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

I was 273@ surgery, and at 5'4", I am now 243/240...depending on what scale I want to believe! While I am excited about the 30lb weight loss, I thought it would be more (Oh, I was sleeved July 3rd). I have however, lost lots of inches, and given away LOTS of clothes. Like you, I have been experiencing a protracted stall. Even with consistent, strenuous exercise at a boot camp...these pounds are so stubborn! I actually think I am not eating enough, and I know my Protein intake is not up to par. Good luck to us all!

Update, weighed in at 240 today at my pcp's office, so now down 40+ pounds!

A little more info, I'm 5'5", sleeved 7/23. Previous weigh in was about 3 weeks ago, and I'm down 11 lbs since that one.

I'm not sure about anyone one else but for me, I drink two cans of Pure Protein from trader joes everyday. I drink the one with 35 grams of protein. This way i have no doubt that I get my protein in.

Sleeved July 6 - down 55lb. Probably another 30 to go. Although, I'm feeling great! I can see how it would be easy to fall back into the old ways. I have to watch myself - eat properly and drink all the Water. But - it is still coming off.

      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.
