I was sleeved June 26 in Melbourne Australia... June 25 for you northern hemisphere folk.

I am losing already, 94 kilos or 207 lbs, pre op I was 103 kg or 227 lbs at dietician visit 1 week pre op.

I am not watching calories, just Protein protein protein. Entering puree stage..

What are you guys doing?

Sounds like you have done great so far!!! I was sleeved on the 13th, I was 295 lbs going into my pre-op diet and now I'm 255 lbs as of this morning. I lost 15 on my pre-op diet and 25 since surgery. My Dr ramps up to a solid food stage fairly quicky so I've been on solids since day 7. I only have a couple of restrictions at this point like red meat, pork, pasta, rice, uncooked veggies and potatoes.

I was sleeved 06/12, I am down 29lbs

I was sleeved 6/18 I lost 14 preop and now downa total of 32. I started soft food stage yesterday! Felt good to chew and everything went down fine and agreed, but it was hard to eat all the protein I need. I will have to drinkable protein shake during the day too. Good luck all you June losers!

Way to go guys!!

The diets do vary so significantly!

I had pureed beef today, with consume to thin it out. Was tasty!

I am on 3 resource drinks a day which give 20 g protein per 200 mL drink. Also vitamins.

My tummy hasn't really rejected anything as yet, only had pumpkin soup (other than beef puree)

I have to say, I may be burping a bit more than usual? I am careful not to drink around ppl I don't want to burp in front of! Hopefully this will pass!

Looking forward to sharing more success over the next year with you guys!!

Sleeved on June 25, got the OK from my program's dietician to start puréed foods this morning. Chicken salad paste never tasted so good. Down 15 lbs since surgery.

Then we were sleeved the same day! June 26 in Australia is June 25 in USA! Freaks my mom out all the time!

Great job so far!!

Hi. I was sleeved on 6/25 and so far I'm doing well. I just walked 4 miles this morning! Down 30 lbs so far! It would be great to keep this thread alive.... Best wishes to all

Well, let's do it! Can't wait to share our successes!

I was sleeved on the 25th I am losing weight but I only realize I am hungry when I get dizzy and it is a daily struggle to get in my protein. Glad to hear everyone else is doing so well!

I was sleeved June 12th. So far so good. Pre op weight was 242. I am now down to 218. I did hit a week where I didn't lose wieght. Just this week, it just started falling off. I find it difficult getting in all the water and protein.

Hi I was sleeved on June 18, not sure how much I've lost as Ive been camping for the last week, and when I got home the battery in scale was dead but 2 weeks nnout I was down 20lbs.... I have been on solids for the last week... got to skip the puree stage. I think I have a sleeve of steal, nothing upsets me, haven't thrown up, not even in hospital and am enjoying eveythink in moderation... hard to eat healthy when your camping, but the little that i did eat wont be enough for a gain, I do wish that my sleeve was a little bit pickier, when it comes to sugar, ice cream and ice coffee's still taste so good, and go down so easy. Off to find a battery first thing in the morn.

Oh and does anyone have muscle pains still.... I keep on twisting wrong and feels like im tearing my muscle at one of my incisions, hurts for a few days then feels better and I do it again.... hurts to walk, cough and sneeze... like a knife jabbing into me...

I was sleeved on June 23. First 12 days I list 23 lbs but have post nothing in 5 days. I am on pureed foods and getting all my protein, vitamins, and at least 50 ozs. of liquids. I hope the weight gets going again soon. Congrats to all June sleevers! Lets all keep in touch!

I was sleeved on June 20th and now down 25 lbs. I started puréed/soft foods on Saturday. It's a struggle to get all my protein but I get in a little more each day. So glad I'm on this journey!

I was sleeved on June 20,which is 3 weeks ago today.... and have lost a total of 17lbs, but have gained back 1lb......not sure why, started at 201 and pre surg was 195, now at 184 and HOLDING...Goal is 145......struggling with the protein, but getting plenty water....I have lost inches though, waiting for the weigh to start "falling off" like everyone says....WHEN exactly does that happen? LOL, this is a great thread. I appreciate any feedback!
