  1. We seem to be in the same boat.I also fell off after 6 months and decided to do whatever I wanted. I started at 397 and got down to 292 at my lowest and after two years post op I am at 322.3 as of this morning. I have to get back and on track. I two am searching the boards trying to find my way back. Good Luck!
  2. I can completely relate to this. I was sleeved September 11th, 2014. I was 381 the day of surgery and at my lowest reached 293 lbs at about 10 months out. Previous to surgery I was 395 lbs so to me I felt proud in the fact that I had lost 102 lbs. In the past 6 months I have gained 17 lbs. I am back up to 310 lbs which I told myself I would never let happen. Every day seems to be the same story of me telling myself that I would get back on track that this will be the day and that day has come and gone time and time again. It is very frustrating.

    South Florida Buddy?

    Hi Ladies! I am now 10 months post op and down 91lbs. I am 26 married with no children but hope to have one on the way within the next year. Please feel free to message me anytime even at this point I need all the motivation and encouragement possible. It is a very long journey but as long as you have support you will overcome all obstacles.

    South Florida Buddy?

    I am familiar with these I actually had my surgery done at South Miami so I do get the monthly newsletter about the meetings. I guess I thought I could do it alone and was a little apprehensive about attending them. I guess I should check it out this month. Thanks.
  6. Hi there! My husband and I were sleeved on the 11th also. We see our surgeon for our 6 month follow up next Friday. My husband has reached goal, but I've got about 85 to go. He must be so excited! I am glad for my loss but now that I am stalling it's kind of scaring me. I don't see my surgeon again until the middle of April but when I saw him in the middle of January he was impressed with my weight loss. He says with gastric sleeve I should only be losing 8-10 lbs a month.
  7. Hey Everyone! I was sleeved September 11th and down 75lbs. I have hit a stall the past three weeks and have even gained two lbs. in the past week. Not sure what's going on but I hope I can't get it back together and keep up the weight lose. I still have about 100lbs to lose.
  8. I am almost six months post op and down 75 lbs. I still have a long way to go and I am finding myself getting discouraged and loosing myself in this process. I would love to have a buddy who lives close but am willing to work with anyone. I am 26 and would prefer someone within my age group who can relate. Thanks

    3 Days from Sleeve and TTC

    I am 25, and was recently diagnosed with PCOS. In 2012, I had a miscarriage which at the time I was not TTC at all. After this I was kind of heartbroken and me and my boyfriend (at the time) now husband decided to really try. We tried for two years to no avail that's when I was diagnosed with PCOS. Now looking back I really shouldn't have even tried do to me being so big and all the complications that could have come along with it. I would definitely have been a high risk pregnancy I was nearly 400lbs. I got sleeved September 11th, 2014 SW 395 CW 349 so I've lost 46 lbs. so far. I do plan to TTC within the next year provided I am close to where I want to be goal wise which is 190lbs. I decided I would start trying around 230lbs.
  10. @@Rovobay I was just scared I was doing something wrong. It's like I gained a pound and the stall began. I must also admit I stay on the scale everyday which I need to stop. I called the NUT today and made an appointment for October 8th so hopefully I will be able to get a handle on my eating habits.
  11. I was sleeved on 9/11 and have already hit a plateau but I'm not sure if this is normal at two weeks. I've always been told the plateau usually happens around week three post op. I am afraid I'm doing something wrong. Like others have stated I am also having trouble getting in all of my protein and water. I can't stomach protein shakes and I get down maybe 32 to 40 oz. of water a day.
  12. I've heard a lot of people talk about a three week plateau but at just two weeks post op I gained one pound and have been stuck at this weight for about a week now. I will officially be three weeks post op on Thursday. Is this a normal plateau or could I be doing something wrong?

    Pureed Stage One Week Early

    I agree the thing I wanted the most was the eggs. I am glad to be on pureed foods now but the scale quit moving.
  14. So I am officially one week post op. On my pre op diet I lost 12lbs. I am now a week out from surgery and have lost an additional 16.2 lbs. For a total of 28.2 lbs. lost. I am so excited I can't believe how much weight is just falling off. I know my week three plateau is just around the corner and right now I won't even be mad with the progress I've made thus far. I'm just hoping for another 15-20lbs to come off before then.
