I am 2 years post transplant and have gained 20lbs. I didn't go anywhere, because of covid, but Drs and blood draws. I felt very isolated during this time. The weather was cold and wet so I stayed in and ate things I could now eat again. Plus some of the meds cause weight gain. I have become more active now, and am grateful for the gift I was given. Celebrate your life with your new gift! Start slow with an activity and don't over eat. It will all be worth it.

I too still struggle with weight and depression. I am 33 yrs out, age 60. After 25 yrs I rejected my liver and my team said I was too fat. I got scared and strict diet of no sugar, no white carbs and smaller portions on smaller plates. I lost weight and have to be mindful bc I am a stress and emotional eater. Moderation is key. It will get easier. If u want to eat jump online and distract yourself. Keep us posted. We care
