Weight before surgery 270.2

Surgery date 08/1/2012

Weight day of surgery 254.5

Current weight 233.6

Goal weight by 10/31= 213

Last week I was 231

Today I weighed 224.4 I'm so excited and happy to see the scale moving.

Well I'm 32 5'2 and my highest weight was 270.2 on July 2nd 2012. I had surgery on Aug 1st weighed 254.5. Today I'm 229.

It hasn't been easy or as fast as it fantasized it would be. It takes a lot of hard work. I had thoughts like yours what if it doesn't work for me. But the truth is, I will work if you work it. I have to make sure I get my Protein, Water and exercise in every day. It's just a way of life now I depend on it like I do air, shelter and love.

I know it's nerve wreaking but it will be here and gone soon enough. Then you'll have a new set of problems. Like an i a slow loser?

I'm 6 1/2 weeks out and hit a stall again.

Today I weighed 232.4

:-(

I'm only weighing in once a week so this Wednesday I was 231.

I'm doing the 12 week lean body program on bodybuilding.com. It's free!!!!!

I want to walk el camino in Spain.

My doctor said when I felt comfortable. It was at 10 days because I was scared to try sooner.

I'm only 6 weeks post op and I really miss all of my Mexican food.< /p>

I have kaiser and my surgery was with dr. Casillas in West los angeles. It's a long process but we'll worth the wait because as long as your pcp recommends you, you're approved for the surgery.

Hi there I'm also in the area. I was sleeved on Aug 1st. Let know if you have any questions.

Hope so' date=' this thread is meant to enable and motivate those who WANT the change and a higher success rate[/quote']

Hello Jimmy, I'm hoping you can help me. I was sleeved on 8/1. I'm ready to start weight lifting. I checked out bodybuilding.com and I'm having a hard time choosing a plan to follow. I'm 5'2 233 I have large arms (bat wings) and big hips and thighs. I don't know if I should start with a fat loss program or building muscle program. Can you suggest what would be the better one.

Wow great job. Im so excited for you. Hope to see you soon.

No leak test done after surgery. I didn't know to ask if one was done surgery. Look up what the leak symptoms are if you are worried.

At this point you won't feel full yet. Try to serve yourself 4-6 oz of your puree.

Child birth was harder

Congrats lisa thanks for everything you do.

10 days and every night since. Today is day 14

I had surgery on Aug 1st, and I'm drinking more Water than anything I'm so bored with the same stuff.

My doctor required 15 in about 3 weeks I had only lost 11.4 pounds, I was so nervous going to my preop appointment, I thought for sure he is going to cancel. He was very pleased to see that I gave it my best effort. Do the best you can. Go to a gym or do an exercise video something I was working out 2-3 hours a day. You can do this!!!!

I was required to lose 15 pounds, and one day of pure liquids the night before surgery.

It's normal to be nervous, it means you know what you are getting into. I'm 8 days post op, just getting done with the healing process.

The worst part was the gas in my chest that was gone within 12 hours of surgery, I slept most of the time.

You will be fine.

I'm 7 days post op and besides the Isopure my unflavored Unjury Protein is an essential part of my diet. I add it to my oatmeal, Jello, pudding, chicken broth and cream Soups. It doesn't taste any different, but it makes the jello cloudy but I feel better knowing I'm getting that extra protein in. I'm getting ready to order a 2nd can.
