2 months post op..and lost 38lb

Believe it or not, Cheesecake Factory did it for me.. they tend to have a big menu option. chicken lettuce wrap is a fave..

That’s amazing!! I’m thinking of opening a February sleeve Facebook page so we can kind of all be able to share pics ideas and feelings? Would you guys be interested? My friend did one for September sleeves and I’m part of it but they are on a whole other level. Lol

Travelled to NYC last night and realized I forgot my Multivitamins. I’m only 5 weeks post surgery. Where can i buy a good bariatric multi in the city?

Hey February peeps! How’s everyone doing? Haven’t heard updates in a few weeks! Sleeved 2/26 so I’m one month this week! Go to my second post op Friday. Feeling good for the most part and def losing! My body feels and looks different. I am thinking of starting HIIT training after I meet with Dr.

I’m at day 32 and I’m still having hard time getting anything more than that it hurts going down. Suggestions?

How’s everyone feeling. I was sleeved 2/15. I’m down 2 sizes and feel like I can take in more Water today than even this morning. I just had 12 oz of water in about 1 hour when before that would take several. Anyone struggling with purée (current stage) Or liquids are you starting to feel a little better ?

I am having the hardest time eating. Decided to stick to liquids for a bit longer. I feel like everything gets stuck between my chest while the food goes down. No bueno...[emoji24]

Aww..i had my sleeve done at Boston Medical Center

I'm also almost four weeks out (Surgery 2/12). My post op diet seems more rigorous than most I've noticed here. Two weeks of liquid, three weeks of pureed, three weeks of soft and then FINALLY real food. I have to admit that it's getting me down - I know it's important, but I will have gone without anything solid for two months.
I'm struggling to get enough fluids and it seems like when I focus on that, my Protein goals suffer. I just need to find that balance. Protein Powder in my pureed foods help, but honestly I'm over that. LOL I find I'm leaning on Protein Shakes to do what I need to do.
My other challenge right now is that I feel like I'm not losing weight as fast as I thought I would. At three weeks I was down 13 lbs from my surgery weight. I've been reading a lot of people reporting that they've lost 20, 30 lbs or more in the first month. I'm following my meal plan closely, haven't "cheated" at all and I've only lost 13 lbs over three weeks. I feel like at this pace it will take forever to get to my goal weight and that has me seriously bummed.
Ok, guess I've vented enough! Sorry you asked, aren't you? LOL

i had mine February 22nd!!!

will it taste the same if i make yellow rice?

Let me know how your doctors visit went please. I don’t see mine until tomorrow and experiencing a lot of sharp pain. I was sleeved 02/12. Pain should have reduced and seems it’s getting worst. I’m getting really worried

I reached my goal and could not be more satisfied! My sleeve was the best decision of my life. 10 months of learning how to use this tool brought me from a size 20 to a size 6.

I used it just yesterday. Not really sure if i am allowed

I was sleeved 2/12 and still experiencing midsection pain. It’s pretty sharp and constant. Happens when I’m stretching, bending and even when I’m just been sitting too long. Really annoying and frustrating. I’m going to see my Dr. this coming week. My incision are fine but that damn pain is keeping me down.

I keep hearing about regain. How do folks keep it off long term? Does something else take the place of food as a self soothing mechanism? Exercise, needlepoint, etc.?
