It's been one year today since I had my sleeve done. My life has changed in every aspect.

My start weight was 333.1lbs

My weight this morning was 137.8lbs

That's a total loss of 195.3lbs!!

I've also lost a total of 95 inches...I'm a size 6 now...used to be a size 30.

I have accomplished this by being very focused and strict with my eating and exercise.

I eat very low carb, and always get in my Protein, Vitamins and Water every day.

For all of you just starting out, just know that anything is possible, and if you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything!!attachicon.gif ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1484247025.506927.jpgattachicon.gif ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1484247046.704277.jpg

You look amazing! How many carbs/protein/calories did you stick to? I'm 5 months post VSG and including my pre-op diet I've lost 73 lbs but I have about 65 left to go .. I want to reach my goal too by my 1 year in August! Your my inspiration and any tips are appreciated

Hi! I've never counted calories, but try not to eat too high fat foods. My carbs are below 20g, always have at least 70g of Protein each day.

I exercise a lot, around 5-6 days a week. I do a variety of exercises, which I find has helped. Hot yoga, spin classes, step classes, cardio machines...I find changing it up keeps me motivated.

But you have done so well also!! Congrats on your weight loss!!

Did you do cosmetic surgery for the extra skin. You do look really nice.

Sent from my SM-J700P using the BariatricPal App

No, unfortunately I can't afford plastic surgery. All I can say is everything between my upper thighs to my waist is a hot mess of hanging skin. It does bother me, but there's nothing I can do about it.

But that's what good undergarments are for!

I just have to say I hope my results are as great as yours are, I have three more classes and I will be on top of my insurance like glue to keep them moving me along. I still can't get over how nice you look, it always seems like I'll never get there. But I'm damn sure gonna try !

Thank you. I've never counted calories, but eat less than 20g of carbs per day, and at least 70g of Protein and drink around 100oz of Water.

I eat very boring actually, a lot of chicken and fish.

I have a Protein shake every morning, 4oz of Protein at lunch and supper, then another form of protein in the evening, usually a Protein Bar. I don't do any other snacking.

You'll get there!! Trust me, when I was in your shoes before I had surgery, and saw people's before and after pics, I never dreamed I would ever get to this weight...I didn't even think it was possible.

      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.
