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?

You should start your own topic for October.

Ask your dietitian.

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.

To Carlene-
Maybe adult coloring? There's an app, but you can do it IRL with colored pencils. Keeps my hands busy. Started using this year's ago when I quit smoking. You may be able to find them in Ealmart, but definitely at a hobby shop like Michael's or Hobby Lobby.

That weird mentally out of it thing? I get that for a few weeks whenever I've had any surgery. It's your body trying to throw off the anesthesia. Som÷people take longer than others.

Congrats muffinman!

Please pack a lip balm/chapstick. I got Burts bees. Invaluable for hospital stay as you try to rehydrate.

I've been the same weight for a week. In the middle of my 4th ×ek.

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!

Good luck muffinman! Remember, this is a means to a great end! The next 24 hours will be tough, but it gets better every day after that. I'm 2 weeks out and life is a)out back to normal.

Hi Kevin! Nice job! I've lost 15 lbs in the last month. 2 weeks pre surgery liquid diet and now 9 days out from surgery liquid diet. I hit 225 today! I'm so happy. I started last June at 252.

Cool! Relax, do EXACTLY what they day to do after surgery.

In my thoughts and prayers!

Tomorrow morning is my surgery. I'm. Scared that I may mess up. I'm also excited that I get this chance. Just needing some reassurance right now.

Had surgery yesterday! So nice to be on the other side. Having problem with taking in too much air and getting gas pain in my stomach. Don't have too much ice. It hurts. REMEMBER A LIP BALM! It helps with chapped lips while you catch up with your liquids.

Wishing you well, Kevin! It's so nice to be on the other side.

I'm doing ok. Trying to pace myself with liquids. Very thirsty, but have to watch myself not to drink too much too fast. Some pa>n Trying to rest.
