March Sleevers..are You Happy W/your Progress?

[DDFinn 118]

I am finally going to add in some exercise to see if that gets my weight moving down. I got on the scale this morning and it said 199.8. I couldn't believe it, I was in onderland! I ran to get my phone so I could text the picture of the scale to my sister (who is also my sleeve sister) got back on the scale, 200.2. Got on 3 more times and never made it back to onderland. Talk about a short stay!lol

I'm sorry, but that is funny (your comment, not the fact that you didn't get to stay under 200). "Short stay" is right. I'm sorry onederland was so short, but maybe in the morning you'll hit it again. Keep us posted.

I was sleeved on March 18. I feel happy with my weight loss, but I have hit a stall, too! Pre op I lost 16. My one week post op I had lost another 13. Since then I have lost a total of 33. I thought I would have lost more by now. I feel frustrated. I will keep going, though.

Sleeved march 27th and not happy

[danyelleb 386]

realwmnhavcurvs- I'm sorry to hear that you are not happy. Hang in there! I think I'm finally hitting my stride and I was sleeved on the 12th. I'm finally not as sad about food AND I am getting through the work days in one piece. The scale is moving slowly but surely for me. I hope things change for you.

I was sleeved on 3/9. My weight before my 3 day pre-op diet was 226, day of surgery 220 and today 202.5. While I am not UNhappy with my loss so far, I'm not thrilled either. No one has noticed my weight loss, I can still wear the same clothes, more comfortably of course ...but still. I just thought I would do better to be honest. How about you?

Well, I have lost 21 lbs so far and am at five weeks. I am ok with my progress, I think I could be losing faster if I was exercising more but I am having a hard time getting everything in (I have a super long commute to/from work which doesn't help). People tell me they notice, mostly b/c I am losing weight in my face, which I love, and I am pretty much down a dress pants size.

Everyone loses differently...I think it's a positive step and as long as I continue to lose I will be happy.

I was sleeved on 3/22 & lost 34 lbs the first three weeks. This week nothing! I am on my period & I think that is the problem. This is frustrating! I am not weighing until next week!!!!

[tmoss 33]

I was sleeved 3/26 and I'm 46lbs down but I see no changes. Every where I go people say oh you lost weight cause I can see it in your face. Damnmit can you see the weight loss anywhere else. That is what I want to say to them, but the only thing I do is smile.

I was sleeved on 3/05/2012....

Christmas - 320

Consult. - 310

Surgery - 294

Today. - 259

So that makes me down 61 pounds from my heaviest and 35 pounds from surgery. I am happy to finally get into the 250's. I am seven weeks out as of tomorrow.

Sleeved on March 2nd, weighed 294 the day of surgery, and today I am 254. 40pds in 42days so I am happy. Best decision I have ever made!

Wondering what everyone is eating now..

[tautry 95]

I am eating soft & protien.

I have finally passed my stall... Yay!!!! Started back at the gym on Monday and have already dropped almost three pounds. I was really beginning to wonder but continued to keep the faith.

So glad I decided to log on and read everyones weight loss. I had my surgery 3/28, first two weeks I dropped 19 pounds. Since then I've only lost two more pounds.It becomes very frustrating because I know that my food intake is obviously a lot less and I'm drinking a whole lot of Water. I just don't understand why the weight isn't coming off!!! I guess I should be happy with the 21 pounds, but wish it was more. I decided to not weigh myself everyday and limit it to once a week. I'd be happy if next month I can say I lost the same amount but my high hopes can't be expected, all of this is very trying at times

Hi! It seems to defy all logic when we consume 400 calories and do not lose weight. It's crazy. At six weeks I have lost a total of 23 pounds since surgery. I wish it was a whole helluva lot more, but it's 23 pounds. Couple that with preop weight loss and I'm doin okay I guess.
