November sleevers here



Recommended Posts

I have found that when I stall I just have to keep on trucking and not let the number on the scale get to me. Stress can make you out on weight, so just stay calm. The weight loss will always continue as long as you keep doing what you are supposed to do. Keep up the great work everyone! I love this group!

Hit another stall, sigh

I think I just got out of mine. I had four weeks of not losing a single pound and this week i'm at almost 5lb lost. I don't normally check every day, but this week I have been to check to make sure it's real! Keep going!

Since month 2 I stall for 10-14 days, then lose 5 lbs a week then stall another 10-14 days. This cycle has been my new normal. This month I haven't lost anything since 2/2 yet this week I just lost 4 lbs. Even with hitting my Water and Protein goals, and exercising. I guess this is how my body is adjusting. Everyone is different, the worst we could do is compare our journey to someone else or be hard on ourselves because we didn't lose as much as someone else. Keep up the great work Novemeber sleevers!

We don't really talk about calories much but are you supposed to be consuming a certain number of calories? I had my 3 Month post-op meeting with my surgeon last week and he reminded me that I'm supposed to be consuming 1200 calories or less everyday.

Also happy to report that I'm officially down 63 pounds as of today!

I am 3 months out and headed to my follow up appointment currently. I am barely able to make 600 a day plus my liquid intake. I hope that okay. Congratulations on the 63 lbs !!!

Finally came off a 2 week stall, I was 199 now 194. No rhyme or reason to my stalls at all. I don't weigh myself at home, I only trust the scales at the physicians offices.

So I had my 3 month visit today and am officially down 70 lbs . My surgeon seemed kind of shocked. Did anyone else’s surgeon/nutritionist seem surprised by your weight loss?




Yes but surprised at how slowly I'm losing

I was 230 my surgery day which was 11/09/17. So it’s been 3 in a half months technically and I now weigh 160. But I also lead a very active life. Today I took 22 thousand steps and I go swimming 3 times a week only for 30 minutes. So I’m going to have blood work done this week because my surgeon just wants to be sure I don’t have an deficiencies since the surgery with my rapid weight loss.

      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.
