Sleeved Jess

Yes I totally understand where everyone is coming from. My issue has always been the sweets and whenever I begin eating sweets again I regain and I’m so disappointed in myself. I will say I Started a vegetable and protein diet reboot back in March of 2020 and by June I was down the 40 lbs that I had gained as well as I had finally gotten below my smallest size. When I first had the surgery I stalled at about 243 and then maintained for four years at around 250-260. When I started this reboot diet March of 2020 ( five years post op) I was about to get down to 229 and that’s lower than I had ever been. So I say from my experience that you can do it if your body will respond! Go for it and if it doesn’t work that’s when you may need to reach out to your Bariatric doctor for redirection. I honestly thought that I wouldn’t be able to get the weight off again. I feel so blessed! I have recalls struggled these past few years after having my kids with keeping myself on track and caring for my sleeve. I want to make it my focus again! Who’s with me?!!!

Hey I’m just finding this post from October 27th 2014. I had my surgery on this exact date and I have not used this website yet. I wanted to reach out to any of you who still frequent Bariatric pal for some support from people who had the sleeve back when I did. I was very young and didn’t have a support group and I wish I had one then. I’m hoping to get back on track and to have help from people who are just a far out as I am! God bless and I hope to chat with all of y’all soon. Jess
