I am going through the same thing... my family doesn't know that I'm going to have the gastric sleeve because they are very judgmental so I am going through this journey alone. I have a few friends that had the procedure done so they are the only ones that know about it. I'd say, continue to get support from the ppl here or create a YouTube page about your journey....you'd be surprised of how much support you'll get from others!

I am 3 1/2 months out. I will lose weight 1 week and then stall for 7-10 days. I've been doing this since week 2. The scale continues to go down, sometimes very slowly, so I'm happy. It's just part of the process.

Spinich and watercress is better than lettuce. Nutrition should come before fancing a salad in my humble opinion. At 18 months I am having salads, however after getting my Protein in, I can only manage a few mouthfulls. Maybe the day will come when I can have just a mini salad as a snack, with some nuts.

I'm doing pretty good.

So that's great you lost a lot quick and your doing well. The only tips I have is to stick with the diet they give you once you stray it can be difficult to get back on for some so keep your goal in mind. High Protein low carbs

I have the same problem, my height is 5'4, but some records show 5'5, my surgeon's office said it shouldn't be an issue.

Omg! I was sleeved on the same day as you and I just lost 30lbs. I want to loose around 45lbs more but I see I don't loose so fast anymore. To be honest, I don't train much but I take care of my food. To eat good quality and protein but still. I'm starting to get worried. :/

I have a 10 day pre-op & 2 day liquid only instructions. I went to town my last day before pre-op!!! Hot dogs, chips & queso for lunch, chocolate chip cookies (freshly baked!) dipped in milk as a snack. Dinner was white rice & ribeye steak. Dessert was a pint of ice cream. That all sounds SOOOOOO gross now but I don't regret it. 'Twas a great last meal day! I cheated day 5 of pre-op. My kids (5&7) wanted to go to McDonalds. I impulsively got myself a meal for dinner. I emotionally felt terrible after, though my body felt fine. I cheated myself! But every other moment I have been fully disciplined. Not one snack outside of my 2 protein shakes & 4 oz protein w veggies for dinner. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

This was published the day of my surgery. I found it incredibly accurate and informative. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/27/health/bariatric-surgery.html?smprod=nytcore-ipad&smid=nytcore-ipad-share Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
