I'm doing it right now. the first two days are hell, but i'm hanging in there. just tell yourself it's only temporary and you'll be done it after 5 days. yesterday i almost past out. i'm doing it because i'm out going onto 5 years and have regained about 30 lbs and now need to loose it. i am doing the pouch test to shrink my "tube" and then will go back to basics of Proteins first, then veggies, etc.

i let my comfort with the sleeve get the best of me and because of that, i gained weight. It's going to be a continuous battle for me all my life.

Have you thought about looking into a more comfortable eating plan, like 5:2 Alternate Fast Days? Here's what I know - we can get through a few days of almost starvation or liquid diet but overall, it's the maintenance that will do us in.

I am 3 1/2 years out, regained about 30 pounds also. Finally found a method of maintenance that works as a lifestyle - many of us have accomplished re losing or getting to goal through this method. There is a thread out there and you can google Fastdiet 5:2 and see info but there is a LOT of info here and people who are willing to help. Long term it is the best thing I have done for myself. Lost the 30 pounds and an additional 10 since June 4th and maintaining it easily with 2 semi-fast days a week. Just a thought...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
