150 Lbs Gone In 206 Days Since My Gastric Sleeve Surgery



Recommended Posts

Hello VST community.

150 lbs GONE in 206 days since I started my pe-op diet

118 lbs gone in 179 days since VSG

Under 300 lbs for the first time in over 20 years

Over 1/3 of ME is gone.

I can buy cheap clothes at Wal-Mart and second hand stores instead of expensive Big and Tall shops

I can actually fit in places: public bus, port-a-potty etc.

Females actually talk to me (ex wife is mad at me for losing weight)

I guess you can tell I am pretty dog gone happy :)

Why do stalls alway occur right before a major milestone?

Lots of info and support from this board helped make it happen.

Thank you.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
