October 2018 Sleevers
greener pastures replied to kdiddle31's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Take it easy. You’re allowed to go through the emotions and feel, you’re only human right. You’ve taken a major life altering step and this is just the beginning. There’s so much more great things in store for you. I was sleeved October 5, 2018. My starting weight was 277 surgery date was 247 and I’m currently 207. I’ve hit the dreaded 3 week stall. My emotions have been everywhere. I take it one day at a time. Also I won’t be returning back to work until January 7, 2019. My job can be stressful and I knew I’d need the extra time to take in all the changes. When life gets “cruddy”, think about how far you’ve already come. Hope you feel better.. -

I’m 8 weeks out vsg surgery and I just want to give encouragement to those who are either staring out, thinking about it or are veterans. Also for the new comers just to let you know everyone is on their own journey, pace and have different outcomes and goals. I was hospitalized with diverticulitis. Let me tell you it’s the worst pain and dreadful time ever in he hospital. Please don’t follow the sole advice of others before you talk to your surgical team/ nutritionist and follow your own instincts. What works for others may not work for you. Stay focused and don’t give up.! -

The baked ricotta is a really good idea even with the puréed butternut squash. I will be almost 8 weeks out so I’m still trying to gather ideas to be social with family but still stick to my own goals. My family is so used to me cooking meals for them every holiday... My new options may disappoint many. -

What are some of your plans for thanksgiving or holiday meals? Any thoughts ideas on eating with family or meal preparations and recipes beforehand? -

Anyone lose motivation leading up to surgery?
greener pastures replied to Briswife15's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too, started between March and May on my journey. Friday 10/5/18 is my sleeve surgery date. I was required to do a 2 week liquid diet.. Hard but dedication. Am I nervous?, as two virgins on their wedding night. But looking back at pictures and remembering feeling mortified looking at myself in a full body mirror and not able to enjoy life.. feeling my lowest point when weight started to nag at who I was and where I wanted to be... all the procrastination went out the window. Don’t give up. I was robbed of who I’m supposed to be and Friday I will collect justice. -
