  11. Started at 322lbs. Lowest weight 163lbs but sit around 165 most days I'm 9.5 months post op but 11 months post beginning of preop and been in maintenance now 3 months.
  12. Everyone has their own method... I personally weighed everyday and it was good to see the numbers go down everyday. The first 6 months the weight flew off me it was so good to see.
  13. Most cases sleeve stomach will make it worse unfortunately.... There's 1000s of posts about it....
  14. You should look at getting some help.. Most surgeons request psych evaluation
  15. Don't even stress about that
  16. I was kinda obsessed with my weight loss and was weighing daily; I was losing weight everyday it was crazy the first month but I assume it was a ton of fluid loss. I lost like 20lbs in the first 2 weeks and by one month I was down 38lbs; the first 3 months was insane and I lost all my excess weight by 8 months.
  17. Bypass here but results are very similar between the 2. My weight fell off very quickly for the first 6 months and hit maintenance at 8 months. Lost all my excess weight..
  18. I was drinking water and protein shake in hospital with very little restriction.
  19. Not a revision but had bypass and no complications at all ?
  20. You really need to be 150% mentally prepared for this major life change... If you go into surgery half heartedly and give in to temptations of course you will not lost weight..
  21. Everybody gets anxious at times but don't let it put you off, there are 100s of ppl on here that regret not getting surgery sooner... Trust me it's an easy surgery and quick recovery..
  22. You'll be full of gas and stuff still don't bother weighing until a month out
  23. That makes more sense... Yes everyone is different metabolically speaking and not one size fits all
  24. Okay so all the years of research mean nothing? Anyway I was just giving my experience and what worked for me.. And I was and am successful
