Feb Sleevers 2012 How Much Have You Loss/ Any Concerns



Recommended Posts

So far I have lost 61 pounds. I was sleeved on 2-10-12. My biggest concern is that I can't take anti-inflammatory meds any more and I am in terrific pain from my back and a bad knee. Oh well, guess I have to take the good with the bad. :(

congrats 61 pounds is great!!!!

Surgery date 2/23 starting weight 217 now 180.

Does anyone drink with a straw? If so how has it affected you if at all.?

I only drink with a straw. I get way to much air if I don't. I think each person is different so it just depends on how you do it!

I was sleeved on Feb 28th starting weight 205 current weight 173 so a total of 32 lbs. I have hit a stall and I am very concerned. I worry to much. Can the stomach stretch back out? I am able to eat 900 calories a day. I work out 3 x a week at Zumba and do an elliptical the other 4 days a week. I think I just need the scale to budge' date=' I would like to see 169 lbs soon.[/quote']

Me too Angela and I was sleeved the same day as you.

Bought size 16 pants today! Down from size 22, surgery date 2/7/12. scale has stalled but clothes sizes still going down. I need to get better with my exercise so I can get those 26 lbs gone and reach onderland. I can't wait to fly next week to see what a difference it makes in the airplane seat!

      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.
