SEPTEMBER 2014 POST-OP SLEEVERS CHECKING IN!



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have been on here in awhile but I was sleeved on September 23rd and I'm done 60lbs. I'm so excited about my new body and the love of exercising. I have about 35 lbs to go until I'm under 200.

Hey Everyone! I was sleeved September 11th and down 75lbs. I have hit a stall the past three weeks and have even gained two lbs. in the past week. Not sure what's going on but I hope I can't get it back together and keep up the weight lose. I still have about 100lbs to lose.

Hi there! My husband and I were sleeved on the 11th also. We see our surgeon for our 6 month follow up next Friday. My husband has reached goal, but I've got about 85 to go.

He must be so excited! I am glad for my loss but now that I am stalling it's kind of scaring me. I don't see my surgeon again until the middle of April but when I saw him in the middle of January he was impressed with my weight loss. He says with gastric sleeve I should only be losing 8-10 lbs a month.

He is, lol. He started at 253 and is down to 163, which is in the "normal" bmi range for his height. I started at 320 and am aiming for 140. I'm at 224 right now, so I've lost 96 total. However, I've really slowed down since about the beginning of January. Some weeks I don't lose anything, then I'll lose a pound or maybe two, then I'll go a couple more without losing. I figure as long as I stick to plan, I'll get there eventually!

It's been a while since I've posted here. I like reading how everyone is doing. I've lost 70 pds so far I think I had a little bit of a stall but since I've only been weight at the Drs. office I still had a weight lose. Went 2 months with out being weighted and still just lost 10 pds when I was losing about 10 pds a month. I'm still happy with that. I have 51 pds to go. I been walking after work and at lunch need to get to the gym more I know that will help. Glad the weather is warming up though we didn't have much of a winter I live in Reno, NV I'm not a cold weather person. I've been glad to getting into clothes that I've had for a long time and give away the ones that are to big for me now. Great job everyone for loosing the weight.

Sleeved 9/18, down 74.4 lbs. as of today, just a little under 1lb from what was my personal targeted 6 mth goal. My f/u is on the 20th and I'm hoping to hit it by then. I still have a long way to go, but I'm moving in the right direction.

Sleeved September 18th and down 70lb since surgery and 98lb over all. Have also had slower weight loss recently - only lost about 6lb over the past month. However, I'm getting a lot more exercise now and feel so much better so I'm happy. Will have my 6 month check up on Friday and hope the hospital is happy too.

      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.
