2 months out July 31 preop 370 Aug 12 op 355 today 304

I had my surgery Aug 12. I started my journey in Feb. I lost 20 pounds prior to surgery & 20 more since (started at 345 and currently at 305). I feel like weight loss has been slow compared to others, but I'm certainly losing inches. I had to buy new clothes for work & those are already baggy. I hope to be closer to 250 by the New Year & my doctor believes it is very doable for me.

I also am August 12 surgery was 370 July 31 and am currently 311.. Congrats surgery buddy!!

U can't get a bypass... The only option at this point would be duodenal switch but.. Don't think that's the answer... Sorry to hear of ur husbands misfortune

The best place is outback a 6 oz steak and baked tater for 7.99 and I only eat half the steak

@@Smills Me too. How many do you take?

It only takes 2 and about 45 min I'm out for me

I take benedryl knocks me out.. Get a huge bottle at costco Kirkland brand for 5 bucks

Been on the Celebrate Vitamins the last month, but they are getting low now.. What are people taking??? Cost effective wise.. The Celebrate are pretty pricey. optisource or any others???

They are the cheapest at costco just FYI

Awesome I'm August 12th so just waiting for another couple days lol

I also lost a good number the first 2 weeks about 20 ibs but then stalled for 2 and a half weeks.. Number even went up a couple days by a pound.. It has finally broken 2.5 weeks later.. It's frustrating but keep doing Proteins and hydration and it will pass!!

Hair loss, lack of energy. Hunger ect

Every dr is different. My doctor told me to snack on Protein rich foods between meals to ensure I'm at about 800 cal a day... I am 5 weeks out and down 35 ibs since surgery and 50 since preop

Shrimp or chicken.. Mostly a shrimp dish though.. I will eat like 4 shrimp and my wife will have the rest

I was sleeved August 12 first 2 weeks lost really good and the last 2.5 weeks nothing.. Was frustrating but finally broke yesterday and am losing again... It sux I know.. But keep doing ur Proteins and fluids.. It will pass

You just want to be careful.. My surgeon said cardio was the first thing and I started that three weeks out.. But anything with core muscles you want to wait a couple months at least to make sure your all healed up!

Yeah long as ur not impaired by the pain meds and u can throw ur leg over without pain ur good.. I was on mine 6 days out of the sleeve!!

I felt that way for a while... I'm almost a month out now and had chicken breast and a meatball the other night... It was then I realized that it worked... Hang in there stay on schedule but when u get to have ground meats make turkey meatballs and u will see that 1.5 small meatballs will fill u up quick!!

Yeah I was itchy for about 3 days while I healed but passed and all is well now

Yeah I'm there.. Had surgery on 8-12 lost about 15 pounds first 2 weeks then stalled for what will be the 3 weeks on Wednesday.. Just keeping my head up and plowing forward but a 3 week stall sux lol
