Ow many carbs should I aim for at 5 months out. I have a feeling they contribute to my stalls. Down 111 pounds in 5 months and want to keep it going.

Thanks. I thought the magic number was 50 on 1000 calories. Yesterday and today are a loss. Lol. Too much grazing. Oh well back to program tomorrow!!

New pics.

Pre - op -- 448 SW -- 428 October 19, 2013 (3 months post op) -- 338

In a heartbeat. Only regret was it took me so long to do it; however it has to be the right time for you.

It is the gross. I ate 780 burned 1210 so I was in the negative. Make sure your getting your protein in.

I had my sleeve on 7/18 Pre surgery weight: 428 Day of surgery: 410 Current weight: 368 I have lose 60 pounds, and moved from a 54 waste to 48 (today they fit). I think I might be losing inches but no weight. I have no moved from 60 pounds in week and half and it is driving me nuts. My goal weight is 250. Any ideas to kick start weight loss. I am bringing in 600-800 calories, but was bringing in 58-65 Protein over past two weeks. For past two days I ha e added Protein shake to get up to 80+ grams. HELP!!!

I was sleeved in July 18. I am down 60 pounds today. I have hit a stall, no movement in a week and half. Any ideas?

About a week out. Buffer tummy with lots of pillows.

So when I went to the surgeon I was 447 (6'1). When I went for my 2 week pre op visit I was 428. Started my 2 week pre op diet and was 409 the day of surgery (7/18/13). Today 3 weeks post op I am 378 pounds. First 50 pounds off from pre op diet till today. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my sleeve!!!! I really wish I did this in my twenties, but at 33 I will be healthy by 35!!!

Had my sleeve. All went great. No problems. Home sipping my liquids.

I go in at 7 am. See you all on the losers bench.

I have about a million different emotions going on right now. Both scared and nervous.

I am just a ball of nerves right now, but from what i hear dr. Williams is one of the best!

Hi morningdew. I am having mine Thursday with dr Williams at HUP. I also had bc personal choice and they were a breeze. No issues whatsoever.

I am having dr Williams in three weeks. How was it.

Anyone told to get IVC filters.

No IVC filters needed. Yippee.

I am 34 years old and have never been on the hospital. I getting my sleeve on July 18 and just wondering what the whole process is like walking into the hospital through recovery. I am very excited but also a bit nervous.

None of those things. I was just slightly over the BMI recommendation. I meet with surgeon tomorrow and will have to discuss this with him. I am pretty mobile and active too

Wow. Thanks. How was your post op journey.

So I have heard people say the pretty much close their eyes and its like 1 minute and they are up in recovery. Is that true.
