I feel the same way! Our weights are identical. Next Wed . Will be 3 months for me .Mmy husband hid the scale because I was so depressed that the weight wasn't falling off. I'm almost 65 , had both knees replaced one year ago. I exercise daily with light weights and do water exercised 3x a week . -
I know how u feel. I will be 65 this month. I have had bilateral knee replacements 1 year ago. I was sleeved 10/10/12 and only lost 45 lbs including preop. I can't go jogging . What I do is water aerobics 3 x a week and light weights daily. I can walk but not for long distances. I thought I would loose a lot more by now. The inches are comming off and clothes are getting bigger but I'm not getting the results I wanted I'm hungry, eat all my protein and water and then some!

Need tips/suggestions from veterans...
ckunes replied to UTGal99's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleved Oct 10th and have the same weight loss and am doing what you are. However I am 65 and expect to loose slower- Im loosing inches and do water exercises 3x a week. I struggle with drinking all that water- I know its important. Did you know that instead of the fat flushing out of your body that it is being reabsorbed in your blood and organs if you dont drink all that water? -
Esophageal spasms - ugh!
ckunes replied to TheGamer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had severe esophageal spasms and regurgitation for years. Dx: achalasia. Finally surgery to open up the muscle between the esophagus and stomach. That was pre sleeve. I was sleeved on 10/10/12 and surgeon had to tweek my sleeve and make it bigger so the problem wouldn't reoccur. I have no problems now. -
Because I Cant Figure Out To Respond To Those Who Have Responded To My Post......
ckunes replied to mendymayhem's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I'm wondering if this surgery has lowered my resistance. I have had 2 colds since being sleeved. I haven't had a cold in years, had a flu shot and of the age where I have built an immunity to most viruses. -

I didn't have any problems with eating raw fruits and veges either . I am almost 2 months post op. the PA said do you want a leak? Looks like your asking for one.
-
I hope so-- I dont mention this to my Dietitian because she yelled at me for eating raw veges at a party- I figured it was the lesser of all evils- Im 7 weeks post op (sleeved 10/10/12. She said ABSOLUTELY NO RAW VEGES OR FRUIT TILL 4 MONTHS OUT!!! Any way I buy high protein and low carb bars to eat as meal replacements while out and about- I figured it was better than skipping a meal. One is always in my purse!
-
I was sleeved Oct 10th also and have lost 40 lbs total. Only 20 since surgery. 70 lbs is phenomenal what was your starting weight? Mine was the starting weight 272 lbs!
-
Help-- I had only a spoonfol of everything and I ate too much-- I feel awful!! Thank God Thanksgiving is over-- Im only having water and protein shakes tomorrow!
-
OMG I ate only a spoonful of everything for thanksgiving dinner and I ate too much and too fast. I feel awful!
