Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call



Recommended Posts

Morning and Happy Holiday's!! I'm trying to stay focus but it's really hard. I need to get back on my Protein Shakes to get off this stall. Working out daily but not losing.

Still determined that we can continue what we started!! Keep the Faith!!

Sugar is the enemy!!! I ate a cupcake the other day for the first time in a long time and boy did I regret it... Heart went to racing. I didn't like it and I know it was the sugar. Once we start eating it even in small amounts we begin to crave it so we have to avoid it.

Help! I was sleeved on Sept 24th 2012 and have been in a 2 month stall. I exercise 3-4times a week. My food choices are not always the best but I don't eat much of it.

Is anybody going through the same thing? Were you able to get over the stall? What did you do? I was thinking of going back to the Protein Shakes for a few weeks.

I have restarted to track my food on fitness pal…hopefully that will help.

Your on the right path...... Log every bite you put in your mouth.

I need to get back to basics myself. Good luck!!!!

I've been in a stall for months. Totally not uncommon. Not gaining weight, (except at that TOM -- and it goes back down)...but not losing either.

For me, I know I need to step up the exercise. Must be more diligent.

Green & Mom: I started the Protein Shakes yesterday. I'll try that for a week and see how it goes. Hopefully it will kick start some kind of weight loss. Really need to see a smaller number on that scale!

Good luck to both of you too.

Hello everyone!!!!!! I think we all need to check in and see where we are????

Let me start us off. I'm up a few pounds and need to gain control now. I've been struggling with maintaining my weight for a while now. I find it easy to eat junk. chips and cocktails have not been my friend. I told my husband today that I must work harder. I've worked to hard to get here and don't want to see my weight slowly creep up. I need to weigh myself more often to stay on top of this gain.

How are you all doing???

TamaraS, I started at 333 lbs and now weigh 212. I can't seem to get back on track! I still don't eat much in one sitting but I graze all day long...and not the foods I should be eating. I am exercising which is the only reason I'm not gaining back any weight.

Green: I know what you mean, I've stopped weighing in...guess I'm too scared at what I'll see!

Need to get back on track.

TamaraS, I forgot to ask, what was your surgeon's generalization?

Yes, I started out at 376 and am currently about 283. Have been for a year. Can't seem to budge it. Feel like I'm actually not eating enough. Possible?

What were those "generalizations" you mentioned?

      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.
