Hi June Sleevers!

Sleeved on 6/15 and down 70lbs. Hoping to lose another 20lbs. I'm in my 50's so I'm not concerned with being ultra slim. My goal was to be healthier and more active, and I feel that now.

Surgery was 6/11/12. Was 223 day of surgery. I lost 47 pounds pre op from 2/1/12-6/11/12. Today weighed in at 144.4. My personal weight goal is 130-140 for my 5'4" height. Wearing size 8 jeans & small/medium tops. A year ago I weighed 270 pounds & wore 24 pants & 3xl tops!

Is anyone still around? If so, how are you doing now?

Me: 5 foot tall

Started at 215

Now: 130

Goal was 115, but I wonder how that will look... I'm pretty thin right now at 130. I have kind of large muscles and bones...

I am going to take it 10 pounds at a time right now.

My new goal right now is 122.

Sleeved June 16th. Down 76 lbs . Hope to lose another 15 lbs. The weight loss is slowing down. I'm not getting my fluids in, and not eating like I should. Time to get back on the wagon!

Im in the same boat..started 240 and at 198 now. My eating habits are awful and no exercise. I need motivation to get back on track.

my original goal was 175, but i only picked that goal because when i graduated high school, i was 185 and i was the fat friend then. however, i am now at 192 and in smaller jeans than i wore in the 9th grade. guess my body changed a little bit :) here are my stats

before surgery: height - 5'6", weight - 373, jeans - 56" waist, shirt - 5-6x

present day: height - 5'6.5" (lol, i guess either my spine decompressed or i'm standing straighter now) weight - 192, jeans - 30" waist, shirt - large to 1x.

rockin the sleeve! hope you all are doing well.

oh yeah, i forgot. i was sleeved on june 5, 2012.

and like the earlier poster, i think i'd still like to drop to 185, but i think if i go much further than that, people will start thinking that i'm using crack to drop weight! so, we'll see what 185 looks like for now.

I am 5 foot tall and 122 pounds, down from 215. My secret fantasy goal is 115. I wonder if I will be able to get there. My bones and muscles are not of the teeny tiny variety. My surgery was June 20, 2012.

Good Afternoon Everyne,

I was sleeved on June 11, 2012. I started out at 280lbs at 5'10" and with PCOS. A year later I'm down 90lbs and have been holding at that weight loss for a while now. How will I know when the weight loss is finished? I would love to get another 10lbs off but not sure if it will happen. Help...

I would also like to lose 10 more. I am solidly at 90 pounds down, but I don't know if 10 more is possible now when I look at myself...

      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.
