Just wondering who had surgery around the same time that I did and how much weight you had lost as well as how you were doing in general.

Hi Ishary!

I posted a review of my first month this morning. Today marks the start of my second month. I'm down 18.2 pounds for the month. It looks like you're doing fantastic! Congratulations.

I was sleeved on 1/25 and i am down nearly 40 lbs. I suffer daily from chronic diarrhea. It sucks. Otherwise, most foods go down fine and as long as I keep my carbs at 30g or below, I will continue to lose. I am working out every day as well as training for a race in May. Very excited about that. How are you doing?

I was sleeved 1/25 and as of my 7-week mark this past Monday, was down exactly 26 lbs. since surgery, and 37.5 overall. I've had absolutely zero problems (well, other than the plumbing getting stopped up on a regular basis), have tolerated everthing I've eaten, and feel great!

I had surgery 1/27 & have lost 29.2 pounds as of this morning - 7 weeks out. I wanted that 0.8 gone, but I guess I can't be TOO greedy! My energy levels are getting back to normal & life is feeling pretty good right now. I did do a post yesterday about my calories creeping closer to 800 (range is 600-800), but I think I'm probably overanalyzing it. Pre-Surgery, I wouldn't dream of complaining about being at 800 calories per day. LOL

I was revised from band to sleeve on Jan. 8. I'm down 20/lbs and walk on the 'dreadmill' about 2 miles a day. Feeling great. My weight loss has been slower because I'm only 10/lbs away from goal.

I had my surgery Feb 17th and had my 1 month follow up today and I have lost 40 lbs. I love this sleeve!!!!

Wow Marie! I had surgery the same day as you and I'm down 18 pounds. Did you lose any of those 40 pounds pre-op or all since surgery? I'd love to know what you're eating and what your exercise is. Do you do Protein supplements?

Curious girls want to know!:smile1:

I had my surgery Jan 19 today I have lost 40lbs.

i had my surgery February 25 and I have lost 32 pounds- 22 since the surgery and 10 preop. I am doing well, just starting on more soft solids like tuna and chicken salad. Good to hear from other people just getting started.

Well it seems that we are all right about the same place.

That is really cool.

Thanks for posting everyone!!

I was sleeved on January 27, and I have lost 35 pounds to date. LOVE MY SLEEVE!!! :smile:

You are! But honestly, there is such a wide range of where people are that anything could be pretty normal. I try not to compare, but it is so hard. It is just like kids-I know I am not supposed to compare my daughter to her classmates but of course I do! :smile:

I had surgery on February 1, and have lost, as of today... 25 lbs. I'm very happy with this, and am feeling very good. In fact, compared to my lap-band (and band removal) surgeries, I feel GREAT! Have been trying to exercise (I'm not consistent, but am working on it), have been watching my protein mostly, and water... but not paying super close attention to everything else. This seems to be working for me... Sounds like you're doing great, and I wish you (and all of us early 2010 sleevsters) the best! :smile::smile::smile:

I was sleeved Jan. 26 and have lost 26lbs since surgery. Anything I eat goes down just fine, even nuts which made me happy. I feel totally normal and sometimes forget I even have the sleeve now. I'm hungry all the time though, so I hope that dies down eventually.

Thank you for saying that you're hungry all the time... I am as well. Not as badly nor ferociously as before, but it's there. So, this is harder than I had imagined, but I'm making it work... I've been waiting for meds for the H.Pylori I've been diagnosed with, and hoping this will help with the hunger... One of the side effects I read about for H.Pylori bacteria is hunger. So, we'll see.

You're doing great! :smile:
