Gastric Sleeve Patient Anyone else?

Options
I am 47 and 5' 10" tall and hit 425 lbs in May of 2018.
Lost 50lbs between June and August of 2018
Had gastric sleeve surgery on 8.8.18 and since have lost another 100lbs
Now at 275 its getting harder to drop.
Not stopping and going to hit 180 or die trying.

    I was sleeved 12-13-17 and then my stomach twisted and we decided it best to do the gastric bypass 9-5-18. I also became vegan 2-17. I have lost a total 160 lbs but I feel like I am starting to gain some back since I was not able to eat until my bypass. I am 5'9"

    Hi! I was sleeved on 1/15/16. My highest was 420, surgery weight was 380. I got down to 269 last July, since then I have gained 29lbs, I started a sleeve reset 3 days ago and I’m down 6 lbs. It is so easy to slide back to old habits, and I found out I was doing things wrong. Now I eat my 3 oz of protein (chicken, pork, beef, fish or eggs) first. If I’m still hungry, then I have a vegetable. Any thing like quinoa, rice, sweet potato is limited to 2 Tbs only. I still have over 150lbs to loose. Slow and steady wins the race.
