SBrand 0 Posted August 11, 2013 Had my 6 week follow up today. I'm down 28lbs and no longer morbidly obese!! Just curious how much other June 25 sleeved have lost. Hope you all are doing well! Congrats!! That's amazing! I'm down 31lbs since surgery on June 25. This past week I've been at a standstill weight wise. Hard not to get frustrated. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what foods I can handle. I keep telling myself that this struggle is going to be worth it. Hope everyone else is doing well!! It's been great to check back in on this thread to see you all so happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mocha-NJ 20 Posted August 24, 2013 I was sleeved on June 25th down 41 pounds 62 with pre op weight lost original weight was 362! It's getting a little hard to fight cravings but I got this June 25th down 33.6. I don't have alot of cravings. But usually if I want something I'll have it because after 2 or 3 fork fulls I done anyway. Last weekend I really wanted a cheese steak. I got it, gave hubby half ,I ate about 4 forks of the meat and cheese no roll and I was full. Took 2 days to eat half of the sandwich w/o the roll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CCRNonherway 78 Posted August 24, 2013 Sleeved June 25th. Seems like so long ago! Down 51 lbs total and about 30 since surgery. Feeling good, but struggle with eating and getting all my liquids in. No dehydration or other problems at this time :-). Congrats to everyone on their progress so far! 2 kae21879 and Mocha-NJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
