October 2017 Sleever Update [emoji4]



Recommended Posts

Hello Sleevers!

I just wanted to say hello and check in I haven’t posted since I was sleeved on 10/10. My highest weight was 272, My day of surgery weight was 248 and my current weight is 221. it has been very hard for me to tolerate protien drinks but I do well with drinking Water and eating certain foods. I’m currently in stage 4 and will enter stage 5 on 12/10. I feel great, some days I feel like I look the same but we all have those moments when we are hard on ourselves. If you have any recommendations for flavorless protien please let me know :) currently my sleeve loves, flat out flat bread, sugar free peaches , watermelon, deli meat, fish and chicken. My sleeve does not like eggs , milk, artificial sweeteners, yogurt.

Peace, love, blessings!

Great job!

I was sleeved 10/20 and just starting on soft foods. Thanksgiving was definitely a head challenge. Not as much “fun”to eat. But I did allow myself one bite of my favorites, sweet potatoes and stuffing, after I ate turkey. Oh, and two bites of pumpkin pie, no crust. My willpower is still strong, so that certainty helped.

I cooked all day and ate too much! It was a very interesting day. I had socked away some cheat in my diet but I really didn’t enjoy eating the foods I had looked forward to. And my stomach was sore like it had worked. I guess I’m going to need to watch myself forever, because the obese me still tries to wake up from time to time. I’m ready to get back on a lean plan today! Good Luck Everyone!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
