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.

      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.
