting in my mouth. I am self aware and and starting my small steps again. First item:

I went for an 18 month post op appointment recently even though it was about a month early. I have lost a total of 151 pounds. I have about 100 pounds to go. I don't have many issues now a days. I will occasionally have this rapid urge to potty after I eat. I still eat about 6-8oz of food on any given meal. I got so use to not drinking with meals that I never even think of doing it.

My blood glucose levels are all under 100 and my HgbA1C was at a 5.4. No real issues aside from sometimes my stomach hates food and it means having

I went in for my official 10 month post op visit that I was suppose to do at 9 months. Anywho, My surgeon was pleased with my progress. He said I didn't need to come back for 6 months and all the labs looked fantastic. Officially the weight is 285. That is a loss of 145 pounds. He did mention now is where the hard work begins as I need to work hard to achieve my target weight of 170-190. All in all I am super pleased with my results. Some might think, "wow 285 is still huge"..and you are

HI there fellow sleevers! I have a question for people 6 months post op and further. I was going through the process really well. 2 days ago dinner came up out of the blue. I didn't think anything of it as I thought maybe i was eating too fast. The following day breakfast also came up out of the blue...same with lunch and dinner. I don't feel ill or anything and I can keep soups and oatmeal down. Pretty odd. Has anyone had this happen to them 10 months post op? I have a MD appt coming up and will
