You are struggling with the disease of obesity. No need to beat yourself down for having a disease....Right? Many of us have different risk factors and issues to overcome. Surgery does not change are old behaviors. If you are struggling with staying on plan for two days, you may want to find a counselor or therapist to help you battle the mental side of weight loss. Many gave advice on diet, stretching, and staying on plan. So, I won’t give you information you already have. I do understand how emotional it is to have regain. You’re not alone. 4 GreenTealael, VIKING 0424, sillykitty and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aydaa 0 Posted May 20, 2019 Hi, I'm sry to hear that you are upset about gaining weight after gastric sleeve surgery. But I thought gastric sleeve can cure obesity permanently. I searched on Google and I saw this image: As I know in gastric sleeve surgery they remove part of the stomach and it helps patients to eat less and gain less weight. so is this surgery a temporary solution and each person should diet after surgery again? In this case, what's the advantage of these weight loss surgeries? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aydaa 0 Posted May 20, 2019 Thank you Healthy_life2 for the complimentary response. I thought If you do these surgeries you can't eat like before and it helps you to not gain back weights. I didn't know patients must still have a specific diet to maintain their surgery results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Healthy_life2 8,324 Posted May 20, 2019 5 day pouch reset may be a good restart for some. Good advice.Some other things to think about.It doesn't adress the the mental side of staying on plan. It also may be too restrictive if you are years out, have extra sleeve space and are trying to trouble shoot hunger. Many options to look at. some do Keto. Intermittent fasting, vegan. It may be some trial and error to find what works.Trouble shooting extra sleeve space. I eat dense Protein and other foods on my plan. I eat as much veggies as I want until full. I log to make sure I stay within my weight loss calorie and macrosYears out weightloss calories may have to be dialed in specifically to find a point that you're body goes into weight loss mode. Years out 600 to 800 may not be realistic. Its not realistic for me personally. Calories macros are not same numbers for each of us. It can be dialed in specifically for an individual. Weight loss Is not as simple as a one size fits all. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app 1 sillykitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
