Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on July 18th....Starting weight: 254lbs, 5"2........I'm now 224 lbs so I'm down 30lbs but I've been in a stall for almost 3 weeks!! It's frustrating!!! Anyways I hope the scale will start moving again sooon!! Besides that my experience so far has been life changing. It was rough in the beginning but I would do it all over again... It is soooo worth it! I cannot waiiit to get below 200.....it's been sooo many years since I've seen those numbers lol....anyways--tell me your story :-) Good luck to everyone! Xoxo

Part of me is here, but I left 60 pounds back in July or August somewhere. I doubt I'll ever see them again.

Had my surgery on 7/6. I'm down 40lbs. So happy I did it. I would have to admit that food isn't that appealing anymore. Definitely a good thing for me. Although I do miss a few things... Then I step on the scale!

I was sleeved July 23. Started around 280, last weigh in at md's office had me at 252 (about a week and a half ago). I think I've lost some more, and quit the dang stall that lasted from 2 weeks postop till just before last weigh in, but don't know for sure since scale at home is not trustworthy. But scrubs at work are looser!

I was sleeved on July 30th and was down 34lbs when I went for my for my 2nd visit on 8/28! Hoping to be under 300lbs when I go back in October. I refuse to have a scale @ home right now and only go by the scale at my doctor's office. I'm just concentrating on getting my proteins/fluids in and exercise. Hopefully, he will clear me to start Water exercises and weights.

      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.
