Hello Everyone I was banded 2010. Lost 25lb from date of surgery till i started solid foods (1 week before I was allowed to). It stopped my weight loss completely and took another year to loss another 25lb. Here I am now and gained that 50lb back and now having a sleeve and i need it to be successful. I already feel like I failed and I can't go through it again. over the last 4 years of the band i have had times of great motivation and going well and times of bad habits and eating ice cream a few times a week. I want to hear from band to sleevers...what made it different? My plan is to: 1. take my post-op diet to the extreme. last time i ate before i should have this time i want to stay on 3 Protein shakes for 1.5 months (this was approved by dietitian) 2. after 1.5 months still have 2 Protein Shakes and only 1 meal per day until i reach my goal has anyone else done this? does it seem crazy? i am so desperate to be successful that i will do anything. I am scared if I am not super strict and allow myself any indulgence I will go right back to eating crap 24/7.
