Sleeved on Feb 11 Down 30 lbs since surgery Ive had no problems since having my surgery, Each stage of the diet was fine. I am on solid foods now. I have found a couple items that I ate that my stomach doesnt agree with. Other than that, I healed well, with weight loss! I get all my Water or liquids in per day and my Protein. I have a bottle of Smart Water with me and drink it all day (refill as needed). I eat my 3 main meals a day with 2 Snacks (Unjury Protein shake or cheese/meat roll, cottage cheese etc) I am staying focused on what I can and shouldnt eat. My taste buds seem to be off since the surgery, I found I like spicy foods more than I use to and I dont care for Jello...lol I thought I would have lost more weight since the surgery, but I realize that I am still doing well and by not losing so fast I think/hope that a lot of loose skin wont be a problem. I will be able to work out next week. I had 3 hernias repaired the same time I had the VSG. If it wasnt for that I would have been working out sooner. Only thing I could do was walk. wasnt able to push, pull or lift. So with being back to work and able to work out, I am hoping to get my body going in the right direction. I am happy that I had the surgery and I am looking forward to being a thin me in the coming months!

I love Unjury... I have unflavored that I use in many recipes. You can add it to drinks,jello or pudding,yogurt, sauces,etc. It has no flavor at all.

I was sleeved on 2/11 and have lost 20lbs. I lost most of the weight the first two weeks and then it slowed.. I was feeling kind of down after seeing so many losing 20-40 lbs the first month.. When I went to the Drs for my month checkup, I was told I was doing well. I was told that even if its just a couple pounds a weeks its good! Im happy to see that I am not the only one that is losing weight slowly.I am getting my water in and my proteins. I am following a strick diet as per my NUT and Dr. I also look at it, if I lose slowly my skin has time to snap back and not have so much loose skin if I lose it fast. Although I know I will have some. I know everyone is different and we all have our own stories, Lets look on the bright side, we are on a journey of making ourselves healthy besides losing weight. Lets concentrate on the positive, I know I am!

Thank you for asking a question that I also wanted to know about.. I lost 13 pounds 8 days after surgery.. and now at a month out .. I have only lost 3 pounds more for a total of 16lbs. I have read so many others that had lost 20-30 pounds the first month.. I have been watching what I eat and drink and I am doing well other wise. I also had hernia repair when I had the sleeve done. I am thinking that maybe my body needs heal time beside. I know that each person is different and will continue on my road to a healthy life style and eating being a life style too! Good luck on your jouney.. will keep an eye on your posts!
