need change

Had surgery June 16, 2015 I'm 5ft went from 208 to 115. Still working at it and still following the rules. I feel great!!!

What a difference a year makes!
HW Dec 2014 296lbs
SW June 23rd 2015 257 lbs
CW 181lbs

I am 40, and I was sleeved June 3, 2015. I'm only 5'3" and started out at 366 pounds. After a few stalls, today I reached 60 pounds off total. I feel so much better. My insomnia and Migraines I have had most my life are gone. I wanted to be healthier for my kids and myself. I have found the strength to leave my cheating alcoholic husband, and I'm ready to live my next 40 years to the fullest!

I was sleeved June 3. I've lost 50lbs since my pre-op diet started. At three weeks my weight loss stalled. Then I lost about 5 more pounds. Now I have stalled again. I'm staying the course, but I would like to see more coming off. Getting Water and Protein in is a full time job. Exercising takes even more time. I'm relying on the testimony of others that more will come off.

@@need change - I almost always get my Protein in so I might have veggies as a snack.< /p>

I was sleeved June 3...so almost 2 months now. I still have trouble getting in all my liquids. They released me to eat some veggies, but after the Protein. I never have room after the protein. I feel like I'm just drinking and eating protein. Any advice?

Here are two of my newest
One is face...I just feel like I look completely different. the other is from soaking in some vitimin d in the FRONT yard yesterday while my kids played. I didn't want to scare the neighborhood with the full bikini (lol) so I wore my running skirt with a bikini top, but it was so awesome to feel like I could go layout in my front yard without being mortified. :-)

As of today I am 100lbs down!!

And awards gala in March and then awards gala tonight. From a size 26 to a size 18. I started at 346 in March, on the day of surgery ( may 11) I weighed in at 316 and this week I weighed in at 276

@@need change - start cooking it, reading about it and talking about your new foods and recipes and share with your family. You may find out that they like some of the new stuff or may want to change out some of the less healthy foods for some of your ideas, recipes, etc. Don't sit off in a room and feel left out or sad. Make something you can eat and share. This is your path, own it.

I was in the same situation. Weeks three and four after my surgery were the worst. They would all be pigging out on dinner and I just wanted to scream at the top of my lungs!! It gets better. I'm exactly three months out today and they can sit and eat a huge meal in front of me and it doesn't bother me at all. I just thank God I can't eat like that anymore and think of how much better I feel now that I've lost weight.

My family revolves around food. We cook it, read about it, and talk about it. I was sleeved June 3, 2015. The hardest part so far is being left out. My family doesn't know what to talk about when I'm around. They fix the most beautiful meals. I have to go in the other room while they eat and laugh and talk. They feel awkward, and I feel sad. I don't know how to interact with them and I hate feeling left out.

Oh my gosh same here. I went to dr today convinced I had an infection. Incisions are bright red and one is so swollen looks like a mole hill. They said I was allergic to surgical glue. Nothing to do but Benadryl, hydrocortisone, and wait for the glue to fall off. I've never itched so bad!!!

I didn't lose anything for almost 2weeks and I was so frustrated, but they told me to stay the course. I did, and yesterday the pounds began coming off again. Keep hope alive and trust your doctor.

Down 96lbs. Surgery was March 10th
