Regaining weight after weight loss surgery?
Get back on track — without relying on willpower.
Regain isn’t the problem. You’re missing the skill to make weight loss truly last.
In 12 weeks 1:1 immersive coaching follow-up, you’ll build your own Regain Playbook—so consistency becomes your baseline, not your battle.
Coach Felipe Ramos — lost and maintained 100+ lbs for 11 years by building the skill you’re about to learn (not relying on motivation).
Post-op regain starts quietly—then the fear shows up.
You’re solid when life is normal.
Your routines work.
You feel like, I’ve got this.
Then time passes.
Your body isn’t doing the heavy lifting anymore.
You can eat more.
The hard stop isn’t as loud.
So when life gets hard—stress, travel, exhaustion—
the old autopilot shows up in tiny permissions you barely notice.
Even when the week is going well, there’s that quiet vigilance underneath:
Don’t slide. Don’t mess this up. Not again.
And it’s lonely—because people assume surgery fixed the whole thing.
So you carry the fear privately.
Ever had that “here we go again” moment?
Here’s what’s really going on:
If this runs long enough, it can feel like going back to square one.
Not because you’re broken—because your old autopilot is back online.
That’s the problem: surgery changed your body—not your stress response.
Surgery changed your body. It didn’t automatically upgrade your default stress response.
That’s the problem.
If food is your main emotional regulator—your body eventually adapts and the old pattern comes back.
(You don’t need more information. You need a better system.)
Replace willpower with a system that works on hard days.
Build Your Regain Playbook with Self-IQ™
Self-IQ is my framework to help you learn, understand, —and retrain —the system that runs your behavior:
Step into your Mindset (meaning + identity)
Elevate your Behavior Pattern Knowledges (loops, triggers, “hot buttons”)
Learn and connect with your Biology (stress response, urges, recovery)
Feel and honor your Emotions (skills so food isn’t your only relief)
Identify hidden influence from your Environment (hidden influence shaping your defaults)
Qualify and quantify your Progress (you achieve what you track)
This isn’t about restriction. It’s about expansion: expanding the skills that regulate you, so food stops being the catch-all emotional relief.
Why trust Felipe: he built the skill, then systemized it.

Before
Self-IQ isn’t theory. I built it because I had to live it.
In my late 20s/early 30s I stepped into a high-pressure career path. I wasn’t equipped for the stress, and my coping system was food. That spiral took my confidence, my health, and my relationships. I hid from people—and from myself.
Then I made a decision: no more hiding, no more negotiating. I would solve this—unconditionally. Over time I learned what actually worked: not motivation, not guilt, but skill—training my default response under pressure.
I lost 100+ lbs and kept it off for 12 years. I got certified, coached people 1:1, and built Self-IQ™ from lived experience + real client reps.
Now I help post-op patients whose regain is driven by emotional eating build their own Regain Playbook—so they can use surgery as a tool, not a source of fear.
Fit-first: if you’re not a fit, I’ll guide you to your best next step.
The process: see it, map it, retrain it, lock it in.
1) Self-Permission
You can’t change what you can’t see. Permission unlocks visibility, and visibility unlocks skill.
SELF IQ Framework for GPT + JFR…
2) The Framework
Self-IQ: you understand what’s actually running you.
3) Pattern Mapping
We map your patterns, triggers, and “hot buttons.”
4) Autonomy
You get to choose your tools (so adherence goes up).
5) Training
You practice the skill (breathing, journaling, emotional granularity, movement, etc.) until it becomes your new default.

You’ll start with a 3–5 minute fit quiz.
If you qualify, you’ll be invited to submit an application for one of the 12 spots.
I review every application personally and send next steps.
If you’re not a fit, I’ll still point you to the best next step for your situation.
-
This is for you if:
Food becomes your default stress-relief switch (stress + celebration patterns included)
You’re committed to doing what’s required—unconditionally
You want a system you can run on hard days (not a “perfect plan”)
This is not for you if:
You want results without effort
You’re unwilling to be honest with yourself (no masking, no editing)
You want insight without implementation (skill comes from reps)
-
Because we don’t run a generic plan. We build your Regain Playbook around:
your triggers (stress, travel, fatigue, celebrations)
your patterns and “hot buttons”
the tools you’ll actually use
Then we test, refine, and lock it in weekly—until consistency becomes your baseline.
-
Yes—because this program targets what surgery doesn’t automatically change:
your default stress response and the emotional-eating loop.
I complement medical care; I don’t replace it. If you need medical adjustments, your surgeon/team leads that. I handle the behavior + skill side so you can use surgery as the tool it’s meant to be.
-
You’re not buying “12 weeks of calls.” You’re buying:
a high-touch, limited-capacity coaching container (12 clients max)
weekly 1:1 guidance + structured skill training
your custom Regain Playbook + relapse prevention systems
support designed for real life (stress, travel, celebrations)
This is premium because it’s immersive, personalized, and capacity-limited by design.
-
By the end, you leave with a playbook you can run independently.
If you want continued support, you’ll have the option to continue (only if it’s a fit and capacity allows).
-
You have a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Details are shared during the application stage so expectations are crystal clear.
-
No. This is coaching. It complements your surgeon/dietitian/medical team.
For medical decisions, symptoms, complications, or urgent concerns, contact your medical professionals.
