February Sleeves How Are You Doing?



Recommended Posts

Was sleeved 2/14 I feel healthier then ever. I lost 32 lbs so far. I have a ton of energy and I love to workout. I go to gym at least 3-4 times a week. I walk for 30 a day. I keep my calories under 700. I am able to eat 3-4 oz of fish, turkey or chicken somedays. I am burned out on yogurt, cottage cheese and ricotta. I found I can tolerate Decaf coffee Foldgers called smooth. I love sheetz non fat cold latte. Dq has spelenda smoothies with Protein, sometimes I bring my own protein.

I am feeling great! Still struggling to get all my liquids in between meals, but doing great with my Protein. I had a long stall, but increased my calories to about 1000 and started losing again. I am trying to do 4 to 5 meals a day to get my protein and calories in. I had trouble with getting my protein with 3 meals a day so my doctor said it was fine to do 5 small meals, so much easier! My clothes are getting so baggy, it is awesome.

I was sleeved on 2/13/12, have lost a total of 32 lbs (including pre-op diet), I am eating about 1100 calories a day (trying to get in that 70 gms of protein!), and feeling pretty dang good. I have to start moving more. I have been so sedentary for so long I think I have forgotten how to be otherwise!

I did a scary thing yesterday - I ordered summer clothes online in two sizes smaller than I am now. We are going to Florida in July (which is also insane) and I needed to get some clothes, but I didn't want to buy clothes that fit me now. I think this is called "counting your chicks before they're hatched" :-)

I was thinking if getting some goal clothes for my July vacation too! We can count those chicks together.

My clothes are so baggy now you cant tell I lost anything.

I am glad everyone is doing great. I too have ordered smaller clothes hoping they will fit. Has anyone stalled yet? What are your favorite food?

oh yeah, I had a month long stall. I think I'm going to be one of those "stall, lose, stall, lose" step-method of weight loss people. Frustrating but to be ignored ;-)

Favorite food: lamb - ground or chops or roasted with mint/apple jelly .

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
