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 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? :(

      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.
