Recommended Posts

I have a few questions for all the June sleevers:

1. What all are you eating now?

2. How many calories are you eating?

3. Are you still drinking Protein shakes?

4. What are your stats right now? I know everyone is different, but just curious where everyone is on their journey!

5. Any other info you want to share. :D

Hi!

My surgery was June 10th. Here you go....

1. I try pretty much whatever I want but usually stick to chicken, turkey, tuna, cheese. I actually just tried beef today (at my parents and my dad made roast beef). No problems with it.

2. My calorie intake is between 500-800/day. Typically average a little over 600.

3. Protein shakes no. I do usually have a Protein Bar for Breakfast though.

4. Down 53.2lbs - just over halfway to my goal.

5. Losing a TON of hair. Started right at 3 months out. Hasn't slowed down yet but hopefully soon!

1. Tolerating anything I try but still following the rules.. Low carb/ high Protein. I've stayed away from starchy carbs but do eat fruit/veggies/meat/dairy. Eating 2-4 oz per sitting, depending on what I'm eating.

2. I don't count calories (per Dr. request)

3. I had stopped but started again after the hair loss started. Figured the extra protein couldn't hurt.

4. Surgery was on 6/11- - 71 lbs lost. :)

5. Love this sleeve. Down from size 22/24 to 14/16. Feeling great!

I was sleeved June 6.

1. I am eating yogurt, cottage cheese, pimento cheese, chicken, fish, etc. I have tried pretty much everything now except for Pasta, bread, potatoes, and rice. (I'm going to avoid those as long as possible.)

2. I usually eat somewhere between 800-1000 calories per day.

3. I will have a Protein shake every couple of weeks when I need Breakfast on the go.

4. I've lost 73.8 pounds, but 30 of that was pre-op.

5. I've never gotten sick or had any problems with anything I've tried. I have several glasses of wine or vodka and Crystal Light about twice a week. I always journal the alcohol in MFP, but I know that's why I'm losing more slowly than others; however, I was miserable during the six weeks that I couldn't have a drink. I live in New Orleans, and drinking is a large part of my social life. I haven't had the hair loss issue yet, at least not that I have noticed. I swim 2-3 times a week and go to a strength yoga class 2-3 times a week.

I am eating any Protein and veggies that I want. I stay away from carbs.

I am eating about 800 calories a day.

Yes, I still drink Protein Shakes daily. I have to be at work my 7:00a.m. and it is the easiest thing to do.

I have lost 54 pounds and my surgery date was June 7th.

Can't wait to lose the next 50 pounds! :)

      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.
