May 20th sleevers how are y'all doing?



Recommended Posts

I am on solids now but can't tolerate salmon or red meat. I lost only 33 pounds so far. Is that bad? Any tips on fast food with the sleeve. My hubby is in the hospital because his sleeve leaked and I am always on the road. No time to cook or go to a sit down place. Tips?

I've only lost 21 pounds and I was sleeved on may 15th. You're doing fine. I sugfest taking Protein bars with you before u leave your house. No fast food is good for you. If you absolutely have to then I would say maybe chilli from wendys or a chicken burger (only meat) from wherever. But I highly reccomend taking Snacks with you when u r on the go.

You can still use non-solid foods too. The premade Protein Shakes don't have to be refrigerated so they are great for the road. You can also buy those chicken or tuna kits (with the mayo/relish), and eat those without the crackers included.

I was sleeved on the 24th and i am down 22lbs, and my friend that got sleeved same day is down 25 so you are doinh great. I try to carry stuff with me but a couple of times i have got the yougort parfais from mcdonalds. Which i can only eat half of and i dont use the granola they provide. Maybe at some point a grilled chicken salad will be an option if you have time.

I had my surgery on 5/28/13 and preop weight of 205. I'm 3 weeks out and I'm at 187 so I'm down 18. I've not lost a single pound this 3rd week! Anyone else not loose?

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
