I'm newly sleeved & wondering how much others have lost being around 240ish! How long has it been? Workout regiment? Please share(:

No point for surgery if you are 240 lbs.

Excuse me? Wow... pretty presumptive.. You don't know how tall she is? Whether there are extenuating medical issues? I weigh less than that and other than being 100+ lbs over MY ideal weight, I am considered healthy. I am having surgery next Wednesday so that I don't have future issues like some of my family members did...

xD chill people i didn't mean to frustrate u all ahaha

I started at 242 (4'11'') at the beginning of my 6 month medically supervided weight loss, day or surgery I was 213, I am 122.2 now, just inside the normal BMI range. My surgery was 8/8/11

Started at about 241, 5'1" and surgery on 4/19/12. Weigh 168 today.

I'm 5'3". Entered my surgery program on 3/15/12 weighing 233, not my highest. My surgery was 6/25/12 and I weighed 190. 11 weeks out I weigh 151. My exercise has been walking. I walk a little over a mile to work and then home again. I try to have long morning walks on weekends. I also do some light strength training, sit ups, girl weights, etc.

Hey i was 277 before surgery on may 22 now im 220 on August 7. Feel great. Only problem i think i might be prego.... Ugh...

Sorry' date=' i didn't Mean to be rude, just sayin 240 LBS isn't that big, pre op i was about 315 lbs,i had the surgery because i can't control my self with food and i've tried many diets none worked,i did it at 15 now i'm 16, sorry for my grammar and english .[/quote']

Well I was 233.5 day of surgery and only standing 4'11 so don't say I didn't need surgery I need to loose 100lbs.

I started at 254- surgery I weighed 250.

Surgery was May 15, 2012

Today is Sept. 9, 2012 and I weigh 171 today.

83lb loss in 15 weeks.

My workout is walking or hiking twice a day for 30-40 minutes each time.

I am only 5ft 1 tho.

Drs goal for me 140ish- my goal 120ish.

I'm 36 and three kids- two births-

And a GIANT round of plastic surgery on the horizon

I was sleeved on July 16th weighing 244lbs. Last I weight was 217 dwn 27.1 lbs & abt the same in inches. I also dont hv a wrk out regiment due to being tired a lot & wrking. Praying as I lose I will start gaining energy.

Honestly, You would probably gain more energy if you did workout. I know it's hard to find the time, but you have to do this for YOU!! You had the surgery, use the tool.

Thank you! I knw, i hv tried & i need to make myself but i thk w the lack of fluids tht i dont hv the energy. Im trying to do more.

I have no idea how I'm going to drink all my water after my surgery since I don't drink enough now.

I know it's hard, but when I did workout, I had more energy, just didn't lose any weight, so I gave up. I like working out. Can't wait to do it again AND lose weight. :-)

Can you tell me how many calories, carbs, and grams of Protein you aim for each day? I am also 36, started at an almost identical weight and am about 15 lbs behind you - our surgery date was a few days apart. I'd like to think I'm doing everything I can to have success, but am wondering if you have a plan that could be more successful for me as well. Thanks!

That's rude. I'm around that weight and I'm MORBIDLY OBESE. Yea I'm short but whatever. We all need help.... it doesn't matter if you only need to lose 20 lbs or 2000 lbs' date=' we shouldn't judge.[/quote']

I completely agree. I lost 10 before surgery but was 225 at day of surgery. I herd the nurses talking in Spanish that I was skinny. I was a size 18! On the BMI scale I was morbidly obese with sleep apnea, borderline diabetes, borderline high blood pressure and aching joints. All if that is now gone and my BMI is in the overweight section. I'm still a work in progress. But I hated it when people would say "you are not that big".
