October Sleevers



Recommended Posts

My surgery was Oct. 30 and I've lost 32 lbs. I haven't run into any stalls yet but I also don't have a ton to lose so mine has been slow and steady over the last 2 months but I am really happy.

Mine has been 35 pounds. With a one month stall, today the scale dropped a pound so just maybe it's over? My surgery was Oct 27th

I was a band to sleeve conversion on October 14th .. I was already down 130lbs when my band slipped. I am now 6 months out .. And have no idea what I am doing . I measure every meal .. I count calories every day . I have not lost any weight since December .. I have gained 5.. Actually I fluctuate between 175..180 .. I worry constantly about stretching my sleeve .. I do not do any carbonation .. Some days I have what I feel is restriction other days I feel none . I just need to know there are other people out there like me. I get hungry I wasn't lucky enough to never feel hunger again . I miss my band but feel like it was more of a crutch than a tool. I feel more normal with the sleeve yet scared I will gain my weight back . Any help or encouragement would be welcome

@@Melissayw816, wow we have similarities. I've lost 59lbs, Goal is 140 but honestly, I may have to tweak the weight as time goes on. My goal is a size 8-regardless of the number on the scale.

I, too, have been struggling with a stall off & on for the last 1 1/2 month.

I'm going to try to work out four days a week and definitely reduce my carbs. Hopefully, I'll see the scale start moving again

SURGERY-363

TODAY-258

GOAL WEIGHT 245 OR 14% Body fat or less.

I am doing well working out getting my Protein and fluids in. The only thing is I can not eat ground beef and still working on the tempo at which I eat.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
