Looking for those who had sleeve in August 2015



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on 8/14. I haven't lost any weight in over 2 weeks. I've been eating like I should. I'm getting really nervous.

I had mine on 14th as well and I was stuck these past two weeks. The scale finally moved this morning. Hang in there!

I just had my 2 moth post op visit- and I mentioned I am at a 21/2 week stall. They said it is normal, after your body looses so much in a short timeframe. A stall can last up to 4 weeks, before they get worried.

They also said if you are working out everyday to not worry about counting calories, asong as you are flowing the dr food plan.

Here is Hoping the scale moves soon!!!

Hi. Surgery on 8/31 and I am down 22lbs. Eating regular food with Protein being top priority. Barely eating 4oz of food at any meal, so I am supplementing with Protein Shakes.< /p>

Walking and stationary bike 45 - 60 minutes at least 5 days/week. Last week I worked out all 7 days.

Breakfast - 20 oz coffee with protein (46 oz)

Mid morning snack - 1/2 boiled egg

lunch - 16 oz Protein Shake with almond milk (46 oz protein)

dinner - 10 seedless grapes, one grilled chicken tender

Holy crap 72 pounds. Amazing. I had surgery August 24. Been in emergency twice with dehydration. Cant get fluids or Protein in. Miserable and weak. I'm down 35 pounds but when I get terrible burning in my sternum and my face looks 10 years older. No energy to work out yet. Frustrated yet still happy I did this.....

My surgery was on 8-25-15. I'm down 20 pounds from surgery date. January I weighed 245, surgeon visit 241, day of surgery 210,and today 190!! I'm 5'2. I can eat 3-4 oz at a time, depending on what it is. Just starting to get some energy back. I have a Tony Little Gazelle and use that for cardio. Just finished 40 minutes. I'm so happy that I've made this change in my life!! Happy losing to all!!

Please don't be nervous, I have been following a few different sleevers and they all said to expect a stall at week 6 to 12. I've been fluctuating between .5 to one lb for a week now and I'm week 7, I think.

      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
