I had surgery in Juky 2022. Lost 40 lbs. Have put 12 back on in the past few months. Too many carbs. I heard that you can "reset" your sleeve through diet. What do you have to do to do that? Do you have to do the liquid diet to do that?

Hi, kevin! Did your dietitian set the calorie range? Mine won't. She told me to work on getting 60-90 g of protein. I'm averaging about 700 cal a day. Losing about 1-2 lbs a week. I did lose 10 lbs the first 10 days. Have lost 18 lbs since I started liquid diet 6 weeks ago. Made my first goal of 225 already. I was 252 on my first appointment last June.

I'm a teacher too. Had surgery on July 12th and return on Aug 17th. Kids on Aug 22nd. I tried to get as much summer for my surgery as possible. Surgeon's office was real good working with me.

Oh, I get it! That's terrible! In my third week. Any kind of ground meat or fish. Today, dietitian let me start on mushy veggies. Soon good! Trying different ways to cook ground meat. Kind of hard to be original. Having luck finding recipes on keto diet. Very few carbs. Good luck!

Hi Brennan! I had the same feeling. I'm a little over two weeks out now and it seemed to have resolved itself. I know, it's a weird feeling.

Are you drinking it cold? That bothered me the first 2 days. Maybe try room temp or warm?

What happens if you mess up on liquid diet?

I take psych meds. There is one that is going to lose its potency when I open the capsule. How long until I can go back to taking my pills in regular form (not crushed or opene)?

Oh, that would be great! I'll have to check with my surgeon.

Hey snow! How did surgery go?

OA does not have a therapist. It is a peer therapy group based on the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. I was there for 3 years about 15 years ago, before any thought of bariatruc surgery. It was a nice place to meet people and they were very supportive, but the group I attended was very judgemental. Im Not sure someone going through surgery would be very welcome. -
