6 Weeks And 2 Days Out!



Recommended Posts

I am soooo glad I had my sleeve done! I am like so many others - my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner!! :)

I am LOVING my food - shrimp, salmon patties and crab are my favorites - but have also enjoyed baked chicken and taco meat! I love how my clothes are fitting me and how I fit in the theater and stadium seats without my butt touching the sides!

My dimples (on my face) are more pronounced, my jaw line and chin are more defined...and I have my cheek bones again. I can definitely tell I am losing from the top down!!

My sleeve puts up with my love of spicy stuff - haven't puked once or been in pain. I know my breakfasts are small, but I can get 3-4oz at lunch and dinner no problem. I haven't had a nasty shake/ Protein Drink in a month and I pray I never have to again.....

Any doubters out there, all I can say is it has been wonderful for me!!!

Yeah! Good for you. I hear you sister! It's the best thing I've ever done for myself also. You are doing GREAT!

Don't be surprised though if you do have some rough spots, but then again you might not. I've had some throwing up issues, when I've gone just beyond what my sleeve can handle. It's not fun, but it is a real good checks & balance system on what not to do.

Congratulations!

      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! 😞
