139 lbs, 5'7 (slouching) is the current number.
188 was at surgery. Barely qualified. Ate like a pig the last few weeks to make sure I made weight.
I have not worked out yet. Just yard work and walking.
First three months after surgery I over ate all the time. It was hard to break that habit. Was punished a lot by sleeve. It is just now
that I am use to eating just a little, and don't try to stuff more in. Weight is really falling off the last few weeks because of this. Have had two big stalls, about two weeks each time, but did not sweat them, knew they would break. I occasionally have a glass or two of wine, and I drink two shots of espresso with steamed whole milk froth everyday. Water---no sodas-ever, and unsweet tea most of the time. chicken sits like a rock, actually hurts my stomach. I had filet today from Ruth Chris, and it was fine. In general I don't like meat.< /p>
I am so thankful that I got surgery early. I think it has been easier because of it. I know I would not have lost the weight on my own. I am much healthier now and feel very good about myself. I still snore, but I think apnea is better.
My only concern is that I start leveling off in the 120's. I have been in the 110's and I look super skinny at that weight, so I don't want to go there. If you are a light weight, low bmi and wonder if surgery is for you, I hope my story and journey helps. I has been easy and soooo worth it.
Dr Aceves in Mexcali. UUgghh, I leave tomorrow--by myself!!! Surgery Nov. 3rd. I am excited about getting back to my old self. As long as I can get through without any complications. That is my only concern. I am pretty healthy other than sleep apnea. I have always have had weird sleep patterns, but have gotten worse with weight. Are you also around 5'6? I was sooo thin as a kid and all the way to my 30's. Essentially could eat anything i wanted. I never had to diet, and was so use to eating whatever then the metabolism went south. Needless to say, I have had no luck dieting. now my knees hurt so bad that running is out of the question. But as soon as this weight comes off, i am going to start again and work out with weights. I want to be toned---no---ripped!!! LOL
