what happens when...

you struggle with the weight gain? and to those who dont know...yes you can gain weight post op. the surgery is not a miracle cure...just a tool to help with forming new healthier habits. you can ruin your tool aka stretch the tummy back out again...you can eat around your tool aka grazing.
wls is not a cure all. it helps limit the amount you can eat at one sitting. you still have to deal with the head stuff. that means you still have to understand why you over ate in the first place.
well back to the initial question about struggling with weight gain...you like every other human who struggles with weight gain puts it in check! get back on the horse and that rah rah stuff!
soooo...i am looking at what i am doing differently and moving back to what helped me be so successful in the first place....hard to do sometimes is to focus on food and planning etc. well hard for me.
