Made it to my Christmas goal two weeks early! I've lost a total of 71 pounds since I've started my journey. 31 since surgery!

I was sleeved on 9/12. Just wanted to share how excited I am.....put on a pair of jeans I hadn't worn in 2 years!!!! Though its frustrating that the scale isn't moving quickly.....I'm glad that it isn't because I know that slower weight loss is healthier. I have to admit that I have cheated on Halloween candy. Not a lot mind you but I've snuck a couple of Almond Joys. I'm doing much better with getting in my Water but still don't have a big appetite. No regrets!

I'm the same - I only get weighed at the dr. Last time I was weighed was 10/3. I won't get weighed again until 12/10. I try to concentrate more on the NSVs!

As of my 1 month post-op on 10/3 (yeah, I'm slacking), I was at 283.5, down from 306 day of surgery. I know I'm down more, but I only let the Dr. weigh me so that I focus more on the NSV's than the scale. I get comments/compliments almost daily, so I know I'm still losing.
I'm able to eat anything I want, just a smaller amount...I love my sleeve! So much better than the band!

I was told to take small sips to help mush the food up...
I try not to drink with meals, but it does help!

I get nauseous when I eat too fast and/or too much

I had my gastric sleeve on the 29th so I am now 5 days post op. My surgery was completely painless ,not even mild discomfort. I went home the next evening. I'm on the prescribed strained liquid diet with no source of fat or added sugar. My sugar levels are normal after nearly 5years. I have lost 5.5kgs which is 12 pounds. My scars are stitch less and are healed. I have no reflux or acidity problems..I don't feel hungry and I'm doing great so far.

Mr. Dodds, if you read back, everyone stalls at week 3. It works itself out - just keep following the rules!!!

I was sleeved on the 15th as well...I weighed myself today and have dropped 15.6 lbs since surgery...with my liquid diet prior to surgery i have a total of 35.6...I too was hoping for more of a loss after surgery, but it hasn't even been a month....our bodies are in complete shock and I see it as the slower we lose the longer it stays off...AND... or skin has time to shrink! I will gladly take a loss over a gain any day....we didn't gain this weight over night we will not lose it over night either!

Went for my 1 month post-op today!!!! Down another 8 lbs for a total of 21 since surgery, 28 since the week before, and 33 since my high weight! Feeling great and my surgeon is more than happy!!
Cleared for "any kind of exercise" I want.
BMI, Fat % and neck size are also down!!
Feeling great, loving my sleeve!!

I was up and about 2 days after my sleeve too. Everyone heals differently. I had no pain, took no pain meds - didn't even get the script filled. I was able to tolerate soft/pureed foods early too. My energy levels have never faultered. I went back to work the Wednesday following my Thursday surgery.
