I understand the intake will be less initially, i see where people can go back to their old weight, how is that ?

Short answer. By not sticking to the plan, not eating right, not exercising etc etc.

The sleeve is a tool not a given. You have to work with it.

Ok makes sense..thanks for replying.

Grazing. Not moving your body. Not following the "Protein first" rule.

The sleeve will limit the amount of food I can eat at one sitting if I eat dense protein. I can eat a ton of tortilla chips and seem to be a bottomless pit when it comes to chips or other slider foods. I still have great restriction with chicken, steak, or other dense meats.

I make an effort to move my body every day in some way - even if it's a one or two mile walk with the dog. Any movement is good movement.
