How are all the March 2015 sleevers doing?



Recommended Posts

The 180's were really hard for me to get out of (literally stayed there for 2 months)! For some reason, I'm blowing thorough the 170's. We will see how the 160's go:)

Sleeved on March 9th. Down 99.4 pounds including my pre-op loss. Very happy overall.

Just dealing with hair loss/thinning and sagging skin now. Would love to lose 20 pounds more but at a 3 month stall right now.

Hair loss has slowed...thankfully!

@@agalindo17 Looking good!

I am struggling BIG TIME with sugar consumption and overall healthy eating. I've lost 104 so far, but if I don't get a handle on this now, I see bad things in my future.

The vets on the board that say they can't have more than a bite or two of stuff -- I am not having this issue. Of course if I eat GOOD Protein I fill up quickly. I've learned that I can shovel bad carbs in like I have a normal sized stomach.

Just venting and looking for guidance from my fellow March Sleevers!

Thanks and like agalindo17 said, Happy New Year and Happy New You!

It truly becomes a choice.. Every bite.. Every meal.. Do you want to be healthy or do you want to regain. I work out a lot.. But I still have to watch everything I eat

Happy New Year everyone!

I start meeting with a eating disorder counselor next week. Hoping also getting into more of a workout schedule (currently just do a 30 min brisk walk / day) will also help. Once I get Premier Protein stocked up again I want to do the 5 day pouch test. Thanks for your advice!!!!

      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.
