Has anyone seen a difference in your relationship for the negative after surgery? For me I dnt feel like the same person anymore.. but feel selfish for it.

Well I can eat just about whatever I want except bread is hard to eat. But I try to get a shake or two in a day and then 4 more small meals of Protein. This week im getting back on track by going back to shakes for a week and reintroducing food. My only tip since your not that far out is to stay away from any foods that were a problem before...i.e soda was mine and if I want to I can drink it with no problem and I dont get sick from sugar. Good luck on your journey your gonna relearn you all over

Some before pics Current pics: Sw: 338 Cw: 214 Still need to lose 50 more so ive started Protein shakes for this week and getting back in the gym (was off track)... The nerve pain I experienced has gone away! And the strength in my legs is back! I don't regret my decision to have gastric sleeve at all

No he wants to but doesnt meet the req of 100 pds overweight.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I think the most important thing for me is to remember how I got to the decision of doing the surgery and working my best at it everyday to never be that person again!

What is your diet like for a day?..

This is after (nearly 6 months) down 110 pds

So, I have muscle wasting so about a month ago I started physical therapy am getting in all of my vitamins and protein in and I notice my legs are starting to get stronger. But two weeks ago my feet started tingling/burning and now they wake me up every night. So now I have been referred to a neurologist and she believes I have peripheal neuropathy which I hope can be cured. I just feel alone in this and the pain of standing on my feet for 8 hours is unbearable.... I hope noone has to go through this.

The muscle wasting came about when I wasnt taking in enough Protein because I got sick. But i changed all that and then this happened.

Thank you so much everyone!!

My friend and I went out for her birthday I bought a size 16 dress down from a size 28 when i started this journey! And i broke my stall and am down 100 Me before surgery

So I posted before because I am going through physical therapy to rebuild the muscle in my legs. And my nut has me on 3 protein shakes and 3 small meals of 2oz of protein at each. But I have been gaining since I started. I have been diligent on my protein but Im worried im not going to lose weight again. I also started and quit today drinking diet soda. I tried it two weeks ago and when i didnt get sick or uncomfortable I kept at it. Has anyone had feelings of falling off the wagon 5 mths out. Any encouragement wld be greatly appreciated.

Welp, I was sleeved feb 13th and all together with preop diet ive lost 97lbs. However, I wasnt getting enough protein so I am experiencing the effects of muscle wasting and going to physical therapy. I have been getting 60-100grams of Protein now and cannot wait until I have the strength back in my legs. I am in a size 18/20 down from a 28 thats exciting, but ill really enjoy my sleee when im fixed 100%

So has anyone experienced loss of strength in leg/thigh muscles. Ive been having problems walking up stairs an getting off of seats. I know i need to start strength training but this scared me.

Unfortunately its all through the day I have to physically find ways to push myself up or hold onto railings

Hopefully today I will find out what is wrong. I go for an endoscopy in an hour. They think that I have a stricture. Ill take any reason as long as the the gag reflex, nausea and vomitting ends. I was doing good until 3 weeks ago... No wonder my weight was falling off. Oh well ill still take my 85 pds gone lol

Thats awesome!!
