Thank you, I guess was feeling down. I have never lost this much and kept it off. So I will try to stay positive and stay on track. -
Our Costs after insurance
brandy88 replied to RebecaSparkles's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My bill was 35,000 and I'm paying 1500 out of pocket but like others said depends on insurance. I also had gallbladder out at same time. -

Is it possible to loose 170lbs with the sleeve?
brandy88 replied to kristy26's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had 106 to lose, and was sleeved 3-12 and already down 30.4 in little less than 5 weeks no stalls yet ( knock on wood) no nausea no vomiting, no trouble eating any foods. 75.6lbs to go so I am hopefully I will be able to get to goal, and sure you will too. -
Down 30.4 now only 5.6 lbs until next goal yay
-
Well I set a goal to loose 25 lbs before my 25 th bday in may well I'm so close .4 lbs away that's right .4 away 18 days post op so since my bday is 6 weeks away I pray .4 comes off lol small goals I feel will help me along the way, and since last yr in march I got down to 230 after I got really sick and was in hospital ( 280 and lost 50 in two weeks) that will be my next goal (241.4) now. Then it will be to get below 200 ( been over 5yrs). When you have 80+ lbs to loose I'm hoping this makes it seem easier ? Or wishful thinking.

Did you throw up? post op? or after you were sleeved?
brandy88 replied to Heather Meyer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did the moment I woke up from getting sleeved but not since -
I ate my first turkey burger, well half. And pretty good half calories and sodium of regular... Never ate before but will now
-
Went ok, I would say first few days painful but since then I have been doing good. No vomiting, no nausea and been able to tolerate all foods so far and now on full diet. Down 27.8 lbs was less but went up a lb. today but ok with that bc that seems to be what my body does loose for few days gain little then back to losing. No stalls yet (knock on wood) and I can't see that I look smaller but maybe in a few more months. I have never lost this much in a month ( unless just had baby) so I'm hopeful. I feel like I'm eating to much 800-1000 calories but on my diet plans says to at 900 at this point so guess on track. Seen dr. Said on track and back in 3 mo.

Well since everything was tight I think they are fitting better but I wear lots of lounge wear bc was so fat
-
I don't feel thinner but scale says so lol
