Recommended Posts

Hello

Sx date nov 15

Highest weight 255

Sx weight 229

Today's weight 177.2

Total lost 77

I'm in a current stall any suggestion?

I was stalled at 162 for 3 weeks scale kept going down then back up...I just kept doing what I am supposed to and tracking and last week the stall broke.I don't know any special tricks to break a stall faster nor am I sure they really would work any how. That is just my opinion though. My 11/7 Sx weight was 218 CW 158.The stalls seem to come and go naturally but the loss continues :)

His scale was nicer than my home scale it read 157 and my Dr. was very happy with my progress :) He said my weightloss will make a U on the graph because the more I lose the harder it will get which I believe bc in the 11 weeks since my last visit to my Dr. I lost 17 lbs and that is much less then weeks before but the 1-2Lbs./week loss rate is where he wants his patients at this point.27 more till goal!!!

Haven't checked in for awhile, but I have posted pictures now of comparing before I had lap band, then before the sleeve and now my progress, along with my hubby's. He had about 20-30 to lose and did so with a special plan and exercise. He's almost to goal and I would like to lose about 30 more and then reassess.http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/gallery/image/19581-comparison-photos/ Not sure how to post pics but I think that link will take you to our progress pics! Have a great day everyone! Feeling good and know that I am BLESSED!

Also my blood work was great!!! I can try and wean myself off the omeprozele if I don't have reflux!! I just realized I didn't take it today and this is the first day my stomach growled since surgery. I wonder if there was more acid in there. Will have to check it the next time I don't take it.

That is wonderful. I started at 230 and my goal for 6 months is 170. But 160 would be great. LOL

Good morning November sleevers. Just a quick check-in for me. Highest weight 300 lbs. Surgery weight 289 (11/15/12). Current weight 206.4! That's a total of 93.6 pounds GONE forever! I am so close to the 100 weight loss mark, and just as close to being in the one hundred's in weight. Hoping to hit that mark in the next week or two. Feeling great and loving my new life!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
