9 month check-in



Recommended Posts

Hi December sleevers! Let's chime in on our progress. It's been 9 months and I'm down to some 14-16 dresses from a size 24. My weight loss has slowed, but I'm happy with my progress. Can't wait to get to onederland! I have 32 more pounds to get under 200#. Still getting a handle on Vitamins and I'm living with no regrets! Rocking my sleeve!

Hey Dec Sleevers! I have no regrets either! Yes, it's awesome being in one hundred land! I was so thrilled when I got there? You doing great will be there before you know it! I have reached my dr goal but not minds yet! Yes, the weight has slowed but I am okay with that because I am healthy and feeling great? It seems like on a daily base coworkers ask how much you Lost? I just smile and say, girl I don't even know. Just put my clothes on and if they don't fit, just buy more. That way, they will get the hint, stop asking me lol! Some are happy, some are haters! I care less I am happy and rocking my sleeve! Be blessed everyone! Oops speaking of Vitamins, I have to remember to take it. Hate taking vitamins. Thinking if doing the Gummy ones or flint stones. I saw that on the list, but I think gummy was not on there. Have anyone tried gummy vitamins.< /p>

I didn't really get an "approved" vite list but I'm only four weeks post-op and doing Gummy multivites, gummy Calcium with D3, gummy B12, and a prilosec (Omeprezole) capsule daily. I've lost 29 lbs so far and haven't had a problem with the vites.

Congrats to you all! I will hit 9 months on 09/24. I have so far lost 120 lbs. I am only 13lbs away from my final goal. I went from a size 22 to a size 8!!!

I have a ton of energy, can pretty much eat what I want. Best thing I've ever done in my life.

      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.
