Sleeve weight loss times?
septappt replied to Llunker's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I understand what you are asking, you might get different replies if you post your heights and weights and you could compare them with others to get the general idea. Even though everyone is different, my surgeon says you lose a majority of your weight within the first 8 months and usually all of the weight within an 18 month period. But everyone is different every surgeon will give you a different answer. I'm 5'9" I lost 80 pounds in the first 5 months. I started at 280, I have 25 more to go and I'm exactly 5 months out ! Good luck to you on your journeys. PS I would plan the wedding 1 year after your surgeries ! -

I would definitely call amazon! They told me they would make it right ! -
Highest weight 280 Surgery weight 268 Current weight 200 (5 months out) I'm 5'9" Met the doctors goal of 205, but my personal goal is 175-180. I really need to kick in some exercise, I started off really good with walking everyday 2 times a day and now nothing ;( I just found out I have a pinched nerve in my back which is causing me to have a drop foot, so it's really difficult to walk at a fast pace with a drop foot.

My order was shipped but the weight of the package is for 1 can. I called amazon and they said if I only receive one can that they will contact the company and make sure they ship me the other 11 because the description clearly states 12ct 15oz cans! So heres to hoping they get it right the first time ! -

Make sure you hold on to the receipt they email you. I just checked mine and it clearly states 12ct 15oz. I was charged 3.39 that's 28 cents a can ! Woohoo -

I just bought one too! What a steal! That has to be a pricing error ! Oh well there loss our gain -
I take gnc ultra mega vitamins. I would advise you to read the label of those centrum chewable, yes they are rather good, but there's carbs in them !

HW 280 SW 268 CW 207 total of 73 #'s and I've lost 61% if my excess weight ! I'm 2 away from doctors goal and 30 from my personal goal ! -

Eyesight any differnt?
septappt replied to FSU GIRL's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Lack of vitamin A ! I was having that issue and doctor did blood work said mine A was low, taking extra vitamin A daily, much better now ! -
I've never cheated either! We go through so much to achieve the goal of using this tool successfully, why cheat ? It's not worth the consequences ! The first 6 months are the most important towards achieving your weight loss. Good luck on your adventure !

Does anyone use centrum chewables?
septappt replied to Bronco0605's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I tried the centrum chewable's, I liked them for the flavor but I did compare them to a bariatric vitamin and the ultra mega vitamins from GNC and there is no comparison, the centrum chewable's have carbs in them, I stopped taking them and started the Ultra Mega's from GNC. They are a little pricey but work well for me ! -
Thank you! I do agree the mental hunger is definitely harder than anything ! I can't wait for summer so I can do activities outside, winter is so hard to want to jump up and do stuff

Surgery was 9/12 almost 4 months out So far I've lost 68 pounds! HW 280 SW 268 CW 212 5'9" Surgeons goal 205 My goal 170-175 I think we all hope for more, but our bodies are adjusting now. We can do this, just focus and follow your surgeons plan for you !

I don't deny myself anything either, I will have pizza but I only eat the cheese and the topping, and actually I can't even eat the topping off one piece and I get full. I think the guilt feeling falls in. Knock on wood I haven't stalled yet so I must be doing something right. Now to add exercise in and I should be good. Thanks for responding that was my first post !

So I'm 4 months out and I find myself back in a slump. I wanna say I 100% follow the rules......but lately (last 2 weeks) I find that I'm getting comfortable where I'm at and I think it's okay to have one cookie. I get all my protein I'm everyday 80 grams, I take all my medications and vitamins, water well not so much, maybe 32oz a day. I guess I'm asking what do you do when you get a craving? Sleeve surgery 9/12/13 HW 280 SW 268 CW 212 5'9" tall I still want to lose 40 more pounds !

Try Greek yogurt with pineapple in it, it will curve your craving !
