Fellow sleevers

Since my WLS DOS 12/15/11 i have lost 55 lbs. WooHoo. right? Well....

My heighest weight was 235, down now to 180. Sounds good right? not necessarily.

When I went to my CPAP appt. today 4/17/12 - talked about my WLS and how i've lost 55 lbs. Doc was very happy for me. I was very hopeful to get rid of my machine.

I asked what did i weigh earlier when i started CPAP back in Oct. 2010 - she told me 170 lbs. What? That is 10 lbs less than i weigh now at 180 lbs. Whats wrong with this picture?

My jaw literally dropped. Luckily the appt. was just about over. Doc noticed i was bummed and felt bad. How could he not? I just couldn't believe it, i now am 180 - after losing 55 lbs. I had been so happy, now.. i'm bummed. whats wrong with this picture?

I know, i know i should just be happy that i realized i was going up and up with my weight, and if i continued - i would turn into...... ...well lets use our imagination.

So now i am trying to be responsible, looking only forward, realizing with the help of my new and improved wonderful sleeve i will not only make it to goal, but stay there for my health, and all the other good reasons we have.

when i realized i better knock it off, and get a grip and lose this weight to get healthy etc. well, i know i'm on the right track, don't plan on being derailed?

My sleeve and i will be fine - and i'll continue to get better and better day by day.

From my lips to Gods ears

your optimistic sleever

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
