I am a month out today and was weighed for month f/up..lost 26 lbs since surgery..I AM GEEKED! I have lost this much weight in my 20yr serious weight struggle..It is slow and I stalled for a week (body holding to pureed phase..I guess)...But never the less I have lost inches and a pants size.. Who does that!!We do!! No worried ..we will go thru our stalls while our bodies adjust (doctor says)..yo are doing great with the walking..just wait til you add cardio..I'm proud of you and your hussle!!!! Keep it up!!!

They say for the first 6 months to not drink it, but three nutritionist, who was very down to earth said..we are all human n it you set it out to get flat then have your taste..who wants to do that..They are just fearful of the air bubbles in your stomach could be painful n produce extra acids( uncomfortable feeling)...you may not want it as much as you think you do....We'll get through this..I loved my mountain dews but not as much crave since the Nov 9th sleeve..Good luck on your journey!!!

My4Brownies replied to RussT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That you for the post..we are cousins.. Sleeved on the 9th as well..larger hernia repair set me back a little but feeling awesome in the last week..I go Friday for my weight/cup..I try not o weight here at work but my clothes are falling off..that's exciting in itself!! I'm slow at dropping lbs n doctor warned me of it before surgery due to age(47) and lack of exercise..but now I walk the dusty treadmill in the basement n ready to get back to gym when cleared..gotta learn how to swim tho..lol..Thank you for your post n motivation Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App -

Do I tell or say nothing.
My4Brownies replied to bossportsgal's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yes like Lamar said..your business..everybody can't handle your business..smh..I told 2 coworkers before I went out and one kept bringing up weight stuff ..I told her I never discussed being big at work so don't question me getting small at work..I think she was resentful that I went thru with it when she was suppose to take the journey with me n bailed...good luck on your surgery n just worry about getting healthy. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App -
I don't think so..keep it light and then start your liquid tomorrow.. Best of luck and healthy recovery .. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
