February Sleeves How Are You Doing?



Recommended Posts

Was sleeved 2/14 I feel healthier then ever. I lost 32 lbs so far. I have a ton of energy and I love to workout. I go to gym at least 3-4 times a week. I walk for 30 a day. I keep my calories under 700. I am able to eat 3-4 oz of fish, turkey or chicken somedays. I am burned out on yogurt, cottage cheese and ricotta. I found I can tolerate Decaf coffee Foldgers called smooth. I love sheetz non fat cold latte. Dq has spelenda smoothies with Protein, sometimes I bring my own protein.

I am feeling great! Still struggling to get all my liquids in between meals, but doing great with my Protein. I had a long stall, but increased my calories to about 1000 and started losing again. I am trying to do 4 to 5 meals a day to get my protein and calories in. I had trouble with getting my protein with 3 meals a day so my doctor said it was fine to do 5 small meals, so much easier! My clothes are getting so baggy, it is awesome.

I was sleeved on 2/13/12, have lost a total of 32 lbs (including pre-op diet), I am eating about 1100 calories a day (trying to get in that 70 gms of protein!), and feeling pretty dang good. I have to start moving more. I have been so sedentary for so long I think I have forgotten how to be otherwise!

I did a scary thing yesterday - I ordered summer clothes online in two sizes smaller than I am now. We are going to Florida in July (which is also insane) and I needed to get some clothes, but I didn't want to buy clothes that fit me now. I think this is called "counting your chicks before they're hatched" :-)

I was thinking if getting some goal clothes for my July vacation too! We can count those chicks together.

My clothes are so baggy now you cant tell I lost anything.

I am glad everyone is doing great. I too have ordered smaller clothes hoping they will fit. Has anyone stalled yet? What are your favorite food?

oh yeah, I had a month long stall. I think I'm going to be one of those "stall, lose, stall, lose" step-method of weight loss people. Frustrating but to be ignored ;-)

Favorite food: lamb - ground or chops or roasted with mint/apple jelly .

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
