Nov Sleevers... What's Your Status?



Recommended Posts

Hey November sleevers!

Great work& congrats!!!

HW: 245lbs, 5'4"

Sleeved 11/16: wt 225lbs

CW: 164lbs. Total loss of ~80 lbs. I feel great. My mom had my jeans I wore in high school on a closet 13 years ago& I can fit a size 12, down from a 24. Had social problems with friends becoming catty towards me. It's odd how much nicer strangers are to me though. I'm really humbled by how the sleeve has helped me. It's the best thing I've done for myself. I aim for 800calories 60+ grams protein& under 50 carbs per day.i can exercise again& sprint with my dog. I want to lose at least 30 lbs more. Thank to everyone on VST who has inspired me& kept me on track.

Hello all checking in...surgery was Nov. 7th I have lost 94 lbs. Good: feel free. Dropped a few clothing sizes' date=' able to do so many things physically w/o pain.....loving life! Bad: Hit my first stall...been there a few weeks & my hair is thinning rapid. Still even with the bad it was the best decision ever.... My life has changed dramatically![/quote']

I wonder if you need more Protein. My Nut recommended I stick to a minimum of 80g of Protein because I was on the taller side. Just a thought!

I can't believe how much my life has changed since nov 12... Highest weight was 233. Today 154! Never thought I would see the day. This Summer has been so fun, dating and wearing size 10 white jeans! Someone pinch me! :) The only real downside is the saggy skin and deflated boobs... But nothing a good bra can't fix! I'm not going to complain about that! :) cheers to all the success of my fellow November sleevers!! :)

      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.
