November 2012 sleevers



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved Nov 14th. My total start weight was 292lbs. I've gotten done 197lbs. Then I keep fluctuating back up to 200 or 201. This has been going on for 2-3 wks. It's frustrating. I have started working out. But I worry I'm not going to lose anymore.

Well I've been stuck at the same weight for so long I've lost count! Welcome to the sixth month people :(

Some days I am at a place of peace with my weight loss so far, some days (like today) I am not!

I was sleeved 11/12 I've lost 61 lbs so far I feel great. I've never been this comfortable in my own skin. I have about 20lbs to go! I've recently found out I had gallstones I will be having surgery next week. Good job everyone!!!

Did you take meds to prevent this? I recently finished a bottle of meds to prevent gallstones and I have been pretty sporadic in taking this. I was just wondering if this is something I should worry about?

You should read the forum about doubling the Water and Protein. I was in a 2 month stall and tried it and it worked!

I am so thankful for this forum and all your comments. I was interested to see if I had slower progress than others but it seems we are all chugging along together! So proud of everyone and their progress!!!

I wanted to update:

Surgery date: 11/7

Surgery day: 230 lbs

This morning:141.2 lbs

I am 5"6' and my initial goal first was 150, then it became 145 because it was the best for me. I had a Tummy Tuck when i was 143 lbs 3 weeks ago and i gained up to 7 pounds Water weight. Now am back down to 141 3 weeks after the surgery and my goal changed to 135... I think i am addicted to seeing the scale move am still not ready to transition to maintenance. My question is: is 135lbs a far fetch and too much for me? :(

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
