90 Days Post Gastric Sleeve Surgery

[aliciar97 1]

Yesterday marked 90 days since my gastric Sleeve Surgery. Currently I have lost 33 lbs since the surgery and 38 lbs since I began my journey. So far I have enjoyed seeing the transformation happen in front of my eyes. I have made it a point to try and work out 5 days a week even if it is just doing crunches in bed. I have always been a fast eater so I still struggle with trying to eat too fast, which ultimately ends up sending me to the bathroom. I have learned quickly though when I am full, so over eating is usually not an issue.

Taking any pills daily has always been a weakness of mine, however I am getting used to it now since calcium citrate and one a day's are a part of my life indefinitely. I also struggle getting the full amount of my Protein in per day, but have been working on it.

I hope to post pic's soon - Keep up the good work everyone. I know I do not regret my decision for one second - I miss food - but not as much as I love the way I am beginning to feel.

You're progressing well Alicia! Great job! Definitely slowing down will help a lot, but the first few months are all learning curve to your new sleeve.

Cheers as you continue on your journey!

It is good to see you are progressing well. Be careful chewing! lol.

The absent-minded or quick eating is going to be a problem for me also. I have always been that way.

A friend suggested I eat with my left hand, so I have to pay attention more, lol.

I am almost 3 months out, and must confess I still eat too fast! The left hand idea is great, and i'm going to try that! Glad to hear you are positive, I like looking in the mirror too and seeing the changes here and there around my body. Congrats on making it this far with a positive attitude!
