Red face Hello! I'm new - Post WLS, Pre IP

Hello all!

I'm new to this forum and I know that support/having a place to ask questions can be a huge help in this journey!

my highest weight was 240lbs, then I lost 10 on my own, followed by a loss of 60 more lbs thanks to WLS (lap-band). I've put on 20lbs this year and am back at 190 and not happy about it! I've had a ton of stressful life changes in the past 1.5 years (unemployment, moving 3x, 2 new jobs) and now that life has settled down weight loss is my main goal.

On that note, I've decided to try the Ideal Protein weight loss program. I've made an appointment to attend the seminar Saturday morning and I'm excited!!

Thanks for listening!

Hello and Welcome. Glad you are back on the wagon. This is a great place to come for support! I think they even have a support group for people who had weight loss surgery. Hope your seminar goes well!

yes - the weight loss surgery forum is a little farther down the forum list - and congrats on losing your weight! how long ago was your surgery?

mine was more than 10 years ago, and I had a major weight gain - about 90 pounds, but i've managed to lose just about all of it [still a work in progress].
