Before And After Gastric Sleeve Surgery Photos



Recommended Posts

Thanks and I wouldn't mind staying at 233. A co-worker of mine had bypass and he has lost so much weight that he looks really sick. I don't want to go that route and I try to each as much as possible. That is one thing that worries me because I don't want to get that skinny. Congrats to all of you and this surgery does have it's challenges but the results are worth it.

Thank you so very much ! ! !

I got to goal in 6.5 months with 115lbs lost, and then I dropped another 23ish pounds over another 4 months as I got into maintenance. I had maintained my loss for almost a year until the pregnancy hit, and I've gained a few pounds with the pregnancy.

Hiiii, newb here ::waving:: though I see a few familiar faces.

I see that you lost over 100lbs in 6 months, while others seem to be a lot less. I know we all lose at different rates, but is there something you did to help expedite your loss?

Y'all look great. I'm sooo happy and feel really calm about my decision to go with VSG instead of RNY.

I'm sorry it took so long for me to reply. I didn't get a notification that you had quoted a post of mine.

All I did was low carb (less then 30-40gr per day), at least 60gr of Protein and pushed clear fluids until I hit goal.

I had a lot to lose so it seems like I might have lost more than others, but I lost all of my excess weight (by the BMI chart standards) in around 7-8 months. I was at my and my surgeon's goal in 6.5 months with 115lbs lost.

It's just what worked for me. I just didn't mess around with carbs, ate 4 meals a day, no snacking, no b.s. Each meal consisted of a minimum of 15gr of Protein.

The people that lose less pounds in 6 months might not have as much to lose as I did, or they make have the same post-op guideline. Maybe they're not willing to low carb it. The fastest results I've seen across the board is staying in ketosis by eating low carb, pushing clear fluids. I also have no metabolic issues, or co-morbidities that could effect my weight loss numbers. I never used hormonal birth control. So, I really just pushed protein, and worked out after I hit 4 months post-op. Then I did weight lifting exercises and 1 days of cardio, that only lasted for 4 months until I had to have my gallbladder removed and was put on restricted activity because my surgeon removed hoards of scar tissue and adhesions from my abdominal cavity from all the surgeries I've had.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
