Low BMI sleevers... results?



Recommended Posts

Hi y'all, I had surgery in Mexico with a 34/35 BMI. 10 pounds down but my appetite seems to be just as ferocious mind you I can't eat any where as much as beforebc I'm three weeks out and I feel like I've stalled. Am I being impatient...

I had ESG on 9/25. As of today I’m down 26lbs! My BMI starting out was just about 31 and is now 27. SW 204 CW 178. Very happy with my results so far and would like to get down to 155 if possible 🙂

Hi there! This is my group. I am 34 years old, 5'10" and weight 220lbs, BMI 32. My surgery is this Thursday and I have never in my life been into my weight. I have always been "into the limits" of looking obese and I still can handle to look good as a curvy girl but that's not what I want for my entire life. I want to be fully healthy, have more energy to excersice, wear all these beautiful clothes I love and feel more confident. I know the surgery won't give me all that at once but I am also working with therapy. Sometimes I am afraid to be doing the right thing as I do not have health issues (yet) but reading all of you here makes ne feel much better. Thanks for don't let me feel alone on this journey and make me feel I am doing the right thing.

      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.
