I agree with big viff that you didint likely stretch your sleeve. I’m not sure that’s even possible. For example, I eat carbs and fast food and large amounts of food all the time, but I still have restriction when I eat foods that’s are non-sliders.

What you have done is figured out a way to “eat around” you sleeve. Carbs are mostly sliders and you can eat a lot more of them than of Protein. If you want to go back to the dieting, than my advice is to begin by eating your protein first. Focus on low carb and higher protein meals with veggies.

Your body will crave carbs because your body needs carbs. But by putting those last instead of first you can take advantage of your stomach restriction again.

Just saw the challenge. Please add me [emoji16].

I just have to say that you inspired me. I also have had a couple of self inflicted stalls from a bad couple days here and there, and have also allowed the what ifs to bother me. Just, wow. You look amazing and I think you will be happy once you hit your goal.

I am now down to 387. God is so good. I was sleeved April 18, 2017.

I am a 36 yr old man out of Central California. I have been severely overweight since about 24 yrs of age. I started this journey about 2 years ago leaning heavily towards being banded, and the more I researched the more I started leaning toward VSG. I went to the doctor a few years ago and they weighed me before seeing me, and I topped the scale at 507 lbs. I nearly started crying, I couldn't believe how out of hand this got. And that's when the 2 year journey started. I slowly went through the preliminary visits for EKG, echocardiogram, etc. all the while trying different diets and exercise​ programs to see if I could do it on my own. I would lose some, but ultimately gain it back. I finally set my day back in March this year, and the date set was April 17th. I weighed 488 before pre op started. I started pre op on April 1st, and I lost 21 lbs pre op. Weighed 467 on the 14th. I ended up having my surgery the 18th after all. Today I weighed in at 437 and am loving my choice. There was a complication during my surgery, but my surgeon took good care of me and corrected the anesthesiologist mistake. I have more energy and am happier than I have been, and I have always been a happy guy. I thank God for everything and am glad I am not alone in this journey. I have a great support group... my girlfriend, my family, and my church family... and now all of you.
