I was sleeved on 8/27 I'm down 22 lbs I'm still on mushy foods I mainly eat cottage cheese, egg salad mixed with light Salad Dressing. I only eat 1/4 cup and I eat 3 times a day. I did make some baked Beans today with no meat and I sprinkled some splenda brown sugar on them before baking. Tasted pretty good! Good luck to everyone!!! Belinda

I was sleeved on 8/21 @ 248.8 DOS as of my appt on 9/13 I was 233.5. I'm having some bad back pains and was referred to a specialist. My appt is on Monday. The Dr told me to start on soft foods at my appt. I didn't do well during the purre/ mushy stage nothing tasted right after it was blended, so hopefully after my appt on Monday I can go food shopping.

Sleeved 8/21.

Still on soft foods for another week. I'm doing ok. liquids are easy for me. I'm finding that my 'food lazy's' are coming back and sometimes I'd rather just drink a Protein shake than go into the kitchen and fix food. That laziness made me fat, so I really need to be careful.

Highest weight: 253

DOS: 234

Last weeks weight: 214

I'm losing gradually compared to the average 'honeymoon' losses, and I really don't mind. I lost a lot pre-surgery so I'm sure my body is just adjusting. 20 pounds in almost a month isn't something I could have done w/o my sleeve!

I was sleeved 8/22 and down 21 lbs. I too seem to be stuck here but I've heard that there can be a stall at three weeks. I feel like I'm losing inches faster than weight.

Hey all,

I am 2 weeks post op. Had the Sleeve done on August 31st. Since pre op I have lost 36lbs. Down from 282-246. Although the past week I have had a stall in weight loss. I am keeping my fluids up. I have been having trouble reaching the 75-90g of protien a day. I am up to about 60g. I started full liquids this week. It was so nice to eat something warm. I tried a little to soon to eat some tuna pureed and I paid the price I had terrible reflux. I also seem to have developed a lactose intolerence after surgery. Has anyone else experienced this. Has anyone else had a stall this soon? Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks!!

Jason

I too can't seem to get milk down.. But I can handle cheese. I've read that milk is hard on your stomach so I bought some skim milk but I'm still afraid to try it. Hoping it gets better with time

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
