Ive had the sleeve for several years. I never made it to my goal. Im about 45lbs away.

I think ive stretched my stomach because im able to eat more food & have gained 15 of the 125 i lost.

Is there a way to reshrink your stomach?

Not sure if there is anyway to shrink it again but I've heard about this 5 day pouch test to "reset" yourself. Google it. ????

Good luck!!!

I got the Kindle version of the 5 Day Pouch Test & it's very interesting. I'm going to try it. I'm a year out & my carb cravings are awful! I haven't lost any weight in about 2 months. Also, I read that when the 85% of your stomach is removed the stretchy part is in that 85% & what is left doesn't stretch or at least only a little.

If you had your Sleeve surgery several years ago I would ask someone about this since the surgery has probably changed a little.

Good luck with finding your answer.

I don't think there is a way to make your stomach physically smaller, but you can make more of your restriction than you might be. If you focus on three meals a day with mostly lean protein and a small amount of green vegetables, that's a great start. Restrict your snacks to just a few and plan them in advance: jerky, hard-boiled eggs, a piece of fruit, a small carton of all-natural Greek yogurt, or a small handful of nuts. No liquid calories other than protein shakes. Say no to grains and starchy veggies completely. You'll have to white-knuckle it for the first three days or so, but it gets easier. Lean meats and green veggies engage your restriction in a way that soft, carby foods do not. And keeping your diet high in protein and low in carbs will dial back the cravings for sweets or high-carb snacks that may be sabotaging you now. Good luck!

Thank you all for your advice. Id hate to lose what ive lost.
