Sleeved on March 20th, 2013. Still eating only 600-800 calories a day, and most foods still hurt. Soft foods are best still for me. But this too shall pass. I am feeling so much better otherwise.

Hello! I was sleeved March 6, 2013. Surgery weight was 221 my current weight as of today is 179 total lost of 42 so far, no stalls. I pretty much eat a well balanced diet, for breakfast (protein shake, oatmeal or egg whites w/ almonds) lunch (salad with lean Protein, I still do not eat red meat or pork and dont intend to) Snacks (greek yogurt, string cheese, fresh fruit/fresh veggies, pickles) Lots of Water dinner (protein shake or leftover lunch) I do eat bread and sweets and starch very moderately and only maybe once or twice a week... for the most part it's a clean diet, work out 5 times a week... and seeing great results....

I was sleeved 3/29. Down 34 lbs. went through a 3 week stall which was TOUGH! Just came out of the stall with 4 pounds lost. Oatmeal, Greek yogurt or egg for breakfast, string cheese snack, small piece of baked fish or Protein Shake for lunch, fruit or a little hummus for afternoon snack, and a bite of whatever Protein the family has for dinner. Walking helps a lot!

I was sleeved 4/1. Down 25 pounds. Going though a 4 week stall and still no weight loss.

Greek yogurt or egg for breakfast

tuna or turkey breast for lunch...sometimes a Protein shake

laughing cow cheese and wasa crisp snack

whatever dinner is for family.

Haven't gotten much exercise in except for walking here there, but nothing steady.

Trying to get at least 64oz of fluids daily.

Really hope the weight loss starts up again.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
