June 2013 Sleevers! "The List"



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on June 18, 2013. I'm 5'6" and my starting weight was 365. My current weight is 310. I was hoping to be out of the 3's, but my doc says I'm doing fine. My workout regime consists of walking outdoors or doing the Leslie Sanson "Walk Away the Pounds" DVD daily. I aim for at least 8 cups of Water and eat mostly fish, chicken and bites of cooked veggies if I'm not full.

I was sleeved June 18th. I have lost only 34lbs. I had lost 11lbs before surgery. Feeling depressed now because I can eat bread when most people on here say it took them about 9 months before they could even tolerate it. I ate too much today. I need to figure out how to shrink my sleeve back. Feeling like it's too stretched out right now.

I did at first. Then this weekend I took 3 large trash bags and filled them with clothes I could no longer wear. I realized, ok this is real.

Then this AM, I literally could not wear pants I could on Friday. They were too big. So yes, I'm finally seeing it in the mirror.

I feel the same way. To me I look the same in the mirror, I really don't see it pics too much either. But everyone around me sees it. I feel like the scale is the devil. Lol

The scale says one thing and my clothes says something completely different. So I know that my weight loss is more in inches than in pounds right now. I was wearing a 26/28 pants and I bought a size 20 skinny leg jeans (haven't worn a 20 in about 21 years) yesterday and I was sleeved June 3rd. Still in the end I'm happy that I'm getting smaller and not bigger.

Good afternoon! I'm not sure if I'm missing a thread or forum but, I'm not seeing much content from fellow June surgeries. Is everyone on the FB page? If so, how can I find it?

I had my surgery June 26. I've lost 29 lbs - about 12 percent. I have not lost weight in two weeks. Ugh. Any advice is appreciated.

      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.
