I seem to be on the slower end of the losing scale, but I'm okay with that as long as I keep losing.

I was sleeved July 6th and have lost 42 lbs.

I do try and walk 2-4 miles every day and am pretty strict about what goes into my mouth. I am starting to loosen up and try more interesting foods, but doing it slowly as not to shock my body too much ( may I should shock it!). I don't want to get digestion issues after eating very clean since sleeve date. I just started some new exercise programs yesterday so am jazzed about the impact that will have on body sculpting ( my wife is noticing some muscle loss)

Weirded, VST cut off the first part of my post above. It said I have lost 100 +- 5 lbs since July 2nd sleeve date. I have been through one stall after another, but do notice pretty significant body changes. Wearing 36 pants now and xlarge or large shirts.

I'm with enigmachik...I was sleeved on July 3rd and have lost 45lbs. I also haven't really gone down a clothing size either. I did buy a pair of jeans a size smaller that I've worn. They are very stretchy....that's why I think they fit. I'm trying to look at the big picture....I'm down and that's what matters. Although it is very hard to do when there are others that have lost sooooo much more. :)

I was sleeved on July 16th & I hv lost 38 lbs & 34.5 inches. I'm not sure what size I would be now (I was 22-24) but this morning I tried on a size 14 dress (that I hv had for years) & I fit in it! Its a bit form fitting & tight so I didnt wear it but I fit in it!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
