My start weight was 228 my goal was 140. When I reached 158 my cousin said that I looked sick and my face was sunken in! I am 4'11! My doctor think that my weight should be 120/130![emoji15] needless to say, I'm 2 years out and 167[emoji30][emoji30][emoji30]how I wished that I was 158 again... or smaller! -

Good morning! It's been a long time since I've posted! Just to give an update, I am a 4"11 female, I was sleeved 9/26/14 my highest weight was 228. On the day of surgery I was 217 as of today 8/10/15, I am 166.3! I'd do it again in a heartbeat and I've influenced 5 people of whom I've shared my journey with, to have or at least inquire about this procedure.... -

You go to the plus size because you still don't know your new size and the store clerk ask if you're looking to buy a gift for someone☺️ (I'm a size 6-8 dress/12 pants from a 16-18 dress/20-22 pants!) -

SEPTEMBER 2014 POST-OP SLEEVERS CHECKING IN!
waitingtoexhale replied to Rovobay's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery date was September 26, 2014! I made 6 months post op on 3/26/15 that same day I had a PCP doc visit...... I am now 177lbs from my highest weight of 228 the day of 10 day pre op weight the day of surgery I weighed 217! I'm officially off blood pressure meds, first time in 13 years! I feel great, look great, I exercise with a personal trainer 3 days a week, but my PCP said that I should work out at least 5! Hopefully, I'll find that kind of strength! It's still hard to get in 90grams of protein AND 64 oz of water but I'm trying???? -

Pre-op diet...... Destroyed!
waitingtoexhale posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel like I have no self control! I can't do this pre-op by the paper to save my life! The real sad part is, it doesn't require ALL liquid . I'm able to eat 2 "smart" meals (smart ones, healthy choice ect) a day, 1 Greek yogurt, unlimited unsweetened liquids including popsicles, a piece of fruit and 2 protein shakes! Instead I've eaten what I've cooked for the last 2 days baked turkey wings w/gravy and pinto beans (it is protein) I also had 2 jerk chicken tacos!! My surgery is Friday! I only have today to get it right because Thursday is the ALL CLEAR liquids day! -
Protein...You're making me sick.
waitingtoexhale replied to NotWishWhen512's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Puréed is theeee absolute worse! I can't hardly stand the only protein shake that I can tolerate (premier) anymore! I'm 3 weeks post op and now on any soft foods that I can tolerate. However, that's a chore as well???? -

I wasn't completely prepared....
waitingtoexhale replied to VSG_lauren's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@VSG_lauren this is EXACTLY how I feel! I thought that I was ready but boy was I in for a surprise!! I'm tired all the time, can't eat but two teaspoons of puréed anything, fatigued and a little miserable. It's unbelievable that you REALLY can't consume not even what nutritionist would say is a normal plate of something! 6 month old babies can eat more than me:(. I pray that 6 months from now that I can say it was worth it and I don't regret it either..... I'm two weeks two days post-op 9/26/14 -
