Esmeralda75 26 Posted August 23, 2013 I was sleeved on 7/31 and and a little over 3 week out, I eat eggs, Beans, cottage cheese, cheese sticks, Jello, apple sauce and Protein drinks, I am starting to get bored and I wanted to get ideas from people who were sleeve the same time as me. What are u all eating at this point??! I am also a slow looser I started my journey at 204 and I am at 192 currently, I really thought this process would of been faster but it's ok I am learning to be patient and not give up, I am a band to sleeve patient and know the weight isn't going to melt off.

marfar7 1,533 Posted August 24, 2013 I'm 5 1/2 weeks out and on soft foods (after a long 4 weeks of liquids). I eat alot of chili, mashed potatoes, eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, turkey deli meat, and cottage cheese. I'm also bored. I want a big (make that little!) juicy steak, a salad, grilled chicken, and bread. I know, I don't want much, right? LOL You're doing great. I've lost 17 lbs, gaining and losing the same 1 lb over the past week. I started at 174 on july 16th so I know it'll come off lsower than say someone who started at 250 (which was my orginial weight when banded 4 yrs ago). I had the same dr also. 3 hrs away. Thats sucks but I really luv my dr so it's fine. The dr in my town doesn't take my insurance (Medicare, they only cover Centers of Excellence). Good luck to you. Expand ur eating so ur not so bored. I luv me some chili with a little melted sharp cheddar on top! Dip some melba toast in it...yummo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marfar7 1,533 Posted August 27, 2013 What was you start weight with sleeve?? With my band I went from 260 to 155 being my lowest. My start weight with the sleeve was 174 the day before surgery. With my band, I went from 248 to 144 the my band slipped. I gained 30 lbs back over a year. Now I've lost 18 lbs putting me at 156. only 26 lbs to go. I've heard the last 20 lbs r the hardest. not looking forward to it! Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
