6/27 buddies?

[charley27 164]

How are you all doing?? We're now 4 weeks out! Where did time go? I had a 6 day "stall" and I'm still only at .5 less than I was during the stall. I'm feeling like I'm more able to eat normal foods, which is a concern because I want to be restricted. I didn't take any time off work, so maybe I'm not healing well? Idk. Discouraged and not feeling great a it the surgery. I mean, 20 pounds loss is cool and all, but I feel like I'm going to be back to eating crap since it's not restricting. I'm on soft foods until Thursday at my one month appointment.

How are all of you 6/27 buddies doing? How much lost? What are you eating?

I was doing ok so far until today having issues with liquids . I was off of work for 3 weeks. been back to work since last monday, i think it's tuff since my energy gets drained real fast , haven't been able to start my gym back cause of lack of energy. I had my first real non pureed chicken last night it was soo good was chicken kebab but was able to only get have a cube in, scale finally moved down 3 pounds this morning so I'm happy about that. Got my 1st post op appointment with MD on August 2nd. hopefully will be very close to hitting the Onederland :-) Still not able to drink Water (makes me want to puke) been drinking G2 gatorade ever since but now I feel that thing is too sugary when I drink it. Tonight's dinner is sliced Low fat turkey with laughing cow spread on it and rolled up.

Also replaced my daily binging habit (would wonder which takeout i'd have today either for lunch or dinner) now it's which mall should I go to and just buy stuff. not a lot of stuff but still.

Laughing cow and turkey sounds awesome!

Ive lost 39 lbs since the 27th! I've staled to about 2 lbs a day now... I am still happy Ive lost a total of 79 lbs since I started so I cannot complain...It is just falling off...I am not going to say it has been easy...I cheated twice once today...I ate half a slice of pizza and 3 french fries....I also cheated a couple days ago and had mashed potatoes...I am working out a lot so I think that is helping I have a personal trainer who comes to my house 3 times a week and I walk for 40 mins a day...around parks and my community....I do crave all old foods and drinks but I stick with only water...when I cheated the food just tasted bad to me....My whole taste buds have changed since surgery...I get dizzy when I get up all the time and I am always thirsty I hate that.

I can't believe it's been four months already! I had a stale around week 3 but I'm not back to losing at a good pace. I think so anyways I'm back to more normal food but not eating much of it. Still having a hard time getting my Protein in. But here are my stats!

Highest weight : 315

Surgery weight : 293

Current weight : 265

@@charley27 I'm pre-op but wanted to let you know you will have more restriction once you move to more sense Proteins. Get all your Protein and Water - the weight will come off.

Hey girl! I've lost 23 and I had surgery of the 30th. I'm losing more inches than pounds; may be that's the case for you.

I'm losing inches too, but I'm not sure I trust the tape measure because I could be measuring wrong

24 lbs down, I'm eating soft foods starting this weekend. I've felt restriction as soon as I started eating flaked fish. My sleeve holds onto dense Protein. I made an omelet with 1 egg,smoked salmon. I could eat half of it. But I can eat yogurt 1/2 cup like a boss.

Hi guys. I'm new to this forum and had my sleeve done on the 28th June so I figured this post was a good place to start!

I was in sooooo much pain for the first few weeks after the surgery but it's pretty much all gone now. I moved through the liquids, pureed etc stages a bit faster than I was told to and now I can eat just about anything. I'm trying to limit my meals to about 200 calories, and I've not felt full at all since the surgery. I don't want to push the boundaries but I kind of feel like my new pouch can hold more than I expected.

Are you all counting your calories? I'm doing between about 700-1000 each day and I've been in a stall for almost 2 weeks. It's so frustrating!
