Rootman 1,101 Posted December 14, 2012 Any regain at all? Not till just this fall / winter, seems the cut back in exercise (too cold and dark to ride my bike) and the holiday food have led me to put on about 2 pounds. I am trying to cut back, to lose it again, it's a LOT easier than it used to be, at least I don't have the constant gnawing hunger like I used to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*susan* 1,709 Posted December 14, 2012 I am over three years out and still in love with my sleeve. I was a band to sleeve revision and have no regrets at all. I can eat more than I was able to the first year, but still not anything close to what I did pre-surgery.

Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted December 14, 2012 I'll be 4 years this April too. I can eat way more than I could at one year, but I don't think I can eat too much. If I think I can eat more, and try, I am really very uncomfortable and I hate that feeling. I hate being too full. So I have learned where to stop. I have regained about 10 lbs over my lowest weight but I have been this weight for a year. I don't seem to gain or lose, even if I try to lose. I am a pretty happy sleever.

Heatherr 149 Posted December 14, 2012 I'm only 1 1/2 years post, so I'm not sure this is worthy but you wanted more stories. I have a 40f bougie. I can eat more now, but not enough that would allow regain unless it was in french fries and ice cream. I am still losing but only about a pound per month. I am near goal, so I expect to stop losing soon. I can eat whatever I want, but I still stick to eating healthy. I had an oreo last week, first cookie in a very long time. I can eat 2 eggs and 2 pieces of turkey bacon for Breakfast. I am full off that and won't want to eat again for hours. For lunch I often have a piece of fish with veggies, salad with some grilled chicken or shrimp or half a sandwich or a cup of Soup. I can eat 6oz of Protein, but I tend to eat 4oz and have some veggies with it. It also changes. There are days I can eat a slice of thin crust pizza (minus the crust) and other days I can only eat half. Grapes fill me up fast, apples too. I won't regain. I just won't. I got into a size 8 last week, and by get into, I mean it fit. If I stay this size forever, I'm happy. If I lose another 10, I'm happy, but I won't ever get bigger than I am now. I still weigh daily and will adjust as needed. 2 Ms skinniness and Threetimesacharm reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Papa Jack 86 Posted December 16, 2012 Not 2 years year more like 1 and a half. I eat anything I want. Just can eat a lot which is great. I can eat a sandwhich if I eat slow. I do not eat salads. They fill me up to fast. I stay away from soft drinks. If I gain 2 pounds I can skip a meal & it goes away the next day. Love it. Just like Rootman said it is a lot easier.
