6 months out, down 96lbs, 75 since surgery March 21.

My doctor doesn't recommend the lap bad with a BMI of over 35, but says at a BMI of 54 i was a good canidate for either the sleeve or the by pass. I didn't want a bypass because of the malabsorbstion issues. at 6months I am down from 407 to 311, and couldn't be happier about my choice.

I like Muscle Milk, I think the best one is Cake batter, but i also like banana creme and vanilla creme. The cake and banana i can only find at GNC and The Vitamin store.

If you keep up with the right eating and drinking and exercise when you can your excess weight is a gonner. It's a matter of science and fact.
Think of your yourself as the landlord, the fat as bums that want to stay in your house without contributing anything but trouble. You've put up with them for quite a while but now you've served them their sleeve eviction notice. Being bums, they don't want to leave. They take their time. But go they will, it is their destiny and your triumph.
Give your body time, be good to yourself. Be happy, you are going in the right direction.

I would stop by the cafteria when they are slow, if you explain your dietary needs they should be able to tell you what is available. That and they make food in the back for all kinds of special diets. they may be able to offer something that you don't see.

I started at 407, lost 21lbs before surgery, and on surgery day was 386. I will be 6 months on the 21 September and i am at 314 now. I am really hoping to lose 7lbs to take me over to 100. and then i can't wait to get to 299!! Just 15lbs away, so exciting

I liked it, but i was full after just a few bites, and it is 1 of those things i didn't want as left overs. and i just remembered it wasn't KFC it was Boston Market. And so far the only thing i have found that doesn't agree with me is Milk.

I tried a KFC 1 at about 3 or 4 months out i think. I was only able to eat 3 bites then passed it over to the hubby. I am 6 months out and planning on making 1 at home once it gets a little bit cooler.

She meant:
Fourth - I'm going to buy myself a set.

I am using the cute kids cup as well.
this one and my kids is fighting who will drink from which one

6 month out, i don't miss anything. I can still eat everything i did before just much less. If i want somethin i have a small bit and am satasified now.

I'm on day 12 and nothing but liquid so far. Also, NEVER trust a fart.< /p>

My doc said when ever i was ready. We tried at about a week out but it was just to painful. Tried again at 2 weeks and I was fine, still a little tender, but i just didn't want to wait any longer. And sex was always good but now after losing 96lbs It is GREAT!!

I like the muscle milk, but ony the cake batter and strawberries and creme. and i can't do any of the powders only the premixed.

Okay, this may not be a big NSV, but it was to me. I have never worn less than a size 22 or 24 in LB jeans, even when I lost weight on my own. But, today I stopped in LB to buy some Spanx and said let me try on some jeans. My surgery was 2 weeks ago today and I could wear a size 20 jeans! Woohoo! I don't know how much I've lost because I decided not to weigh until I go to the doctor on Wed., but I'm pretty happy with that little victory! Yay me...

I am 2 1/2 weeks short of 6 months, i go in for my 6month check up tomorrow and I am 89lbs down, I really hope my doctor is as happy with that number as i am. But i do just want those 11lbs to go to put me at 100 lbs and them 8 more pounds to put me at 299. I am just so happy with the weight i am losing.

Absolutely! I love them and have been using them since January. I dont drink them as much as I did at first since I am eating regularly now but they are convenient to take along and dont need to be refrigerated ( even tho they are better cold) I get them at costco, $30 for a 24 pack, way cheaper than anywhere else.

BTW - sex gets better and better, I'm not sure if it's because you just feel better about yourself or what.....but it's never been better!

My doctor did tell me at least 75 Protein and I'm finally getting close to that. I do try to track on myfitnesspal, i get it done at least 5 days a week. And i am getting about 45 to 50oz Water a day. Today was justthe most calories i have had since surgery and it kinda freaked me out a little.

My Bmi was 55.3 when i started. I was sleeved March 21, so about 4.5 months out and am down to 325lbs with a bmi of 44 (im 6ft tall). My doctor agreed with my first goal of getting down to 199 that would give me a bmi of 27 which is still considered overweight, but once i get there i can decide how much further i want to go. But as of right now i would be happy as overweight as opposed to morbidly obese.

I love my sleeve, no regrets. I had a great doctor, monthly support groups and lots of family and friends that fully supported my decision.
