Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?

I started thinking that our timing is perfect for the Holidays.

Our sleeves will be in the Honeymoon stage, so we can't overeat without pain, but we'll be able to eat anything, so we can fully enjoy the tastes of the Holiday!

I am doing the happy dance! Tomorrow if FINALLY my big day! Leave work today at noon and start my prep I have lost 67 pounds so far on this 9 month journey. So I think I am as healthy as I can be before surgery. I'll post when I get home (hopefully on Thanksgiving!) What a wonderful Surgiversary for me to have. I'll be Thankful for this new wonderful journey.

Have a wonderful holiday everyone!

Hi guys. I hope everyone has a great turkey day tomorrow. Sorry it's been a while. I have been pretty down on my self the last couple of weeks. Friday will be 7 week post op. I have been at a stall for about 2 weeks now. I saw my doctor last week. I am just so confused right now. Everyone I talk to or follow say to eat 3 times a day and get your Protein in. Don't forget the Water. I measure out all my food 2 oz. I still have not finished the whole 2 oz. Yet. But I only eat 2 times a day sometimes I only eat once a day. I try but I am not hungry. I will take 1 bite and feel totally full. My doctor said if your not hungry don't eat. Even if it is only one time a day. I work out everyday. I do know that I do not get all my water in ever. Does the water make that much of a difference? Don't get me wrong I am happy with the surgery and the 22.7 pounds I have lost, but it just doesn't seem like that's a good number considering what I am doing. I don't really have a NUT because I went through a 1800 # not a doctor office per say. I had no classes before. So if anyone has any helpful tid bits, I would love to hear them. Sorry this is so long.

I am sorry your down. I am in a stall too, since 11/12 I have not lost any. I went to my 6 week check up (1 week late) on Tuesday. She told me to get my Water up too (4 - 16.9 bottles) and to substitute one of my meals with a Protein Drink and then drink another Protein drink if I need to get my 80-85 grams of protein in. She wants to see 10lbs a month weight loss, well I do too! As long as I am not gaining, I am ok with my stall, but like you, I would like to see more forward progress.

Hang in there.

I try to drink a Protein Shake. But I get 2 sips down and I am done. I am really going to focus on my Water more. I am better today

I was able to get into an outfit I have not been in in about a year. So I know progress is happening.

Heading home from hospital. Feeling exhausted. Nauseated and so sore. Having hard time keeping water down. I know you all mentioned that will get better in a few days
