SyrRose 2 Posted January 11, 2013 Hello all.. I'm Syrian Sleeved on Oct. 22 Was 222.5 lbs (101 kg.) now after 12 weeks , I'm 179 lbs (81.2 kg.) Not satisfied with how much I lost, I know people did it later and lost more.. The problem is that my Dr gave me no diet program for more than 4 weeks.. now I eat whatever I want.. 1 PetraLuxor reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saudisleeve 21 Posted January 11, 2013 Yes I was sleeved in the Middle East and doing really well but have been given no food plan to follow so I rely more on what is said here. I think you are doing really well so keep going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SyrRose 2 Posted January 11, 2013 I think you are doing really well so keep going. Thank you.. What I'm worried about, is the Vitamins, I take one Centrum pill daily, which as I read here is not enough... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saudisleeve 21 Posted January 11, 2013 I know what you mean. I was told just to take the Centrum too. Nothing else except nexium twice a day although I feel I only need it in the morning. I am having blood tests run every three months to keep an eye on any deficiency so I suppose I will have to wait and see. What about you. Are you having blood work done?

SyrRose 2 Posted January 11, 2013 I was sleeved on October 22nd , so no three months passed yet.. But I will do some blood tests on January 22nd... Are you having Constipation problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also a medicine to prevent gall stones[/quote'] I'm only taking one Centrum pill daily, and when I asked the dr if I should take Vit.B 12 his answer was, it's not necessary.. I'm so confused, could you please send me the diet program you are following.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selbradey 321 Posted January 11, 2013 My program is basically high Protein low carb low sugar. I will snap a picture of the stuff the doc gave or post a link soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I-used-to-be-fat 8 Posted January 11, 2013 Hey!! I'm Egyptian but born and raised in NYC! I went to Cairo to get sleeved since I didn't really meet the criteria to be covered by my insurance. I was sleeved 12/22/12. I weight 225. Three weeks later I am 203. 2 PetraLuxor and selbradey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
