185 sooooooo close to my goal... I'm really excited ????

Awesome.... I'm lower now. Weighed myself Tuesday and was 189. Going to weigh myself today but don't want to lol..... Only doing it because today marks 5 months post op

196.....these photos were taken on June 6th....I believe I have lost a couple more pounds ????

I figured it out lol... The pics are me at 273 & 196.... I'm not at goal weight but still proud of what came off with the sleeve......

OK gotcha.... Everyone is different... I was eating that amount of calories for a while. My number just recently increased up to 800. I believe my low calorie intake was due to not being able to tolerate anything really.... Meat in particular. So I was eating light Greek yogurt with unflavored Unjury giving me 30 grams of protein per yogurt cup... I had 2 of those a day given me my daily minimum of 60grams. Inbetween that I would have some type of fruit or veggie..... From what Ive read a stall is no weight loss for 3-4 weeks..... And I didn't hit any... The longest period I had euthanize weight loss was about a week. On June 27th I will 5 months post op and down 80 since surgery and including my 3 month preop diet I'm down 100. I started at 293. Surgery weight was 273 and my current weight is 193. My goal was 155. I would post pics but I don't know how to on posts lol. If you go to my profile they should pop up... I think I might look too small at that weight because I am 5'8". The only advice I can give is to listen to your body, aim for 60-80 grams of protein and get in 48-64 ounces of water. My doc suggested that per serving my fat intake be 3 grams or less and my sugar be 5 grams or less.....I believe the week I didn't lose anything was because that week those numbers increased... So for the long post lol... Was trying to get everything out lmao ???? good luck on your journey ????

I put in a little more than half a scoop to light Greek yogurt. Witgbthose 2 combined that gives me a total of 30 grams of protein for tgat one yogurt cup...... I would have one more for lunch that gives me my daily minimum of 60 grams for protein.

I was doing around 400-500

You have to just let It pass

I mix unflavored Unjury in my yogurt....

One week

Update: I made it to onederland ???? current weight is 194

Yeah you are good

Lol How far out?

I'm still learning what I can eat and not eat..... or shall I say what I can tolerate. A lot of things make me very nauseous. It's a learning process. Surgery weight was 273 I'm down to 229..... this weight was achieved without exercise. I keep saying I'm going to start lol.... but I really need to soon.

Yessssss good luck on your journey☺

Lol ???? feels great. .. a lot of my donors are noticing....

Yes sweet!!!!!! I'm excited for you!.... I'm a month out now and I'm down 28 pounds..... including pre-op I'm 48 pounds down☺

Thanks☺

Pre op diet I lost 8 pounds.... which put me back at 273. My last supervised diet visit was Dec 8th. My pre-op diet began January 13th. In-between that time I had gained 8 pounds but lost it again during pre op diet. The diet that I was given was 2 protein shakes and then a regular meal for dinner for 2 weeks. .... I have read about others having to do 2 weeks on a liquid diet.

The first 2 days were manageable as long as I kept up on my meds. Days 3-5 I went from taking meds every 6 hours to every 10-12. Day six I no longer needed the pain meds. The first 3 days I also had the gas pain.. which was extremely annoying.

Pretty good actually.

2 weeks post op as of 2/10 and I lost 21 lbs. SW: 273 CW: 252

Omg!!!!! This is too freaky lmao. Your user name is my friends name and his year of birth lmao. That means I need to call him.... anyways mine is ppo. I believe if your bmi is 35 with Co morbidities like the ones you have you won't have any problems with getting approved. I will say do not gain any weight during tour supervised diet. Me, for example, I was able to do the 3 month supervised diet with the dietician, which was located I my surgeon's office.... In October my weight was 292. At my next appointment(November) I could not weigh more than 292... I didn't I weighed 280. Same went for Dec. I could not weigh more than 280 and I weighed in at 273. I had to be careful with my weight loss because my bmi was 43 and from all the posts that I have been reading if your bmi falls below their requirements you will not get approved. So when I was on the supervised diet I didn't make drastic changes. The first month I cut out pop which gave me the 12 pound loss. The next month I ate the same foods but small portions. The third month I cut back on snacks. I was approved within a week..... I hope I covered everything lol... feel free to ask more questions and let me know if I left something out.
