Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?



Recommended Posts

Doing the happy dance. I am three weeks out... The very first week I lost close to 9 pounds. Then the last two weeks I stalled. Today I lost!!!! FINALLY. I am officially down 81.2 pounds! Officially 13 pounds from surgery. I am so happy :)

The first three weeks it melts off. Don't be discouraged by a stall. It happens but you will come out of it and lose a good amount. Seems the body needs time to readjust from time to time

Tomorrow I will be eleven weeks post op. And through these weeks I've gone from being hungry every two hours and worried that I was over eating to not having an appetite or hunger pains at all. Only when I start to feel weak and shaky do I realize, I need to eat something. The problem lies in nothing sounds appealing.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Yes that discribes me exactly. I have zero hunger now and I love it.

I have no hunger and little interest in food now.

I feel like a horrible mom because I can't even get motivated to cook for my teenage kids. And they still have teenage appetites. *sigh*

Edited to add: I literally feel like I am just eating to get my Protein goals. Most days once I hit my goal, my first thought is "thank god I don't have to eat any more today" It's a relief more than anything. It's a loooooong way from presurgery thinking. Lol

Making a sleeve friendly frittata for Christmas breakfast- package of frozen chopped spinach (thaw and squeeze out excess moisture) Spread in a 9x13 pan that was sprayed with Pam. Beat 6 eggs, add a 1/2 c of parmesan and 1/2 c of low fat cheddar. Pour over spinach. Add some pepper to the top. Cook in 325 oven for 15 minutes. Pull out of oven and immediately top with additional cheese.< /p>

Today I get to start eating cheese so it will make a wonderful Christmas Breakfast.

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and a fantastic Christmas!

      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
