4 month update: I am 120 lbs down which also makes me under 300lbs which I haven’t seen since 2014. But today was my nieces birthday party and they had a water slide. I was able to bring my 18 month old son on the slide more than 30 times. He loved it and the only reason we didn’t do it more was to Velcro brush burns I was getting when the Velcro would unstick. The best none scale victory I have had so far. I am also able to fit in Xl shirt which I haven’t been able to do since high school as well.

I make 3 months on the 15th. I am currently down 83 pounds since pre opp diet and 73 down since surgery. I am doing everything possible to hit my protein goal each day working out 4-5 days a week at a gym. Just sign up for a personal trainer to meet once a week. I have started to allow my self a chip or two when my family eats Mexican food at home after I had my dinner. I am craving crunch and pickles have been my friend. I hope all is going well for y’all as well.

I am so glad someone started this topic. I am 28 and just got the sleeve a month ago.

Guys I am at week 5 and I am still stalled I don’t know what I am doing wrong!!! I am a total of 45 pounds down and have been stuck at 359/360 for 2 and a half weeks. I exercise everyday walk or swim. I am hitting water and protein goal trying to get my calories to at least 700 in that process but happier if they go over since they want me close to 1000 I don’t know what else to do. I have been pretty good at not weighing my self everyday now but still!!!! How long did your three week stall last

Guys I am having it bad right now. Under the regiment that my doctor has me on I can not have purées until week 4 which is still8 days away. I also have some texture problems when it comes to oatmeal or pudding. On week two I was allowed to start sugar free pudding and applesauce. The applesauce is way to sweet for me right now and it the no sugar added. Hasn’t made me dump but sure has made me nauseous. Tomorrow I can start oatmeal!! Yay for others not so much for me! I just want to taste something other than protein drinks. I have been doing my water and protein goal just fine it’s just getting hard to make myself drink it. It’s one more week and i know I can do it but it’s really still just another week of protein drinks and water. Also starting to get to my first stall which is kinda annoying but I know I just need to keep walking and drinking. I know it happens and understand why just one of those things you have to get pass. I have told my husband to take the scale away and I’ll measure myself on Wednesday and Sunday instead of everyday. Sorry for long rant just need to say it to other that understand.

I am feeling a lot better but the gas comes in waves right now but as soon as I start to walk it releases thank goodness. Also I had the sleeve.

My surgery was yesterday and I am on my way home now. Just make sure to walk and get that gas gone!
