Any July 17Th Sleevers Or Close To That Date

[ImprovedDreamerGirl 2]

I was just wondering how much weight have you lost? I'm almost down 20 pounds and I feel like I'm going slow. I started at 235 now I'm at 217. I started to do some stomach crunches 2 days ago. I try to do at least 35 crunches each night.

Congrats on losing 20 lbs!

My surgery was on July 16 and as of this morning I have lost 29 lbs. The rate of loss has slowed since the first 3 weeks. I started at 260 and was at 231 this morning. I haven't started the stomach crunches yet, but am walking at least 30 minutes a day and doing lite free weight lifting for about 5 minutes 3 times a week. My biggest struggle is getting all the Water and Protein in!

I was sleeved on July 18. I'm down 30lbs total (15 preop). I walk on the treadmill about 5x a week for 30-45mins a day, and jog for a few minutes in there.

I feel like I'm loosing slowwwwww. But, I will take it! As long as that scale keeps going down and not up, it's okay with me

Same here, my surgery was July 29th and I lost 10 pre-op and another 20 pounds since surgery. I also feel like I am slow moving particularly since I lost so much the first week.

Water and Protein are a daily struggle. I've been taking classes at LA Fitness 4-5 times a week.

Keep it up ladies!

I lost almost 40 lbs pre-op starting in April up through my July 17 surgery. I've lost about 21 since surgery.

I am not really worried about the speed of weight loss, though, because I assume it will be at least a couple of pounds a week no matter what, and will probably be more. If you add that up over a year, that's a lot of weight to drop in a relatively short period of time.

I'm actually looking forward to a few weeks out when I can increase my calories past 500. I want to start some weight training, and it is hard to put on any muscle at 500 calories/day. The biggest thing it has done for me, so far, is to help get an initial chunk of weight off, start getting in shape and make some steady progress. The carb, hunger and Portion Control aspects help A LOT toward those ends.

Good luck.

I have lost 25 lbs since my July18th surgery. Still trying hard to get all my liquids in, have finally been getting my Protein down. Not working out yet, but can start on Wednesday:)

I was sleeved on July 18th and lost 17 pounds in the first 2 weeks, I have not lost anything since, I guess week 3 was a stall, I added soft solids, I'm in week 4 now and I'm hoping when I weigh again on Wednesday it will go down. I'm not excersizing as much as I should, just hard working full time and single mom to find the time. Is there anyone else who experienced the stall, I'm getting very depressed like this was a waste of time, and I am only getting in about 400-600calories compared to the 2000-3000 before hand. Highest weight 280, lost 10 pre-op and 17 since surgery, now 253. I hope this stall doesnt last a long time!!

I had my surgery on July 9th and I've lost about 30 pounds post-op. I'm pretty steady with weight loss so far: I lose a pound about every 3 days. I'm sure this will taper off at some point. I'm not concerned though, as long as I'm somewhere near my goal a year from now.

I had my surgery July 17th and I have lost 30 pounds and haven't lost any for the past week. I'm just trying to focus on the big scheme of getting to a goal as opposed to how much I lose weekly because from what I have read and heard, focusing on each pound can be disappointing at times.

[murfsgirl 22]

My surgery was July 17th, lost 18lbs, haven't lost anymore since last Sunday!! Actually I gained back a lb!! I am getting all of my Protein and liquid and between 600 to 700 calories, I see my surgeon on Wednesday, hope to get some advise.

My surgery was on July 16 and I've lost 27 lbs (12 preop and 15 post op). Seems like I've stalled. Just added soft foods 7 days ago. Exercise can begin tomorrow. Hoping to pick up the pace then.
