Nooooope

I was actually thinking about this myself. I am almost 3 months post op, but was curious if anyone had started other weight loss programs back again after surgery. I haven't gained anything yet, but I haven't lost as much as I feel I should have yet either. (I have lost 20lbs in nearly 3 months - which compared to others stories is significantly behind). I went as far as to look around for online weekly check in groups for VSGers, but I haven't really found anything. I don't particularly care to go to my facility here, they only have meetings like twice a year and I feel I need something more than that. Keep us posted on any info you find!

I was sleeved on 7/27 and have zero regrets about the surgery. However, I have to admit I have already fallen off the band wagon a few times with my choice of foods-already. I know I can do this and have been rooting myself on even through the tough times, but I have myself wondering if I haven't already ruined my tool. Is anyone familiar with VSG enough to know if you can actually "stretch" it? I know that it naturally will stretch, never to the size it was, but over time it will stretch normally. However, my question is more for the --- I have made bad food choices, is it ruined --- category. I just wanted to see what others say out there, hopefully without the "you have a great tool now, you need to watch what you eat" - because, I know this already. I am only human. I appreciate any feedback or stories from others who may have experienced something similar. Thank you so much! And good luck to you all! Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app

I did well for the first month but I feel it coming back. I wish you the best. It's comforting to know that we are not alone. Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app

I think what she was getting at is the under tone question - did I ruin it? But I totally get where you're coming from. Although my binging is no where near what it was before, I still need to work on it. I've found, though, that therapy doesn't really help. Have you experienced binging at all? It would be unique to get a male perspective. Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you! I guess I worry too much over things. But I am the kind of person who screws things up super quick. Any advice for staying on track? I'm going to whip out the ole post surgery paper and follow it to a T. Sent from my Pixel XL using BariatricPal mobile app
