Nealry A Year Already!



Recommended Posts

My year sleeve anniversary is almost a month away, on August 30. I have lost 95 lbs and feel amazing! I really want to be to my goal of 155 but know it might not happen. How have the rest of you got back/stayed on track at this point in your journey? I do well most days but slip more than I would like. Any tips?

Awesome! Congrats on your success! July 11 was my 6 month surgiversary. I've lost 70lbs till now and have 20+ pounds to lose to make my surgeons goal of 165. I think I can do it before my 1 year mark. My dream goal of 130 seems very far at this moment LOL!

What is your current weight?

I am 9 months post op and have lost approximately 77 lbs. I have a bounce of about 4 lbs periodically. I eat mostly Proteins and veggies. I don't like breads, pastas, rice, and have cut back on potatoes. I can actually eat more now than before. It is very easy to get off course and have foods I don't need to eat. I find myself eating mindlessly at times, but still can't get too much food in. I would like to get down to 135 lbs, but I haven't really lost anything for a few weeks. I really want to focus on eating healthy and lean for now on. I really have to watch fats and eat lean now. I love my sleeve! :)

Anyone having big issues with loose skin? I am planning on getting sleeved by beginning of August. I need to loose around 120-135 lbs. and am worried about alot of loose skin. I am big up top and bottom so hoping that will help but the arms and stomach skin are my biggest concern. Anyone got any advice?

      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.
