Just curious..not comparing. I'm just beginning month 3. How much did you lose?
-
I'm 2 month's post op. Went to New York over Christmas. I had a terrible time eating out. I my son took me out for lobster which I thought would be fine. I. Felt sick for nearly two hours. Will it always be like this? He doesn't know about the surgery so it was really difficult. Advice please?

I'm in New a york City visiting my son for Christmas. I made the mistake of not trying on clothes before I left. The pants I brought are all falling off me! Who hoo!

Others finding solid foods unpleasant?
sukik replied to Lallylocks's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't like solid foods and I'm 7 weeks postoperative. I don't get the same pleasure from eating like I used to. I get uncomfortable quickly too. -
I'm six weeks post op and have only lost 17 lb post op. I'm 63 and had a low BMI. I'm going to the gym and getting about 70 grams of protein and get in all my water. Advice?

I'm a slow BMIer and 63. I've lost 20 lb in a little over 6 weeks! I feel great. My goal is 55 lb.

I went on a 4 day vacation to Santa Fe with friends. We went out to eat the whole time. I thought I would have gained but actually lost 1.5 lb! I'm so excited!

I've had it since I was one month out. No issues at all!

I'm 6 weeks out and was able to eat a whole taco with shell. No upsets? I would think that would be too much food! Comments?

I'm So Depressed! Weight Loss is So Slow!
sukik replied to sukik's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I hadn't looked at it that way, almost 3 lb a week. That's encouraging! 5'4 Sw 184 CW 167 GW 135. BMI 31.8 -
Dr. Alvarez is the best! Even if my insurance would pay, I would go to Dr. A.

Under 180Lbs And Getting Sleeved, Anyone Else?
sukik replied to Cuaya's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was 184 and got the sleeve. I just kept gaining before I got it done. I'm 63 and am losing slowly. 6 weeks out and have lost 17 lb. I would do it again though! -
I was sleeved 10/24. BMI was 31. Have lost 14 lb and am 63. I think I'm a slow loser. Only 1 lb lost last week.

For those with BMI 36 or lower, how much did you lose your first month pre-op
sukik replied to Readytobeskinny's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was a BMI of 31 with 50 lb to lose to be at a great weight. I'm one month out from surgery and have lost 13 lb only. I guess I'm what they call a slow loser. I'm following the program completely. I thought I would have lost more. I'm also 63. -
I was sleeved in October 25, 2014. I've only lost 12 lb and have experienced the 3 week stall as well. I am 63 and am a low BMI (31). I'm doing everything right, getting in my Water and Protein, low carbs, and calories are between 500 and 700. I'm exercising too (walking). I guess I'm what you would call a slow loser!

2 Wks Out Only Down 10 Lbs
sukik replied to mnmlst's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've only lost 12 lb in the first two weeks, then stalled for 10 days. Then lost another 2 lb in a week. I think I'm a slow loser. I'm 63 and a low BMI to begin with. -
I was really scared but the thought of carrying around this weight overrode my fear. I kept coming to the boards and saw very few complications. I had my worries until the day of surgery. But I went through with it!im so happy I did!

I've been in a stall for 9 days which started in week 3. I have a low BMI and have only lost 12 lb plus I'm 63, how long will this last?
