I'm in the process of resetting my sleeve. I have read on how to do this. I'm going to mimic the post op diet. Not sure if i will lose the same amount. Anyone else done this?

I am currently doing this. I had my Sleeve back in December of 2012 and had lost around 160 lbs. Unfortunately, I slowly over the years had gained about 100 of that back. So about a month ago I decided it was time to fix myself again. So I started following my post op diet again and then into my regular diet, as it is I have lost around 15 pounds so far in this new round, find i'm not having any difficulty following the old diet plan so far. I guess we will see what happens.

I am about to get the sleeve. What do you mean by "resetting"?

When people feel they have gone off plan they restart it by going through all the steps
Some from the preop diet through the post op diet phases some only through the post op diet phases as directed initially by their surgical team

I hear it works but will depend on many factors
How far out you are from surgery, if you actually have more weight to lose vs skin, etc

I’m almost 4 years post op. I have indulged in to much alcohol and put a lot back on. So to reset my sleeve, I’m doing all the post op food stages again. Clear, liquid, purée, soft, normal foods.

@Richard Foor

hey dude - i remember you.:) sorry you are having regain problems. sad you gained

about 100 lbs back - good you have kept about 60 lbs off!! It's taken you about

five (5 years) to get back on course. BUT it could have been longer. Fifteen lbs gone!!

You are making your kids (and yourself) proud. Keep up the good work. I hope to see

less and less of you. Newbie alert, newbie alert - you must remain diligent with your

eating/drinking for the rest of your healthier, happier, longer life.

good luck

kathy

congrats

      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.
