Hi everyone, I havent been able to post for awhile due to computer issues...Im 3 weeks post op ive lost 25 pounds so far and feel great! I could not of ask for things to go more smoothly than they did after my surgery was up and walking within 4 hours of surgery. I had no pain meds at all after they took the pain pump on the 2nd day and I havent had any issues with keeping foods and liquids down. My Dr. told my son he couldnt of been more pleased with the surgery. I have follow up visit with him on the 29th. Im still not back at work yet my insurance company approved me for 30 days so I took the full time however I would of been fine going back after 2 or even sooner so now Im just enjoying my time off and getting in as much walking as I can......Glad to see how well everyone is doing, Ive got 6 more pounds to lose for the Halloween Challenge.....Good Luck to everyone in the Challenge!

Per my nut...anywhere between 2 and 4 oz a time is where we should be at this point, I also am eating a whole pudding cup with a scoop of Protein added so thats apx 30 gr of protein. I like to get the choc pudding and add the vanilla protein...good luck to you!

well good luck inarakatra,
I know your hoping its sooner than later

Ok so I had my surgery on Monday and as some of you know due to all the fluids they pump in you you sometimes gain weight while in hospital, so having said that I am at 268. Still keeping y goal at 240...see ya next Thursday!/.

drink 3 oz premiere protein about 7. Start Water 20 minutes-water is taking me along time. About 10 some Greek yogurt-yo plait 100 calorie. I eat one a day, it has 13 grams protein. Back to water. About 1 or 2 pm 3 oz of Protein Shake. Back to water. 4 pm finish protein shake. Back to my water. 7 eat some Greek yogurt. Water again then around 10 finish off Greek yogurt. Then go to bed.

Glad u had a good experience Janie! Hope mine is just as good :-) sept 27th, getting very anxious and excited!

I had my surgery on Monday and it wasnt near as bad as i thought it was going to be came home yesterday and slept almost all night. Im only taking pain eds at night so I can get a good nights sleep. getting all my liquids and Protein in is far from where it needs to be but im doing much better than i did while in hospital. One day at at time and I will get there! I hope all my other September sleevers and any other month for that matter are doing well!

Hi all,
It is 7 weeks until Halloween and I wanted to start a Halloween Weight loss Challenge. We could weigh in every Thursday until the 10/31.
9/12 - starting weight 172lbs
10/31 goal weight 165lbs
Please join me and Good Luck!

Made it thru surgery! Took about 2 hours
Had the sleeve & hernia. Doing ok, on oxygen about 2 hours after, some gas pain, went to the bathroom. Already & up on my feet walking in my room twice. Still light headed, so they said no laps quite yet. It's still early. So there's still a lot that could happen. Time will tell. Just remember while in the hospital to Breath Deep as you can, it helps with the gas pain. Move you feet while in bed or sitting, helps prevent clots. & walk ASAP
Good Luck to everyone that's doing the surgery today. & any other time.

The 16 will be a GREAT day..its my 22 year old twin sons birthday and my surgery date..back in the same hospital, same floor..exactly 22 years to date and I havent been in a hospital over night since then, so if its another 22 years before it happens again I will be fine with that!! Good luck everyone!

I refuse to be "tied down" to my scales. I am pre op and right now I am weighing myself every morning just to make sure I havent gained any..I have a son that lives in the next own over who will come over often I have told him by the time I get home from hospital I want him to hide the scales and when he comes to visit I will weigh myself.....If I do what I am supposed to do its going to come off. It didnt all come on in a day and its surely not coming off in a day I dont want to have the roller coaster ride of the ups and downs after the surgery, you usually gain a little right after from what Ive read and Im not going to let the scales control my life....well thats the plan anyway...LOL

I liked Isopure and they where my lifesaver the first month as I couldn't stomach the Protein Shakes.< /p>

Personally, morning. But I think you can weight yourself whenever you want, just do it that same time everyday. That will give you a better idea of your actual weight loss. Also, If you are weighing yourself a lot during the day, you may not always like what it says.
