I’ve honestly been struggling to lose weight despite following my surgeons plan. I was sleeved on 5/7 and am down 42 lbs (which I’m still very happy about). I recently followed up with my endocrinologist for my PCOS and insulin resistance and am hopeful that a new medication and additional diet tweaks will get the ball rolling again.
Hi fellow May sleevers! I am so glad to see so many of you doing well. For those who mentioned struggling, have things gotten any better?
Weight loss has been on the slower side for me, but I’m personally okay with that. I had surgery on May14th, and to date have lost 37lbs, 20 of which was the first 2 weeks lol! But I am happy with my results. For me it’s more about how I feel. And how do I feel? AMAZING!
I have NO pain. No knee pain, no back pain, it’s all gone.
I’ve joined a gym. An intense gym that kills me. Kills me so bad, but I keep going back!
I can do lunges and squats and still walk afterwards. I may have trouble sitting the next two days but I make it work.
I can shop in REGULAR people sections :) still an 18 but not an 18w! There is a difference!
I can ride a bike without feeling like my oversized bum swallows the seat LOL.
I can run without dying. Or knocking myself out with the rebound of my chest! I don’t even have to wear two bras anymore!!!!!
I’m consuming about 60-75g Protein depending on exercise, and 100-110oz Water. My face is slimmer and my wedding band fits again.
