new to the site and new to my sleeve



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

As the title says I am new to the site and just recently had the sleeve done. I think I'm doing fairly well I'm past my first two weeks of Fluid and am now starting pureed foods. On the date I started the presurgical diet I weighed 363 after surgery and two weeks I now weigh 337. Not too bad. Looking forward to being able to update as I've gained confidence reading all your stories. Oh and ya, split up with my bf a month before this...never a better time to start!

Congrats. Being excited and nervous is natural but you'll soon see the nervousness disappear as you start to loose weight. It's a great feeling.

Good luck...and remember lots of liquid and Protein ( as awful as it might taste - although its still not as bad as Buckleys cough syrup...yuck!

Lol I know exactly what you mean. I tended to ignore the actuality of it as I was going through the year of hoops....it wasn't until I was on the surgery table when I though....hmmm what am I doing lol.

But for me I had to go through with it. 30 years of failed diets was enough for me.

Hang in there everything will be ok. I was afraid at the beginning. I had my sleeve'2 months ago its hard at first but once you see the weight going Dow you will feel much better. Always take your Protein Shakes. I was 260 I'm down to 203. Looking forward to 199. Lol

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