May sleevers results so far!



Recommended Posts

Things I can't currently tolerate: mayonaise' date=' ranch, creamy Soups, peppery smoked fish... anyone else having issues? Surgery was 6/25[/quote']

So far there's nothing I haven't been able to tolerate...not sure that's a good thing.

Lying poolside at the gym after a good workout. It's not coming off super fast. But, I'm sooooooo happy that its coming off. I'm gonna do cartwheels when the scale says 190 anything. I've been over 200lbs for soo long.

Put this side by side together tonight... Crazy!

I posted a few pics last week but I see it so much better with a close up!

Still don't feel like I'm the size I am.. Brain hasn't caught up- but the pics help me see it better than a mirror everyday or the scale.

Btw my surgeon said something at my last visit when I asked about stalls.. It stuck with me.

Best way to break a stall- stop weighing yourself- do what you are supposed to do with your Protein, Water and exercise and the weight will go with time.

Hi I was sleeved on May 15th 2013. My heaviest weight was 236 pounds on a 5'2 1/2 inch body. I am on my scale 204 right now. I was last month on the 13th 213. I was very slow to loose as I was eating things I should not have eaten only very little of it. I only in 3 weeks lost one pound and my surgeon was upset! I really though I was doing well. He didn't! Well in the week since I saw him I am down to 204. I just eat cottage cheese with peaches, Greek plain white yogurt with cinnamon, sometimes half a banana, Progresso Soups, some salad, raisin bran Cereal with 1% milk. etc. Most foods to be honest are still very heavy in my stomach and I really don't enjoy eating too much anymore. It is a struggle emotionally but I will get thru it with God's help. I see my surgeon toward the end of Aug. and he told me that I had better be below 200 and I am sure I will be. Now that I know I am not able to eat just anything even though it was so little an amount.. Worst thing is I thought I was okay to do so. Glad I went in to talk to him.. Thanks for reading this. Sandy

      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.
