I had surgery March 12

I’ve started having problems with the skin on my stomach as well. I got prescribed an anti-fungal powder and they documented it for insurance purposes for when I do try to go for skin removal surgery. My surgeon won’t have us consult with a plastic surgeon until a year out. The hair loss is horrible!!! Im taking biotin and using nioxin to try to get plenty of regrowth as quickly as possible. I’ve lost a total of 81 pounds, 17 of which were pre-op.

I speak with my nutritionist every month but that’s only because I purchased a package that provided for that. I was sleeved 3/12. Down a total of 62 pounds, 18 of which was pre-op.

Sleeve 3/12. I am down a total of 55 pounds including preop diet. I think I’m in a stall currently. I haven’t lost anything in a week

How is everyone doing?

As of today I am 251 pounds. Last Friday I was 255. I am down 26 pounds since surgery and 45 pounds overall. HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 251 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

I would be interested in this! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 251 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

How did your post-op appointments go? HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 266 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

Good to know. I will start sending emails if I’m unsure about anything! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

Which nutritionist did you meet with? I met with Shara Lazar. I thought my initial consult was quit rushed and the packet that they gave us was not super informative. I bought that package though so we’ll see how she is when I make my appointments through that. I had no problems going right to purees, thankfully. I have been sticking more to the yogurts and ricotta type stuff though. I did make turkey chili but I puréed it to a thin consistency. HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

Sounds like we were all supposed to be there on Wednesday!! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

How are you doing/feeling? HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

I’m also supposed to go Wednesday for my follow-up but I think I’m going to call tomorrow to try to reschedule since I’m going there from Staten Island and we’re supposed to get this storm now. I’m doing great! I’m managing to get all of my water and protein in each day, thankfully! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

I also love the cherry blackcherry! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 268 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

We were sleeved on the same day by the same Dr! HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 277 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

There are several different types. It’s flavored water infused with protein. I know that premier has premier clear, there’s protein2o and this is the one that I like the best. It has 20 grams of protein in 16 ounces. HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 277 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

I was also sleeved on the 12th. The only way I was able to meet both my protein and water goals today was by drinking a bottle of protein water. Two birds, one stone. But it’s a huge feat to even do that at this point HW: 296 SW: 277 CW: 277 GW: 150 Sleeved 3/12/18

I have my surgery tomorrow. Have to report to the hospital at 10:30!

March 12th is my date as well!

March 12th! And I’m experiencing the same combination of excited/nervous emotions.

Good luck!

Hi, was just wondering if anyone had any updated information to the above question.
