Haven't been on here for awhile. Have lost 107lbs all together(Been on a break last few months) but I will get to nmy goal weight of 135lbs. Only20-25lbs to go.Doing well,still LOTS of compliments.Can't believe it's been over a YEAR since my sleeve!! I still love it, just that my tummy is a lot more sensitive now to things,but that's okay.Hope everyone is doing well!

Miters36 replied to monalisa1010's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I've been somewut "messing around" thses last few months so I do indeed have about 30-40lbs to my goal, but I'm back on track now and already down 7 mor pounds in a week. It will come, be patient. you did the right thing by getting the sleeve. I LOVE mine and would do it again if i had to. Good Luck! -
Absolutely The Worst Experience
Miters36 replied to PreciousCargo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel your pain sister! Just hang in there. When I woke up from surgery it too was a horrendous nightmare. I was in terrible pain, but worse i was dry heaving nothing like you. I was terrified I was going to ruin my sleeve and /or barf up my stomach! It was definately a nightmare...BUT, it did get better with each passing day and I am SO glad i went through what i did because I lost 100lbs the first 6 months. From 265lbs to 165lbs March to September 2011. Unfortunately I let myself get off track for a while (I stopped dieting and also I was pregnant and miscarried) so I still have about 35-40lbs to go to my goal but i'll get there. And you will too. Keep the faith, it IS WORTH THE STRUGGLE! Good luck! -
So here I am Jan.18,2012 and I still have roughly40lbs to go to reach my goal due to messing around a few months (and also being pregnant for 6 weeks). I NEED to get back on track! But I'm finding it so hard to get motivated again. I love walking but its always so rainy and windy here this time of year especially.There' no indoor place to walk, no money for a gym. And I'm stuck on See's butterscothch suckers and foofoo sweet coffee. March 15th will be my surgiverssary and...

Miscarried. And Heartbroken :-( How To Get Back On Track?
Miters36 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello all, I am 9 months out from sleeve surgery and lost 100lbs in the forst 6 months. I still had/have (now) 45lbs to lose to hit my goal of 130lbs. Last month I found out I was pregnant. Yay! Very happy and just planned to lose it all after the baby. Well, no such luck. I miscarried last week and am so very,very heartbroken. But I don't want to wallow in self pity. I want to get back on the diet wagon and lose the rest of this weight! I want to lose this 40-45lbs, stop smoking, and get HEALTHY.Basically become the BEST i can possibly be so that I can try to conceive again in the near future. Problem is that I feel like I don't know how. How do I start again? Clears? Pouch test?Protein shakes? How many calories should I be having now? I feel like I've really lost my bearings. Can someone PLEASE PLEASE, give me some advice as how to start again? I'm a person that really needs structure in a diet. This is more important than EVER to me now. I just need a little help. Thank you, -
Well so much for that. I lost my pregnancy last week. Extremely heartbreaking.So I guess I'll be getting back on the diet wagon now. I'm 175lbs and need to get down to 130lbs my original goal weight.Just gonna try and get to my goal,stop smoking,and get healthy. Be the absolute BEST I can be physically,emotionally,etc. so that I can try to conceive again in a few months. I'm 38yrs old, the clock is ticking....LOUDLY. Anyway, not so easy getting back on track now. Honestly,I don...

7 Months Out From Gastric Sleeve Surgery And Knocked Up
Miters36 posted a topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
Hello all, I was sleeved March 15,2011 by Dr.Kelly.I started at 265lbs and by September/October I was down to 165lbs. 100lbs lost! woohoo! well, 3 weeks ago, I found I am pregnant.(about 7 weeks along now). I've had polycystic ovarian syndrome since I was 13yrs old and have 2 children ages 18yrs and 11yrs.old. While we did want one more child before our child-bearing years were over(I am 38yrs old and my hubby is almost 40yrs old), I have to say this was certainly a big surprise! I am ecstatic! And then again, terrified of gaining a lot of weight back that I worked so HARD to lose you know? I understand I will probably need to gain 15-25lbs but I am worried out about what that's going to be like...seeing the scale creeping up. And even though I KNOW it's for a good cause and it's really ok to gain some, I'm already somewhat freaking out. In 3 weeks I've gained 7lbs! Wut the heck??That CAN'T be right! Now I don't plan on "dieting" while pregnant, but is it possible to lose just those few pounds I just now gained? Honestly, I don't see how I even GAINED weight already! The most calories I probably had in one was like 1800 or so. More than my usual but certainly not enough to gain so much that fast right? Anyway, any advice out there for a prego like me? I want to gain the LEAST amount of weight possible without jeopardizing my little poppyseed (baby). thanks! Dinah -
Is it possible to still lose weight and be healthy while pregnant? Not a lot of weight mind you,just a little being as I'm still overweight to begin with (still have 35lbs to go after losing 100lbs.)I'm not gonna be all obsessed about dieting at all,I just don't want to gain a bunch of weight & have that much more to lose after I have the baby. And I do know that i need to be eating protein 1st and what not. Any advice?
