weight Regain after gastric sleeve



Recommended Posts

I have got sleeved 18 months ago and I have lost 100 lbs but in the last few months I have gained 30 lbs back. I have also hypoglycemia which makes me hungry all the time. my dietitian didn't give me a suitable diet or any diet at all which makes me so confused about what to eat. I don't know what to do. I am so depressed. I am afraid that my stomach gets stretched back to its normal size and I get back to my pre-operation surgery.

You know how to eat. The bariatric plate is 1/2 Protein, 1/4 veggies and 1/4 grains and you're supposed to start with the protein and not move on to the next part of the plate if you're full. Keep portion sizes to 1/2 cup. Avoid a lot of starches and sugars. You've got this. You can do this.

If you dont like the ride get off the Insulin roller coaster.

Protein, healthy fats, carbs from veggies only.

shop on the walls of your store.

i live in the middle of farm country and have yet to see a box growing in a field, tho i fear it comes for us all one day. :)

like all things its not an all or nothing thing. set a small goal and works toward it then pick up the goal post and carry it with you towards a new and better goal.

do not give up!

I've lost 100 pounds but recently stopped and actually gained 5 lbs. It is totally diet. My carbs picked way up and it shows. Definitely continue to eat your Protein first. I still find that Proteins fill me up quickly as I approach the 11 month post surgery mark; but got lazy and began eating more carbs. Now back on track, and as hard as that is, it's the only way.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
