    ALWAYS A FAILURE

    I’m in the same boat. I’m down a total of 106 pounds. Thirty of which I lost prior to the surgery and the six or so from surgery and I keep going back and forth with the same ten pounds. I need to lose at least another 100lbs to get into the ballpark of where I want to be weight wise. I work out and even started intermittent fasting and just keep gaining. Nothing is working anymore. I’ve cut carbs I keep portions small and yet gain and gain. I’m so disappointed in myself now I don’t know what to do.

    July Sleeve

    Well I’m going on week three of my plateau and I’m starting to lose hair again. Can’t lose weight but my hair oh yeah that’s definitely falling🙄. I guess I’ll just wait it out and probably get a hair cut if this hair loss keeps up.

    July Sleeve

    Well I’ve lost 65 pounds since my July sleeve. But now I’ve hit a plateau for about two weeks now. This is the most frustrating thing ever!!! I’ve gone back to cutting down my calories so I’m hoping this will pass soon.

    July Sleeve

    Well I’m eating ground beef, chicken, shrimp, eggs and some bacon. I’m so over the protein shakes that I stop drinking them on the weekends. I think I’ve hit my first plateau but then as soon as I type that weight will drop again. I’m down 41lbs so far. I was sleeved July 18th. How y’all doin?

    No I haven’t measured myself yet but they did measure me at the doctor’s office. I’m sure I’ve lost inches because my bra’s and clothes are all really loose now.

    I believe I hit my first plateau too. I’m down 28 pounds since starting this journey. I know you’re not supposed to weigh yourself everyday but I have since the surgery and the last few days I’ve held steady around the same weight. I’m sure it’ll change next week when I go back to work.

    July Sleeve

    I was sleeved on July 18th and yesterday I tried a bite of steak for the first time. I’m so burned out on liquids I need to move on to foods. I did start lifting weights and I think I hit my first plateau after losing 28 pounds.

    July surgery

    That’s what I did before my surgery too. Mani pedi and got my hair done. Bought everything I thought I might need and got stuff ready for the hospital.

    July surgery

    I’m super anxious about Wednesday. I’m so worried I’m going to wake up and they didn’t do the surgery. I keep looking over my labs and wondering why my numbers are the way they are and will everything be good enough. Anyways, it’s the final count down!!!

    Ten pounds is quiet a lot in two weeks. That’s really great!!

    July surgery

    I’m definitely in the “over think everything” club. It’s either the nurse in me or the I’ve had this surgery yanked away from me twice thing. Anyways trying to relax and wait for Wednesday to get here. I did eat bacon a time or two on this diet but that’s my only cheat. Which is probably why I’m so nervous. I’m going to try and work Tuesday which is the all clear liquids day. I already apologized to everyone I work with ahead of time if I become a hangry B.

    July Sleeve

    Almost go time!!! July 18th is my surgery date and here I am up as usual worrying. How do I know if my liver has shrunk enough for surgery?? I started the preop up diet on the fourth and I’m down roughly 12 pounds. I don’t have high cholesterol so I’m not sure. I don’t know I’m just worried cause it’s getting close and I’m worried it’s going to get taken away from me again.

    July Sleeve

    Well I’m day four into the preop diet along with a week prior of having the stomach flu. I weighed myself this morning and the first fifteen pounds are gone. Although the last several days I’ve have a headache. Has anybody else had this?

    I walk told walking is the best way to get rid of that pain. I’m not looking forward to that at all.

    Hi I'm in springboro. I'm at the beginning of my journey but it seems like my drs are doing everything back asswards. I have everything but a date and 9 months of dieting per insurance.
