My wife was sleeved on 8/9 and went for her one week followup on 8/15 and had lost 19.5 lbs. She about fell off the examination table when they told her.

I am so proud of her and she is doing so well. My date to be sleeved is 8/23. Can't wait.

Fantastic! Congrats to her!

I got on my scale this morning at the one-week mark and it said I'd lost 18 lbs. I didn't believe that was possible but I guess it is . . . here I go to update my ticker! :)

Doing great after surgery.. I have lost 32 pounds since surgery. Wife has 41 pounds. Both feel wonderful...

Thats Is awesome. I am having my sleeve on 9/21/11. I had a lap band that erroded previously so I have been scared. However, I am ready to start this journey. I am so glad that you guys are doing well. Your success is encouraging.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
