Bridge1967 started following Reset
-
I had surgery in Juky 2022. Lost 40 lbs. Have put 12 back on in the past few months. Too many carbs. I heard that you can "reset" your sleeve through diet. What do you have to do to do that? Do you have to do the liquid diet to do that?

You should start your own topic for October.

Oh, I was at almost the same start Wright! I was 229. Had my surgery 7-12. I'm at 209 right now. Really hoping to get under 200 by Halloween.

Hi, miss! I've only lost 20 lbs too. Thought I was the only one. Lots of people are talking about 30 lbs+.

Ask your dietitian.

I like low fat cheese. Have mozzarella sticks and cheddar sticks. I also found Colby jack cheese in a b=ck. I just cut it up in little cubes and put it in a ziploc in my purse or lunchbox.

To Carlene- Maybe adult coloring? There's an app, but you can do it IRL with colored pencils. Keeps my hands busy. Started using this year's ago when I quit smoking. You may be able to find them in Ealmart, but definitely at a hobby shop like Michael's or Hobby Lobby. -
I have one protein shake each day and then I try to have a serving of fish. Tuna, cod, salmon.tina and salmon you can buy in the starkist packets and make a "salad" with it with fat free mayo, pickle relish, onion and garlic powder. Hope that jelps.

I've been the same weight for a week. In the middle of my 4th ×ek.

Hi, kevin! Did your dietitian set the calorie range? Mine won't. She told me to work on getting 60-90 g of protein. I'm averaging about 700 cal a day. Losing about 1-2 lbs a week. I did lose 10 lbs the first 10 days. Have lost 18 lbs since I started liquid diet 6 weeks ago. Made my first goal of 225 already. I was 252 on my first appointment last June.

I'm a teacher too. Had surgery on July 12th and return on Aug 17th. Kids on Aug 22nd. I tried to get as much summer for my surgery as possible. Surgeon's office was real good working with me.

Oh, Grace, that's so short of time! I hope you have a desk job! I'm lucky, I have a little more than a month from surgery before I have to go back.
