Stretching out the sleeve...



Recommended Posts

Dr. Mathew Weiner does a very good video about this and explains it very well.

I've heard yes and no. I'm 2 years out and I don't think my stomach has stretched. I can eat about six ounces until I'm full. I still get the restriction when I eat and I'm full.

Interesting video, thanks. For the person who couldn't hear it, if you are watching on your phone you might check if your ringer switch is off, on my iPhone I had to switch that back on to hear it

I love Dr. Weiner. He's got a lot of good informative videos on YouTube.

I've read his book. I like especially what he says about nutrition - and he doesn't mean "lean meats over everything else" when he talks about high quality nutrition.

@Montana Gal, thanks for a fantastic video! As top-notch as my surgeon is, there were points in that video he never made clear to me. They key one for me is [paraphrasing] "Don't worry about your stomach stretching. It will, and that is expected. Worry instead about falling into the same traps that brought you in in the first place." Scary, but that is the core issue for us all, isn't it.

You are welcome, I really like the majority of his videos. Keep up the great work!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
