feb 2013 sleevers weigh in



Recommended Posts

Sleeved on 3/13. 311 was my high weight, 294 on day of surgery. Today I weighed in at 263 for a total weight loss of 48 pounds. All my clothes pretty much no longer fit and I'm feeling pretty good.

No problem. I would have been a bit worried for you had that been the case :-)

Went for my one month appointment yesterday and I now weigh 235. I started at 261 before the pre op diet. Day of surgery I weighed 251. 2 week post op appointment I weighed 238. I was stalled but I upped my Water and was able to go down to 235. Doctor said to keep doing what I'm Doug and expect a loss of 5-10 lbs a month. Slow but steady stays the course.

Me 2... It's so depressing when you stall.. U feel like is this it?! Is this all I'm going to loose? I walk alot drink plenty of fluids... & stalling 3weeks now the scale has not moved.. I'm thinking I'm I over eating? Even tho I can't eat much? Like what is happening :-(

Mee too :( I lost 10 lbs the first week post op surgery. It is now 3 weeks and the scale has not not moved at all. I'm getting so discouraged seeing the high numbers everyone else is losing.

I too am a slow looser. Just rememeber it is coming off in inches probably! Thatb is how mine is working. Just re evaluate your Protein and Water. And slow means you most likely won't loose your hair.< /p>

Hit 6wks out Thursday and down 45lbs on the nose. I only started taking measurements at 1 month 4days out, but have since lost a total of 9 inches off my neck, waist, and hips (combined). Water intake is so much easier as I can drink easier these days. I don't really don't drink much else, but I will have an occasional glass of skim milk. I've gotten the husband to alter his eating habits slightly (replacing ground beef with found turkey for recipes, skim milk, more veggies and lean protein) so this has been a family journey :) pretty awesome so far. Hope everyone is doing well!!

The best thing i can tell everyone is, the scale will move again. I stalled for two weeks and i uped my calories and quite worrying so much and that helped me get moving. I found a great article that discribes the physiology behind the stall and its prerectly normal. So good luck to everyone and doing a dance im finally down 37

      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.
