Livinglifeout 217 Posted November 5, 2012 I was sleeved 7/18 and I have lost 65 lbs so far. Wow I'm a July 18 sleever too and I'm exactly at 65lbs since surgery:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNewMimi 39 Posted November 20, 2012 It's 3 1/2 months since surgery and I feel normal. Is that normal?? I've lost 60.5 pounds since July 31st. I can eat whatever I want except for salad and tortillas and sausage. Because I can eat whatever, I have to be really careful. I still measure everything and sometimes I stop before I think I'm satisfied just because I'm nervous ill eat too much. I'm scared for the holidays... Anyone else? Update me!

Abadrooster 21 Posted November 20, 2012 Yes I as I become accustomed to foods with this new digestive system, holidays do concern me. It is not that I want to eat until i need to loosen my belt, it is more with the socializtion and the role food plays with the holiday celebrations. I have not made public announcements of my procedure, but people do know, yet it is still difficult for me to eat the small portions and answer the questions that are associated to my wieght loss. I remain conscious of what I take in and my activity level. 75lb lost since July 24, 2012. 110 since April when I first looked into WLS. The change has been Life Saving with out questions, it is just the questions of others that seem to bother me. Self conscious over weight loss. So wierd, Right? Should be jumping up and down since I am literally able to too now! 355 lb down to 245 lb's today. I need to come up with a quick answer about my wieght loss with out the drawn out conversation and still feel that I have been completely honest. "Keeping on for the new you" only works if I stay on the well road by maintaining a healthy diet. The saying "it only works if you work it" comes to mind.

Share this post Link to post Share on other sites hope2beslim 17 Posted November 24, 2012 Some years ago I did the lighter life diet, lost about 56lb over 4 month period, my hair fell out then, when I showered I could see clumps going down the plug hole. It was only temporary then, and when I started eating again (and put back on my weight) it all grew back. I am hoping when my weight stabilises the Hair loss will stop. I am comfortably in a size 12 and maybe soon will fit a size 10, which I ave never been!! How are you all doing firming up the flabby bits??? I bought a vibration plate... What a difference that has made. Only ten minutes a day of really non strenuous exercises and have toned up incredibly fast. Can't recommend it enough. Be interested to ear any other tips for toning up and getting rid of cellulite anyone as found Keep up the good work all you July sleevers.....
