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?

Will be 4 weeks tomorrow... Down 26lbs last week.... Will post tomorrow my total lost. I'm eating everything I want' date=' very little of it but if I want a taste I have it, trying to stay away from junk food though. Was away all weekend and had French onion soup, broth and one bite of the cheese, and the onions are all I ate, also luv luv butter chicken, ordered some today for lunch no rice, chicken very tender and sauce so good, but again only ate about 1/4c at a time. My downfall will be drinks, love my ice coffee, chai tea lattes, mochas, orange julious, smoothies, may take me hrs to drink but unneeded calories. It was really hard spending the weekend away surrounded by yummy foods, would love to have a regular meal.[/quote']

Hi Tania, that's a big problem i have too, i live my cold drinks, i wish i can get a iced chai from starbucks, but i am scared, and i also like fat free sorbet, anything cold i dont have problem..

OMG! 24 since the 27th? Does that include your pre-op loss?

One week pre op! lol Not all that in 2.5 weeks lol I wish!

I was sleeved June 5. I have a low BMI (33) and have lost 16 lbs since surgery. Definitely slow, but I started at 207 and am now 191. Since my goal is 135/140 I'm not complaining. At this rate, I'll be there in a year. But I just started solids and think that'll help speed up the process since I could eat almost any mushy in any quantity! Solids just STOP.

Alex you are lucky. I'm on mushy soft and I can only eat 1/2 cup at the most. Usually 1/4 cup.

I was sleeved June 6th and I am down 27lbs with a week and a half stall! My sleeve likes everything so far but I don't like meal time. I was hoping not to have food on my mind all the time but just as before sleeve I think about it all the time but this time it's what not to instead of what I want to stuff myself with! I love leaving more food on my plate then I eat!

Hi, I was sleeved June 29 in Wellington New Zealand. Am in a stall at the moment - grrr for almost a week. Reading comments on here is so encouraging. I was feeling so blue about it all - but I feel really encouraged by this forum. I need to increase my Water intake for starters, also now understand the churning feeling (like hunger pains) is likely stomach acid so will take an Omezol capsule in the afternoon as well until this settles down a bit.

The stall this last week was really getting to me, so I hope for better results soon.

I just read this in another thread and wanted to post it ere as it makes so much sense as to why we stall

This is awesome, thanks. Has really helped me understand this more.

Hello June Sleevers! I was sleeved 6/25 and I am down a total of 40 lbs 20 pre-op and 20 post-op (my weight flip flops). You wouldn't think it would make that big of a difference but look at my profile pic. The first one was taken June 8th at a family get together and the second one July 13th. I was shocked myself. I am on soft foods and cannot eat more than 6 teaspoons at a time. I have a scramble egg with cheese for Breakfast. I have notice that if I eat carbs (oatmeal)..it makes me crave them.

I love this site and I love this post!!

I have lost 24 lbs since my surgery. I know it will slow down but I'm happy where I am now. I had been at this weight not too long ago as I lost 90 lbs with lap band (went from 250 lbs to 160 lbs) and gained back up to 198 lbs before my sleeve.

I was sleeved on June 26th and have lost 18 lbs. I am on mushee foods (cottage cheese' date=' mashed potatoes, cream of wheat, creamed Soups, scrambled eggs) I absolutely detest the scrambled eggs, they do not go down well at all no matter how soft I make them. Other than that I am getting in my Protein and Water with no problems.[/quote']

What I do is mix the cottage cheese in the scramble egg and it makes it softer.

I was sleeved on 6/25 and I'm down a total of 32 pounds. 11 pre-op and 21 post-op.

So far, no problems with drinking or getting enough protein. I like cottage cheese and ricotta so that makes it easier and to be honest, I like my soups as well.'

Best wishes to all

Until next time........

June 4th, down 25 and two sizes. I can't eat much, get two protein drinks in, maybe two bites of chicken salad or liver saugage. water is hard. think the scale is broken it hasn't moved in a week and 1/2. grrrrrrr...

How long did your stall last?
