Sleeved june 17th - weight loss 2lbs post surgery
MindfulWeightLoss posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Lost 23 lbs post surgery on optifast. After surgery I gained 5 lbs which I think was water weight. Loss 2 lbs since surgery at two weeks out. Not discouraged yet but want to make sure I an doing the right things. Extremely tired, trips to store wipe me out enough for a short nap. Getting in all protein and water. Wish I could see more loss at this juncture. Concerned about energy level. -
I had something similar. I had some grilling beans by Bush beans. It gave me so much gas that it ripped through my stomach and bowels causing extreme diarrhea and vomiting.

Awesome summary! Thank you!

Depends on your pre op diet. I was on optifast and never felt hungry so it was fairly easy to go the distance. Be careful not to start so early that you can't stick to it. Determination is key. Good luck.

Thanks for the good wishes. I've lost 12lbs on pre op diet of Optifast. Haven't been hungry at all. It's a lot of protein. It puts your body into ketosis really fast then you drop all the water weight and start burning fat. -
You are doing fantastic! Keep up the great work!

MindfulWeightLoss replied to Museum-Mama's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hello from NJ! As a failed lap-bander, I am so looking forward to turning things around. I am 53 and have 120 lbs to lose. I have sleep apnea, arthritic knees and spinal stenosis so I want to get heathy so I can enjoy life again! My surgery date is June 17th and I've never been so excited to go to the hospital! Grateful for this second chance. Good luck to us all. -
Wish this feeling never goes away:)
