My surgery was March 6th. Starting weight was 220. Surgery date was 207. Today is 175. No issues with Water and Protein. Usually get about 80 oz of liquids not including my shake in the morning. Protein is 70-80 grams.

I feel great and the inches are melting off. Don't lose as fast as some but I am thrilled. It's still over 3 pounds per week that will never come back.

I had a very easy time with surgery and recovery so I have been one of the lucky ones in that way. I feel like my life is back to normal but in a healthy way. I feel in control, and feel healthy inside and out!

I love my sleeve and am sure this was the best step I could have taken for my health!

I was sleeved on March 7th and have lost 40 pounds so far. No one had noticed yet' date=' or at least they hadn't said anything to me until yesterday. I decided to try on an old dress that I wore 8 years ago when I was a whole lot thinner. It fit so I wore it to church. You should have seen people's eye bug out when they saw me. Made my whole day![/quote']

Good for you Skinnyginny. :)

I was sleeved 3/19. I am so happy with my sleeve! I am having a bit if trouble with Water and vitamins' date=' it sounds as though I am not the only one. Before surgery I was able to drink 3 liters of Water a day with no problem, but now I am good if I get in 48-50. Of course I would like to have lost more by now, but it is coming off. 20+ inches overall.

It is a wonderful feeling to be satisified with such a small amount of food. We have taken 5 small trips in the past 2 months and eating out is so easy! Just ask the waiter for exactly what you want even off menu and there are no questions! Went to a BBQ joint with a group of people and I ordered 4 ounces of BBQ chicken and cucumbers, the waitress just said OK!

Loving life![/quote']

My experience has been similiar, vowed I would not change my social life, eating out has been easy. We're much more self consious about it then others are.

I was sleeved on March 11 & reached my first big goal - 50 pounds down!! It's hard to see results when looking in the mirror every day' date=' but when I compared my "before surgery picture" to this one I took this past weekend, I could really see myself shrinking! I don't know about you guys, but I'm sooooo glad I made the decision to have surgery![/quote']

You look fantastic, my surgery was March 18th and I'm at a stall at 40 pounds down, hoping to join the fifty club soon.

Continued success to you.

I was sleeved on 3/6 and I'm down 51lbs. I'm very proud of my weight loss but I still have some work to do. I'm in no pain at all, but I struggle with exercising. I haven't done any :( , cause I'm sooo lazy. I also struggle with taking all my Vitamins. I need to get on board because I don't want to regain the weight and I want to be healthy. I don't regret my decision to have the surgery. In fact, I wish I would have done it years ago! :)

Sleeved March 11. Sw 243 Cw 195. I have no problems - no pain, nausea, etc. I am at about 600-700 calories a day. My breathing issues have resolved themselves. I have blood work next week and I am hoping to reduce BP and/or Diabetes meds.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
