I had surgery on 11-4-2020 I was 512 when I started and I’m down to 395. I can’t seem to lose anymore weight. I have given up on myself and I don’t know how to get my drive back. Any suggestions or advice would help tremendously. Has anyone else have this issue. My surgery was BPD-DS
 
One of my classes for social work aka counseling people stood out beyond all other information. It takes 10 positive affirmations to counter 1 negative remark. Whether it is self talk, rotten coworkers, mean people or even people who say they love you saying that one negative remark. Read Diane’s book learn how to turn negatives into positives. It took nearly 15 years of counseling for me to get beyond…if your own mother doesn’t love you how can you love yourself?
 
This can happen and it might be time to change some routines around. You can't knock yourself too much it has been two years and usually at the two year mark our bodies tend to reach a plateau. 117 lost is a big accomplishment and you might just need to give your system a boost. some of the weightless shots have been helpful in kickstarting the wight loss again. I would suggest talking to your PCP and asking some questions. Changing your workout routine and going back to basics might also be an option. Good luck on your journey.

I get what you're saying. I know I'll hit a plateau and the thought of that is a little daunting because I know I can get discouraged easily. I see the back-on-track programs have people go back to full liquids for a time to take you back to the time of the best weight loss and easier to follow daily. If I'm having a bad day I go back to full liquids and it gives me a feeling of control. Please know that I have not given up on you. I'll stand in the gap until you can stand too.
