Recommended Posts

Congrats to all of you!! Amazing losses...

Wish I could say the same for myself :( iv lost 10lbs since surgery on 3/28. Total loss of 18lbs. Sigh. Doc says I'm not losing more because I can't get my calories in. So iv been forcing myself to eat round the clock and more than I really want to eat. Seems odd makig myself eat to lose weight :-/

Here's to hoping for a bump in loss.

Sleeve Date: March 28, 2013 Weight on surgery date: 281 First Goal 50lbs: July 13, 2013 (231)

Wow congrats all. I'm 5 weeks out, down 22lbs (2 pant sizes) I honestly wish it was more but ill settle for any weight loss.

I'm averaging 500 calories a day and wondering if uping my calories will boost the weight loss.

The past two weeks I've only lost 1lb each week. :-( kinda bummed about that. Worried I may not even make it close to my goal weight at this pont. Just gotta keep pushing forward I suppose

Sleeved 3/29, down 13 since surgery, 28 total. I hope I'm not in the three week stall. This is the first day my weight stayed the same in a while. If so, I'll just stop weighing for a while.

Wow all of you are BIG LOSERS!!! I congratulate you!!!!!! Since surgery I've lost 30#'s. Pre and Post Op I've lost a total of 61#'s!!!

Now for my question' date=' how much are you eating at a sitting? 4 oz? 6 oz? 8 oz? Or are you eating till full? Today I feel like I've eaten a lot more than yesterday. I'm getting concerned, I don't want to stretch my sleeve out![/quote']

I was sleeved on 3/25 and have lost 10 pounds so far. Today starts week 3 and I was UP .8 lb - I guess the "stall" has happened to me. I'm also curious how many calories everyone is taking in. I average between 500-600/day and am getting 55-60 grams of Protein.

I do feel like my energy is back, though I still get really tired at the end of the day. Had a very busy weekend and could not keep my eyes open past 8:00 last night - so I went to bed and slept til 5 AM! Needless to say, I'm feeling really good this morning!

      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.
