Liberated Sleeve

3 years later when you are cleaning out your closet again and you find that one pair of pants you kept to always remind you of your accomplishments! So you step into them and pull them up and let them fall off!! LOL - just because you can! keep it up everyone - staying the course works!!

great job!

Great job!!

I don't like to do math unless absolutely necessary, but as you can see from my stats - alot more than 60% - Congrats on your surgery date!!

Congrats!!

Amen!! Congrats! I am one year out this month also!

I was on 3 meds for my diabetes. Insulin 130 units, Victoza and Metformin 1000mg x2 a day. I took no meds after I left the hospital for my diabetes. Sugars running around 110 fasting. Less than 60 days out of surgery my diabetic A1C was down to 5.7%. It was 6.7% before surgery with the 3 meds. Today 10 months out at 5.5% Sugars run anywhere from 78 - 92. A bonus: my high blood pressure is back into the normal ranges. I was on 2 meds before surgery. No meds since surgery for that one either. Good luck and God bless you!

I didn't start any protein shakes until Week 2. Maybe your stomach is just still too raw from surgery to handle it. All I drank was bullion, water, Fuze, etc for Week 1. Ate sugar free popsicles. But, I agree with everyone else, call your nutritionist or surgeon to find suggestions.

I take multivitamin Bariatric Fusion Chewable - 3 a day - tinniest amount of hair loss - heck I lost more hair when I was taking Naproxen daily.

Alot of people would be in heaven to lose 2lbs a week! Just learn how your body is going to lose it and embrace it! You didn't gain it all in one night or week or year so just do what you are suppose to do, eat right and listen to your surgeon!! Look at your TICKER!

9 1/2 months out. I had a little bit of everything, After 9 /2 months of learning how to eat again it was fabulous to not even want to over indulge. I love my "Tiny Tum"!
