cdouglas35 1 Posted April 28, 2014 I Know several people who had some type of weight lose surgery in the past 10 years. So many of them are gaining. Or trying diet fads. Makes me worry for the future. I want to maintain a lifestyle change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevemode 10 Posted April 29, 2014 Well 20% regain is expected by many programs. Outside of that, I've found that most people regain larger amounts because they stop going to support meetings when they are years out - they really help keep you on track.

menjaz 35 Posted May 1, 2014 My nutritionist said that we should track our food for life. (I use My Fitness Pal) She says that tracking is essential to keeping the weight off long term. It does seem that it's easier to lose, than to maintain. 1 Denise73 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denise73 89 Posted May 23, 2014 Stupid question, but can you regain the weight after VSG. I mean, most of your stomach is gone so there's only so much a person can eat. If losing weight is about Portion Control and you can't each so much, how is it possible to gain weight. A little weight yeah but regain most or half the weight lost? I'm scratching my head.

You can stretch your sleeve out. Also, if you consume HC/HF foods that slide through your narrow sleeve such as ice cream you will regain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
