At the beginning of last year I decided to become vegan because one of my coworkers had done it and lost a lot of weight. Ive never been really in to eating dead animals, so I decided to give it a try. Well I was doing something wrong because I gained weight. Then I started getting this awful pain in my side in june. Turns out my gallbladder wasnt working; doctor said it probably never had. So I'd gotten it removed.
I was hardly eating for a month after the surgery and lost around 30 lbs. I started to eat normally again but suddenly gained back more than half of the weight and was having crazy anxiety attacks and then my gums started bleeding. I went to the dentist and she said I might have a vitamin deficiency. I started taking a multivitamin, a prenatal vitamin, and fish oil.
My mouth healed for a while but then it came back a month later. I decided to revert to vegetarianism to get more vitamins, but then the bleeding gums came back the next month. I've also been battling to keep from going back to my original weight, but don't really have the energy or time to do any kind of working out besides my stocking job that I do 12 hours a day.
TLDR; Any advice for someone who keep running into health issues and gaining weight as a vegan/vegetarian?
