Down 110 At 5Months Post Op!



Recommended Posts

It would be impossible to put into words how absolutely fabulous I am feeling. I will let my pics explain!

Pre-op: 368

Today (5 months po): 358

For all the pre-sleevers, I went through days even weeks when I got so discouraged. The scale had times no matter how I stood on the scale it wouldn't move. I promise though, before you know it, it's dropping again!

look beautiful...but a typo only has you loosing 10 lbs. you're in the twos now! lol

You look great. Can you share more about the Hair loss? I am considering the sleeve. My oldest daughter had it done around the first of the year and has lost a little more than 55 lbs I think. She has been so encouraging in my studying this procedure. I see that you shared that the sclae didn

t move sometimes but you hung in there. That is great.

Continue to encourge newbies like me. Its a big step.

Thank you for sharing.

That is awesome. You are losing .73 pounds per day. At this rate, you will officially disappear in 353 more days. So put July 21, 2013 on your calendar.

OR you could just Celebrate your awesome success!!!

I have gone through several different stages. I was walking about a half a mile at 2 weeks, then worked my way up to 2 miles. I was doing the 2 miles for a couple of months and then it got too hot. Not sure I am a gym person, so instead I have been going to our local pool and swimming at least an hour - 3 days a week. The pool is home to me so it doesn't even feel like a workout, even though I burn 2xs or more calories than walking.

As for eating, I can have anything without upset, which is awesome! I stay away from breads or at least a lot of it. But I have also gone through stages with that too. When I was finally able to eat normally, I almost felt like I was eating too much, which lasted for a few months. I was even getting hungry. The last few weeks have been completely different, I do not feel hungry at all! I can eat maybe 2.5 ounces before I feel like I am going to pop. Which is fine by me, I was only eating because I know I needed too. I am diligent about drinking Water and have it with me at all times!

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

      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! 😞
