Any February 2014 Sleevers?
onlybroomegirl replied to honeyg317's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree with Sarah. Just keep working your plan & don't give up!! I am super strict on carb intake cause I was diabetic before. My loss has dramatically decreased in the last 6 weeks but I'm a lot closer to my original goal. I get aggravated with the scale but I know in my head my body is just trying to adjust. Best of luck!! -
Any February 2014 Sleevers?

I'm down 92 lbs!! Feel like a completely new person! I will lose 3-4 lbs then bounce around for 2 or 3 weeks then lose again. I'm going to have to up the exercise. I really wanted to lose 100 before my 6 month. But I couldn't be happier! Good luck!!! -

I bought a belt last week! I don't remember ever having a belt! -
Obtained a goal today! I bought a belt!! I can't remember having a belt in my adult life. This was one of my NSV I had set presurgery! I also bought a size 8 dress!!! Granted it is stretchy material, but the tag has a single digit!!! Shout!!!

I bought a belt this week! Was on my list of NSVs preop. I also squeezed into a size 8 dress!!! Granted it is stretchy, but the tag has a single digit! Registering the kids for school today. Will see a lot of people that I haven't seen in 3 months. Hoping all goes well. How is everyone doing? -

How do you see ticker?

Thanks! I'm always on my phone:) -

Welcome! I'm 5 months post op & couldn't be happier. My health is so much better & I have so much more energy! I'm down to 1/2 of a blood pressure pill (previously on 4) & no diabetes meds since 1 day preop. My a1c was perfect 3 months post op! I do have some skin issues but not as bad as I had feared. My arms are the worst but not sure I would consider plastics. I might reconsider after I hit goal. But would want to maintain for at least a year first. I've had 2 c sections so I thought my stomach would be the most horrible. Honestly it is a lot better than I expected. I still have 20-30 lbs til goal & hope more will go away! But I could live with it even now. I never expected a perfect body. I have talked to some people about a tummy tuck but it sounds really traumatic so we will just have to wait & see what the next year or so brings. Best of luck to you!

Weight loss stall! Need advice!
onlybroomegirl replied to sdarst52's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Miss Mac thank you!!! I'm 5 months post op & thought I must be the only one who gains 3-4 lbs overnight! I know I've not ate enough to gain!!! Seems like I will gain overnight then stall for about 3 weeks then lose that 3 plus 1 or 2 more. Then repeat. I'm only 20-30 lbs from goal so I expected weight loss to slow. Stalls do happen & they stink! Just don't give up. It will eventually even out. Also take your measurements. I am getting smaller even when the scale doesn't move. Best of luck! -
Pre Op Liquid Diet Ideas...
onlybroomegirl replied to Capegin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Best of luck! It is an incredible journey. But so totally worth it! I lost 22lbs on my 2 week preop diet! I love pb2 also & can use torani sugar free syrup. Unjury makes a chicken soup protein, but I honestly didn't like it. Like the others said, you basically just get thru it. I really think the first 4 or 5 days is the hardest. Then your body is kind of detoxed off of carbs. Post op is easier. -
En route as we speak
