Okay so' date=' i have not lost weight in 2 mos. and June 11th will be my 6 mos out. I was in my last semester of RN school and i totally stopped going to the doc, stopped checking forums, stopped being a sleever. I am 51 lbs down and my "honeymoon" is over. I called and made a appt with my doc and dietician and joined the gym today. I want to reset my sleeve and i saw that some people go back on liquids. Does it work? and how long? Anyway, I have to get back on track. I saw some old pics last night and i saw the sadness and misery on my face. I can NEVER go back there.[/quote']

Youll get going again. Ill be watching for feedback on resetting too. Theres something out there called five day pouch test which may work.

Wow you look great!

What is the five day pouch test? Is that what you do to "reset" the sleeve? Is it something we can google or have you found a thread on it on VSG forum?

I think we should all look into the 5 day pouch test lol maybe it will get us all started fresh again I am going to Google it to see what I come up with for you guys okay

Thank you for the positivity :) I got this! I did legs and a 1hr Zumba class tonight. It felt Amazing being back in the gym.I have heard of that pouch test. I will look into it. Thank You!

Surgery date: 12/20/12 (5.5 months post-op) . Starting weight: 265. Current weight: 175. Total weight loss: 90lbs. I'm 5lbs from my doctor's goal and 25lbs from my personal goal.

I love coming back here and getting inspired by everyone's stories! It was a big decision we all made for our future health and it is great to see folks making progress. Regardless of how fast we think it should be, we are still working towards our goal and there ain't nothing gonna stop us! :)

...Look at your BMI - You are no longer obese! So happy for you :) Tell me how it feels, I can only imagine, lol...

I am so glad to see someone else say this. I thought I was being silly when I was saying to myself "Yea! You're no longer obese...you're just overweight now!" :)

Oh yeah, not silly at all. So - how does it feel? I know I felt great just being obese instead of super obese. It's all relative, my friends!

I had surgery 12-11-12 and weighed 325, now I weigh 210! 115 pounds down and can't wait for onederland!
