The last dr visit they used the normal size Bp cuff instead of the extra large, I'm down one size, I too can tie my shoes and I can walk over the entire walmart super center ( no more scooter). Sleeved Nov 26th lost 83lbs so far.

call better safe than sorry!

So far I have had no post op problems my a1c is 7. I was sleeved nov26th. I am off metformin and glimepride totally and have reduced my insulin results by half.

I also was an 11 and had to get below 8 before surgery, I did by staying below 1200 cal, and 100 carbs per day. My sister and I also wanted to be sleeved the same day but insurance issues got in our way but we were sleeved one week a part.

Great progress, you can really see the loss!

Are you taking gasx ? If not try it it helps me, don't know why its just starting though could be eating something new or starting a new stage. Please call your doc if it worsens or other symptoms develop

Could some of you that are a month or more post op please post what you eat in a day? How Many Carbs do you get? Do you still feel Hungry? How much are you losing per week? I nlost 20 on the liquid diet and only 23 since surgery 8 wks ago.

I found them to they are great for a treat. Cals and carbs arent bad for a treat and a lot cheaper than Ben & Jerry's Frozen Greek Yogurt better Stats too.

Why Thats 4lbs a week, sure you wish it was more but before surgery when is the last time you lost 4lbs a week without starving yourself? Keep your chin up have you measured how many inches have you lost? Do your clothse seem looser? Remember this "Just when the caterpillar thought her life was over she became a Butterfly"!

Hang in there, hide the scales, exercise, eat right, enjoy life and the rest will take care of its self!

assuming you are starting soft, cottage cheese, tuna and chicken salad, bananas, mashed potatoes, any soft meat, veggie, or fruit basically

Its most likey because of nothing solid and just liquids it should get better when you move to solids.

I have a hard time seeing it my myself as well but i can see it in you be encouraged and keep up the good work.
