Whatever you do....DON'T PUSH! Trust me I learned the hard way. The trip to the doctors office was just delightful! Some things I'd just rather forget!

LuminousLife replied to sleevinIT's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Dec 3rd sleever here. Down 25lbs. Nothing in the last week and I had a 2 week stall mid December. Patience is a virtue I don't have. Are we there yet?!?!?!? Hahaha -

How long was your journey to goal?
LuminousLife replied to LuminousLife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks Jenny! That's inspirational. My sw was 230 (12/3/13). I'm currently 205. I'm still have that voice in my head saying I will never reach goal. -
1 month post op today. After a 2 week stall In just lost another 5. That's 25 total! SW 230 CW 205!!!! I can almost taste "one-derland". All restrictions have been lifted I can eat anything healthy and rich in protein, I just have to chew the heck out of it. Hang in there newborns. Its worth the discomfort and hard work!

Help! Protein is killing me!
LuminousLife replied to rhondafranklin03's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I do isopure cut with water as well as premier protein. The rest make me yack. The smell of Nectar turned me off. Can you have yogurt yet? I have Fage Greek plain and then I drizzle with agave. -

What am i doing wrong?
LuminousLife replied to Sabredy12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I lost 20 the first week & 1/2 and have been in a stall for 2 weeks. The body needs time to adjust. You will find when you do eat the scale will start to move downward again. You are in famine mode. You body is trying to protect itself by holding on to whatever stores it has. Get plenty of h20 and protein and step away from the scale. I feel your pain but I have faith, we can do it! -
Chocolate Milk gets me through, I put it in a cocktail glass lol although I can tolerate sugar, they do have sugar free syrup. Good luck

Dec 3rd sleever checking in. Down 20lbs and went bowling (with a light ball) tonight! (Sw 230, cw 210)

I am 3 weeks out and tonight I had about 4oz of white wine. I didn't even think about it (dumb I know) it was just served with Xmas supper. I feel fine, not even a buzz and no pain. Could I have done damage to my sleeve?
-
I was thinking of you today. How did it go?
-
Great attitude!
