Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?



Recommended Posts

I am finding the pounds are coming off much slower now. I am being very strict with my eating and working out for an hour every day. Now is the time I have to stay focused for the long haul.

Are you finding anything similar?

We are in los angeles now. But I sure do miss bama. Our son moved back last year. He hates it here. He says there's to many people here. I guess when you come from a town of 20 thousand to a town that has like 14 million, there are too many people here.????

Yes. I lose between 1-2 pounds per week. I just try to follow the diet and work out at least 3 times a week. How many calories is everyone eating per day?

I'm losing steadily. I'm down 66 overall and 37 since 10/6 surgery (2-3/week).

I think the biggest factor for me is eating high protein/low carb and 75 ounces of Water. Calories don't seem to matter much (659-1050).

I am getting in over 10,000 steps a day walking or riding my bike.

Oh yeah, 3 people have asked me if I have cancer!

I am getting around 500 to 650 a day. I work out everyday. I alternate between my elliptical and a workout video called the x factor. It is the same as ps90 or whatever it's called ???? I am down 31 pounds since oct. 9. I was in a stall for 2 weeks. I still need to work on my Water.

It is soooo hard to drink water. I need something with flavor. Does anyone know if drinking crystal light will count toward the water intake?

I'm told that adding crystal light is okay and it still counts.

I have tried to stay away from the scale once I hit 199. I keep my calories 600-650. I have no problems with drinking my Water though. I go for a two month check up tomorrow. So I will get an official weight then. Glad to see everyone is doing well.

@@marcia Happy to hear you are recovering well and on your way to better foods. It just keeps getting easier. :D

My surgeon told me to throw my scale away, but it is sooooo tempting to step on it every day. I stopped the everyday weighing though because my weight fluxuates and at times has stalled and it only disappoints me. I do get on once a week though ;) I do however see a difference in my cloths and have retired two sets of scrubs and am back into another set!

      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.
