weight gain and tubal ligation!

It"s trure I wish I'd researched it more(procedure) more.I have gained 35 pounds since my TL in '05. I have done every diet and calorie counting.I joined 3 gyms and I am still overweight. I didn't know all of this was going to happened.Most of my friends got liposuction and they look fantastic...

I have gained 13 lbs. since having a c-section and a tubal. I have always been 103 to 110 my whole adult life and now I don't even recognize my body. It's is veru upsetting to me ans noone seems to understand. They think I'm either selfish for feeling fat because of havng 4 beautiful boys, that I am closet eating!!!! Please tell me i'M not crazy and there is someone ekse struggling like me!!!?!!

you are not crazy... with my last child (i have 3) i got a tubal.. and i can not drop the 30 lbs i gained in pregnancy... My son will be 3 in dec. and i am still the same weight since his birth.. i workout 5 to 6 days a week and am very careful with what i eat.. u are not alone.. i am still trying to figure out what went wrong.. next stop is a hormone doc.. hope this will help.. it is very depressing :(

I have and then some other problems too Dr. seem to not care and tell me its all in my head but its not I hate this

Hello Ladies I hope you are reading this post or come across this post soon, my name is Elizabeth Bell and Im a Beachbody Health & fitness coach and I too am a mother of two I also had my tubes tied after my second child. Ive come across your questions and answers because i too have experienced what you guys are going through or have gone through. After I had my tubes tied I didnt notice anything different shortly after like weight gain, I actually lost all my baby weight and shrunk back down to my normal size, but maybe a month or so after having my second child and having my tubes tied I noticed I was gaining weight left and right and I went from being 153 to 178. I was so depressed and angry that I had gained so much weight, my hormones I felt were really out of whack and I was moody and the weight just would not go away. But one day I decided to make a promise to myself that I would start doing something to help my situation so I started doing little exercises here and there i would eat better foods and all that had really good results I just noticed it takes alittle longer for the weight to leave. Well I recently came across a fb page of a beachbody coach, I asked what being a coach was and how i could become one, I signed up and since then which was a month ago Ive lost my weight faster than I thought I would. I became a beachbody coach so I can you know pay it forward to anybody and everybody that wanted that fresh "FIT" start in life. I know how hard it can be for women but for the ones that had this procedure done to lose the weight that they have gained and I want to help you shed those pounds and get back on that healthy and fit trail and looking good in those jeans :) I would love the opportunity to get to know you ladies on a personal level, hear your stories and get you back on the right track.

Ive has the same problem i was always 135 pounds even after all 3 of my kids about a year after my son was born I blew up ive dieted exercized damn near starved myself half to death and nothing helps im not gaining any more thankfully but im also not able to loose any weight either pleas please please if anyone has found something that works please share im only 26 amd im very embrassed of my weight and so are my kids.. please

I'm the same! Always struggled to gain weight never gone over 9 n half stone n never really gone over 10 n half  at 9 months preg! Guess what I was sterilized 6 months ago and I've gained over a stone! Something ain't bloody right! Lol I'm happy I've gained a bit of weight but every time i weight myself I'm getting heavy, I'm now 69 kg when I was sterilized they weighed me in at 59kg!

YES!! if I had known the side effects in this light I may not have had the procedure.  I was a fit 5'10 170lbs  and now after 3 yrs Im down from 255 lbs to 230 and no matter how  I adjust my diet  and physical activity  its not coming off. As well my blood pressure has increased as well  and I take vitamin B injections to try and combat bouts of depression .   I  only had the 2 small tubal clips installed.. my over all health is suffering greatly from my seeming inability to increase my metabolism or loose this weight.

Hi Janine my name is Elizabeth Bell I was wondering if you have a facebook page if so message me its elizabethbellsfitnessgroup, we cant use websites or emails on this site, but I would love to discuss this more with you. I too have been in this same situation I had my tubes tide in '07'. But message me and we can talk more. I would like to help you. Have a nice day.:-)

I' m havin similar problem I got my tubal ligation in 2007 I gain more weight, in some area on my bump,my tummy,armpit,knees etc.& my fat is very strong like a boll I'm woring so much my bady is becoming a handicup,I wish there can be a solution for this

Hi, the same thing is happening to me, what do we do.

I had my t.l. a year ago. I have constantly been gaining weight I was a happy 150 at 5feet 11 so I was happy. since then iv gained 46lbs I'm miserable I look like I am pregnant. All the weight is in my belly. I barely eat an goto the gym an track dailey with a thousand cal diet. It makes me depressed to try on clothes an I am getting to the point that I just want to give up. You anyone has a answer to this I'd love to know.

IM in same situation as you , I was happy at 165 5'10" I worked as yard hand in lumber yard and was active search and rescue .. now Im wondering how long my knees will last if I cant drop the almost 60 lbs Ive aquired in the 4 yrs since my TL... Ive tried everything but seeing a endocrinologist ... the shame factor is the hardest.. people look at me and I feel they think " what a fat lazy cow " ...my 10 yr old has more in her lunch than I eat in a day ...I walk everywhere..the emotional side is so hard to take .. cause my image in my mind doesnt match what my body realy is.

Hi I'm glad to read I'm not alone.I've always been active was a size 8 after both children.after being sterilised in 2011 not only is my belly button scarred and twice the size, my dissolvable stitches were huge and had to be removed.my stomach is enormous.I've always been able to pull my tummy in flat but not since the op. Some days I look 8 months pregnant.I've cut out wheat, gluten, dairy, butter, and work out at least 4 times a week but I'm very upset and embarrassed about my weight. I also now have a roll of flab over my bikini line which I never had before either! My scar is still sore after 18 months and I think my tummy muscles have been cut and not knitted back right. The muscles down each side of the tummy are still very firm but not where I've been cut.I wish I never ever had this done I feel I've been butchered and I too get pain in the very lower right hand side. I'm not giving up though I'm trying to do lots more exercise and if I find something that is successful I will let you know.

I had a tubal done after my 5th baby. Never did I have a problem losing weight nor did I EVER have weight gain in my belly other then pregnancy...I now have weight gain in my belly and I am sure it is because I had my tubes tied...so upset about this!
