PAguy 27 Posted June 6, 2017 Hey guys, I am doing well. 3 weeks post op tomorrow and I am down almost 35lbs and I am at 231lbs now. Still trying to figure out how to eat properly, but so far I am very happy with the results. The first 2 weeks were really rough and I hope to NEVER have to go through that again. lol. 1 month until I go to Rehoboth Beach, DE with my friends for 4th of July week. I gotta put in a lot of work before then! Maybe i'll post some pics from the beach if my speedo looks good. hahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

defibvt 348 Posted June 12, 2017 Hello @Dabearo , It would be nice to see this group become more active. Especially in light that it is June and we should all be celebrating being PROUD... Hope everyone is enjoying themselves and loosing, maintaining and appreciating the new life they have been given. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobthebuilder 2 Posted June 12, 2017 Hi Guys! I had my sleeve on March 28th. I had to start my pre-op liquid diet on March 10th. From March 10th until March 28th I lost 26 lbs. Since my surgery i have lost an additional 49 lbs making my total weight loss 75 lbs. One area that I have been struggling with is my energy level. I get exhausted pretty easily now. Does anyone else struggle with this too? I am getting about 90 to 100 grams of Protein daily but i am thinking i may need more. Let me know your thoughts! For those of you that are thinking of getting the sleeve...i dont regret it for a second!!! Best thing i ever did! Hope everyone is doing well. Happy PRIDE!!!!🌈🌈🌈🌈 Shawn 1 defibvt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabearo 118 Posted June 12, 2017 Scheduled for my sleeve on Tuesday. 2 week pre op getting old. I'm ready to not have a starving feeling. Lost 22 lbs so far, so that's cool. Ive been practicing with recipes and Protein powders. So far I have frozen about 2 gallons of homemade Bone Broth, Tomato basil Soup and black bean soup. Made the best lemon ginger sf popsicles. Yummy. 1 defibvt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PAguy 27 Posted June 16, 2017 Anyone doing anything fun for Pride? I am sad I missed the march at DC pride, but I just wasn't up to it yet. We have a pride weekend in Philly this weekend and I am planning on going out. It will be weird though not drinking...... 1 defibvt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
