My Stats At 5 Weeks!



Recommended Posts

I am 5'3 and started my journey at 275lbs. I was sleeved on 8/28.

As of today, I have lost a total of 28 lbs, I am down to 248 and a total of 33.4 inches!

I can't see it yet and I have a distorted way of looking at myself, but many people have commented on the changes they see. Just wanted to share

Our stats are about the same. I am 5'2" and started at 272 lbs. I was sleeved 8/30. As of today, I am at 237, down 35 lbs. I have not measured myself, so I have no input on inches - but I'm down about 2 sizes in clothes!

My gut and butt have very noticeably shrank - thank god for that! :rolleyes:

You were all a bit before me - my surgery was 9/10. I haven't weighed in several days but know I've lost at least 25 pounds. I can tell in some places my gut seems to be very resistant to shrinking :( I'd sure like to see some progress there - SOON!

Congrats on everyone's success!

Sleeved 9/13 down 17 pounds start weight 197. Pushing through the three week stall. Finally dropped another pound. Jogging a mile on the treadmill everyday. Work hard on getting Protein and Water. Sometimes it's harder than others . I am eating some of my protien now. I get full fast though. Going to a nut group class tonight at Forest park medical . Hoping for some good info to help me on this journey.

      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.
