Looking for those who had sleeve in August 2015



Recommended Posts

I'm down 41 since my surgery on 8/11. It doesn't feel like enough but I haven't been exercising the way I should. I know I could do so much better if I just got myself out there and walked. I can do a half mile now without stopping and can do a mile with a break during. I just need to do it.

The eating is going pretty well, following my routine and getting plenty of Protein and fluids. Taking my Vitamins and other supplements also. That's a chore but I get it done. It's just the exercise I dread.

At my HW I was 324 lbs. The day is started by 2 week post op diet, I weighed 316 lbs. Date of surgery I weighed 303 lbs. Today I weigh 247 lbs. It has been a great ride so far and I am enjoying my new sleeved life. I have for a total lost 77 lbs so far. If I were to count from my surgery date I have lost 56 lbs. Not too shabby. Good luck and continued to success to all.

I was sleeved on 8/18. I am feeling great. I am down 45lbs.

I don't exercise as much as I should but I have RA and some days are harder than others.

I've had several stalls and do my best to try and embrace them.

I am very thankful for this site and to have others that are going through the same experiences and to have you all to share with.

I got two weight loss compliments today at work. Not very good at admitting that I've lost much weight to people. I keep downplaying it. Anyone else doing this?

Yep, I am same way. Its weird, now that it is happening and a lot of people are talking about me, the attention is welcomed but it feels kind of unsettling.

Do they know you had the surgery? I have not told anyone....

I told my work friends and my boss but not other people I see everyday who I don't talk to about personal life. I never talked about my weight gain so why would I talk about my weight loss. It's nice that it's noticeable but I don't want to talk about it really.

I was sleeved on 8/24 and I am down 63 pounds! I am 17 pounds away from being below 100 and it seems like the hardest 17 haha. But I can deff eat more but I'm always thinking about what to eat and not eating just anything. Surgery was the best decision I have ever made!!!

Sleeved on the 20th and I'm down 60 lbs. I still have another 40ish to go but I'm over half way there. I'm wearing a size large down from a 22/24. Best thing of the whole experience? My BP is under control for the first time in ten years -without meds!

I am at the same weight for 3 weeks, not one pound more. I haven't gone to the gym and have been eating a little bad so its totally my fault. We have to kick it up people and start exercising more!!!!! :-)

I was sleeved on 8/14 and have lost 46 lbs. Very slow now. I've only lost 5 lbs since November 11th and nothing in the past 10 days. I am doing spin class 3 - 4 days a week. Maybe I'm building muscle. Ha ha ha. Still not getting Protein and Water in like I should.

      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.
