APRIL SLEEVERS: How much weight did you lose?

[Get.Waisted 45]

For me; day 3 was good relaxed at the house and slept on and off. Day 4 was a relapse day because I coughed and when I coughed I felt a burning pain that hurt really bad. Today is day 5 and I'm doing amazing except for when the pain meds wear off. I actually walked a total of one hour today and did great. I am now wearing clothes that have been in the back of my closet for 3 years. And today I have been able to drink 64 oz of Fluid. Mostly Water mixed with low Cal Gatorade. And I sipped on lemonade the whole way through a 2.5 hour sports banquet for my daughter

Wow. You're wearing old clothes already? Have you weighed yourself yet?

Yep I am 227.

I'm officially wearing a size Xl shirt instead of 2xl. I started this journey at 262 and lost down to 240 with diet and excercise and down to 232 on pre op diet. Now I am at 227 on day 6 after surgery. I haven't been able to eat very much at all but this is getting better as my sleeve is healing

I can drink 3 to 4 oz of Fluid at a time but I can only eat a few bites of my liquid "food" before I feel full.

That's awesome. I have a feeling I'll do better with my liquids today it's getting easier. I can't tolerate the clear Protein Drinks which sucks b/c they were so expensive. Tomorrow I go to fill liquids so I'm hoping the Protein Shakes will be tolerated by my sleeve so I can start getting that in.

Fab read tanaproma!!! Your first week is pretty much identical to mine, apart from the high blood pressure part. I did really struggle with getting in all the liquids though. And to be honest haven't had much Protein at all! Have ordered a powder now so hopefully that will do the trick. Keep up the good work! Seems like you know exactly what you're doing. Well done to you!!!

I am one week from surgery and I'm down 9 pounds in that week.

My surgery was April 22nd, 2014. I had the sleeve done and also had my gallbladder removed. I am almost 1 week post op and have to say am feeling pretty good!!! My biggest complaint so far is that I still get tired throughout the day, but my nurse said that is to be expected. I am down around 14 lbs!!! Nope it isn't "easy", but is definitely worth it!! I can't wait to go back and see my surgeon this Thurs.

Best of luck to you all!!!
