I suggest you go back to square 1. If you need to, go back to the liquid diet or at least the full liquid diet.

Weigh and measure everything that goes into your mouth. Get that Water in. Get the Protein in first.

Keep a food and exercise diary! Walking is better than anything to get started! YOU CAN DO IT!

The latest study out said that 36% of us regain all or most of our weight back. This is because we don't change our life style and the way we think about food. . We go back to way we were. This sleeve we got is only a tool. NOT a cure. I would go back to your doctor and talk to them. If you went to Mexico. Go see a dietitian. They will help you get back on track.

You have just made the first step now. Now get out there and finish it. We will be here for you.

I agree. You may not have to go all the way back to liquids, but Portion Control seems like a logical place to start.

That and lots of Water. Oh, you so do not want to go backwards!!!

Good luck to you. It will be work, for sure, but so worth it. Think of all you have gained by being normal sized!!!

Thanks I thought about calling my doctor back tomorrow. I was exercising a lot then I stopped. What is the best liquid Protein for us to drink?

The best is whey Protein isolate. My top 2 recommendations are Unjury® and Syntrax Nectar®

I'd also recommend getting an accountability partner. One that will be honest with you when you start down the wrong path.

You can do it. You still have your tool, you just have to get back on track.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
