Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Was sleeved 2/28. Starting weight was 240lb. Current weight 187. My life has changed so much! This hasn't been easy and I'm still getting used to my sleeve, but I feel so much stronger and healthier. I look years younger and feel so much more comfortable in my skin. The best decision I've ever made. Here is my progress so far

You look amazing! What are you eating? It's working. I started at 246 and am only down to 207. I feel great and think in doing well with the right foods. It's just sooo slow!

So I took my 12 week pictures tonight. I see lots of difference between the night before and now... but not a lot in the last 4 weeks.

SJ Great job!

Well all I don't get on here as much. I think because I've been putting other things first being sleeved isn't at the forefront of my mind. It needs to be. I have to say I appreciate everyone's honesty. Didn't really want to share how much I'm struggling because I felt alone. Not in a mean way but it's nice to hear others are in the same boat. Connecting with all of you needs to be a priority. It really helps keep me focused.

I struggle. Making the right choices is hard, but I do it for the most part. Every now and then I will slip up, but then I get frustrated that my weight is stuck so I get right back on track. Hang in there. You got this

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I tried really hard to keep myself busy today. Did some house cleaning. It's worked to keep my from munching.

I think I've hit a a stall...just about 3 months out. Exercising, eating my Protein and getting most of my Water. Anyone else experience this? I've been going up and down the same 1lb for about 2 weeks now.

So I posted earlier from highest weight I'm down 58.2 lbs. I can't believe I'm this close to 60 lbs gone!

Congratulations! You are doing great

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
