Feb Sleevers 2012 How Much Have You Loss/ Any Concerns



Recommended Posts

So far I have lost 61 pounds. I was sleeved on 2-10-12. My biggest concern is that I can't take anti-inflammatory meds any more and I am in terrific pain from my back and a bad knee. Oh well, guess I have to take the good with the bad. :(

congrats 61 pounds is great!!!!

Surgery date 2/23 starting weight 217 now 180.

Does anyone drink with a straw? If so how has it affected you if at all.?

I only drink with a straw. I get way to much air if I don't. I think each person is different so it just depends on how you do it!

I was sleeved on Feb 28th starting weight 205 current weight 173 so a total of 32 lbs. I have hit a stall and I am very concerned. I worry to much. Can the stomach stretch back out? I am able to eat 900 calories a day. I work out 3 x a week at Zumba and do an elliptical the other 4 days a week. I think I just need the scale to budge' date=' I would like to see 169 lbs soon.[/quote']

Me too Angela and I was sleeved the same day as you.

Bought size 16 pants today! Down from size 22, surgery date 2/7/12. scale has stalled but clothes sizes still going down. I need to get better with my exercise so I can get those 26 lbs gone and reach onderland. I can't wait to fly next week to see what a difference it makes in the airplane seat!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
