I am six years out and eat between sixty and eighty grams of protein a day. it took me over a year to be able to get all of my protein needs met by food only and truthfully I still use protein shakes once in a while if I’m having a day where I’m just not into meat.

I’ve been in maintenance since 2015 and also weigh myself every day.

I’m six years out and I weigh myself daily. i am about five- seven pounds over my Lowest weight and and I am determined that I won’t gain anymore.

Yes I had to give myself injections of a blood thinner for ten days after surgery. It was a little scary at first, but I got used to it.

I had a sleeve in 2014 and lost a total of 100 pounds. From 272 down to-172. I have averaged from 175-177!for the last year or so. I have slid off the exercise wagon this fall due to weather and illness. But trying to make an exercise come back. During the summer I walk daily.

I'm so upset, I'm a slow loser
Wendyfm replied to Panda333's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I lost a total of 100 pounds . Thirty before my surgery, 70 pounds afterwards. It took me twelve months to lose that seventy. I too saw people losing ten pounds a week. I think those people are the extreme. Slow and steady is good. Be prepared for frustration and stalls. My surgery was almost ten years ago and I have been able to keep most of the weight off, right now I’m seven pounds up. -

When can I have some rice? Lol
Wendyfm replied to dpendleton02's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was allowed mashed potatoes from the start. I keep my carbs under 159 grams my protein at least 60 grams and my calories under 1,300. I’ve mostly kept off 100 pounds. I do stray sometimes and then I gain weight. As soon as I pay attention to what I’m eating I lose again.’other wise I try to eat slot of veggies, some of my starch as fruit and not be too strict with myself because then I want to binge. -
The same thing happened to me when I had weight loss surgery 5 years ago, I was fifty three and thought I was done. I had periods for two more years after surgery I finally finished menopause at fifty five.

Sleeve gastrectomy surgery 2012 or earlier
Wendyfm replied to TheRealMeIsHere!'s topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I’m only five years out, but maintain a weight loss either side of 100 pounds by about five pounds. 100 in summer 95 in winter. I am generally physically active five days a week. The past three weeks I’ve been struggling with a sinus issue. Otherwise I still weigh myself every day and track my eating even on the bad days when I eat too much. -
For me it’s one twisted tea once in a long while or I can do 1/2 margarita. Once in a long while.

Mother’s bizarre behavior after my surgery
Wendyfm replied to mrs_brontosaurus's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My mom is between an eight and a ten. After I lost my weight she would be sure to remind me how thin she is. Even after losing 100 pounds I am still a size 16. I am perfectly happy at this size, so basically I ignore this.
