April 2022 Surgery Buddies
Bmordan replied to Crinkles's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Revision? Did you have the sleeve prior? -
Did you gain any weight from when you had the sleeve?

i'm pre-op, for the second time
Bmordan replied to gabbykittyvsg's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too was sleeved but 9yrs ago. I have major Gerd to the point it makes me throw up. I just found out I have a small hiatal hernia. I went for a consult and the surgeon suggested revision to bypass. I lost 100 pounds after being sleeved but have gained about 70 which sucks. How much did you lose and regain? I hope to fix my Gerd but also lose at least 50. I heard it would be a slower processes since I’m still limited when eating. -
Hello, did you ever get surgery? I too gained weight and was wondering about revision
-
Considering revision
Bmordan replied to Rachelm1985's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I’m on the same boat Rachel. I had the sleeve in 2013. Dropped 100 pounds but have gained 65 back. I want to look into a revision. My job has open enrollment and there’s a plan that covers bariatric surgery. -
Hello everyone I'm currently 30 weeks out and have lost 75 pounds. I was wondering how much weight everyone who's about this far out has lost. What was your starting weight & goal weight. I need 25 more pounds to be at my goal weight

Wow you've lost 119 in 6 1/2 months? I'm also 6 1/2 months out and have only lost 67 pounds I do admit I haven't gone much to the gym through out these 6 1/2 months.

Funny I was told by the coordinator when I started this journey that I was 5'8...I've never been told that so I'm sure to saying 5'7...I'm 15 weeks out going on 16(4months) on Monday..I've only lost 51 pounds. I don't think I would hit 100 like you on my 5th month..I haven't really put in much work in the gym and I also drink alcohol twice a week. I'm sure that's a factor in my weight loss.

You look great! Did you have to get any skin reduction surgeries? How tall are you? I'm 5'7 I was 271 starting weight..surgery date was April 8,2013 I'm now 220.4...

Hey everyone. So I'm 11 weeks out n have only lost 45 pounds. How much have you lost? How much did you lose when u were at your 3 month mark?..I am going on vacation in 5 weeks. I hope I dorm hit a stall so I can lose another 10-15 pounds (wishful thinking)

I thought I had a drinking problem about a year ago but I've controlled my drinking. But I don't think I can ever stop. My doctor didn't tell me to
-
I too haven't stopped drinking. I stopped a few days before surgery and started drinking again 12 days later and I'm perfectly fine. I have a busy social life...my doctor gave me the ok to drink when I went to remove my stitches 9 days later..but yes everyone's body is different
-
Anyone bold enough to admit that they drink a lot? I asked my coordinator when I could drink and he said wait about 6 months. 9 days after surgery I went to remove my stitches and I asked my doctor when i could drink and he said when ever I want just to drink slowly. Well that was enough for me! I began drinking 12 days later and have not stopped ever since. I probably drink 3 times a week. I'm 3 months out and I've lost 45 pounds. Could it be that I haven't lost more because I drink so much? I honestly believe it is hard for me not to drink. My social life consist of drinks drinks drinks
-
Wow wow wow u look great! What was your starting weight in the black outfit picture? How much did you lose 3 months out? When did u start the surgery?
-
I've actually been concerned that I haven't lost much weight. Started at 271 n now I'm 226..I don't see much of a difference until yesterday. I shopped at American eagle for the 1st time ever! I got a dress size L and a denim vest size XL..I felt great to shop there since i was never able to before surgery.
-
Let me tell you how you are my number one motivator...I've seen the pictures you've posted before and I see myself in you..I'm 5'8 was 271 before surgery..day of surgery 260 and now 11 weeks out I'm 228...my goal weight is 180-170..I feel that this is it for me..I feel like the scale won't go down anymore...I hope to have great results like you..
-
Thank you for the kind words. I guess I try and compare myself to those who I've read that lost 70 pounds and only 3 months out

I was sleeved 04/08 and hadn't seen the scale move in 2-3 weeks till this week I lost another 3 pounds. I've read may people say they go on a stall. It was stressful not losing anything for 2-3 weeks tho
