  1. Brain dump and rambling...Here I am 7.5 weeks post op and I am stuck at the same 25lb weight loss that I have had for the last 3.5 weeks. I am feeling down, dejected and frustrated with lack of movement on the scale. I am able to get into a lot of clothes and shoes that were troublesome before so I have had some non-weight related wins, but I am ready to scream about the lack of weight loss. I have upped my calories, lowered my calories, increased my exercising and I am hitting all my numbers for protein. I am still having issues with bathroom visits and vitamins making me feel sick to my stomach. On another note, nothing I eat makes me feel sick other than the aforementioned vitamins, no nausea at all from any foods.  I seriously keep asking if I even had the surgery completed because I feel the same. I feel hungry and I FEEL THE SAME as before surgery. I am afraid I am going to be stuck here at 245lbs and not make any more progress. Did I choose the wrong surgery? Should I have done bypass instead of sleeve? Time will tell. Sigh - not a good day for me.

  2. My tailbone is not happy with my weight loss. I have to reposition SO OFTEN at my work desk because it starts hurting if I sit one way for too long. This has never been a problem for me before!

      It's a good sign! I have the same thing. Means that you're winning the game.

      I have the same problem. Soaking in a tub has become uncomfortable because I no longer have the cushion.

  3. Yesterday marks 1 year of my weight loss journey. My first weigh in after deciding to get bariatric surgery I was 259.4 lbs. Today I am 215 lbs. So happy where I'm at!

  9. Well this is my first post. I decided to get weight loss surgery about 4 months ago. I was going thru alot with my health. Shortness of breathe, pain in all my joints, and having problems walking. Well this journey actually started back in 2011 when I fell at work. Since then I have had 5 surgeries and one more that is being scheduled after weightloss surgery. I also had gained about 50 lbs and my health kept deteriorating . I had gone to several doctors for all my issues and had all the necessary test and had followed several different diets.Everything needed for surgery without actually knowing I had already meet all the criterias. So when I went to Brookdale Hospital for a my Gastric sleeve appointment i already had almost everythng I needed except physic , nutrionist, and sleep apnea test. Well as of the middle of May all paperwork was in and papers were submitted to Insurance Company and as of May 26 I have been approved for surgery. Surgery date is June 13, 2016 and I am now into my second week of pre-op diet . I started this journey with a weight of 230 I am 5'4" and now weigh 215. I have studied everything from pre-op diets, post-op diets and the journey afterwards. Well Im one week away from surgery and I am becoming more and more anxious with less and less energy. Doing everything correct following diet and taking all my vitamins and using all my protein powders yet finding it harder and harder to function as a normal person. Well I guess thats it for now Ill post again as time goes by.

  10. My stress-induced weight loss seems to be slowing. Two mornings in a row now with no loss, which is a big relief!

      That's good! I hope the stress in your life is getting better. I went through a period of about a year where my work stress was killing me. I was able to find a new job, thank goodness, and was so much happier.

  12. My weight loss tip of the day: Eat your meals while standing in front of a mirror naked. The restaurant will certainly kick you out before you can overeat!

    Before plastic surgery. Post weight loss

    I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery August 2011. I losit 120lbs. My weight on these pictures was 142lbs. They were taken my my plastic surgeon, Dr Victor Gutierrez located in Baja California, Tijuana, Mexico. I chose him as my plastic suregeon based on his educational background, experience, professionalism, health care concern and reasonable price quote. This pictures clearly show lots of extra skin. My asymmetrical breasts, hanging stomach, and flat butt.

  18. thank you weight loss fairies for taking those pounds away

  19. Sleeve is working, so why did I find myself ALMOST biting on some ridiculous miracle weight loss drops one of my friends is using? Dumb, dumb, dumb - get it together, girlie!

      It IS some crazy programming! It's also funny how, when you start losing weight, people who don't know what you're doing all of a sudden crawl out of the woodwork and try to sell you diet aids. There's no better diet aid than cutting out 80% of your stomach, lol.

    3. Djmohr

      Djmohr

      I still find it funny how every time I see an ad for some new diet miracle I find myself watching it and literally thinking I wonder if that works! LOL I think that was one of my worst bad habits, falling for a the crappy diet fads that did not work long term. Good job staying away!

  20. 3 months out and I'm losing all taste for food. I now because I have to. I don't really enjoy anything now. I hope this passes. I mean its good for my weight loss but it sucks to feel like I dont like my food all the time.

    1. ShrinkingPeach

      ShrinkingPeach

      For me I would rather have this new relationship with food and lose weight than be hungry and tempted by food. I needed this better relationship with food because the one I had was unhealthy.

      I dont mind the change in my relationship with food. I just mind not liking what I have to make myself eat. Im actually glad the sweet tooth is gone though. I dont miss that.

      Hi there. Glad to hear you're doing well. Can't wait to start on puréed food on Thursday! Your sleeve sister, Iris

      Congratulations to you both, @wascott and @salonmom! Wascott, I hear you on the exhaustion, I know I started to feel a million times better about a month out, but the first few weeks are definitely healing time for your body. But 2 1/2 months out I was back to walking 4 miles a day and feeling great about the whole process. Congratulations and keep up the good work!

      I hope I get that energy back. I've been doing some walks on the treadmill but I'm really dragging. I appreciate your insights.
