Oct. 15, 2012 Sleeve Date



Recommended Posts

I was also sleeved October 15th. First two weeks were miserable, went through the depression stage and regretted my decision on a daily basis. Now I am sooo happy I went through with this! Day of surgery I was at 257. Today I am at 231! Whoever thinks this is an easy fix has another thing coming.

How's everybody doing? I've been hungrier than usual for the past few days and it was starting to freak me out.

But my DH pointed out that I'm fighting a cold and likely need more food than I've been eating. Sounds legit to me, what say you, my fellow sleevers?

We have become such a quiet bunch lately. How is your sleeve going?? I can't believe how easy this process has been. I started the gym today and am allowed to add some light weights. What kind of workout are you doing?

Hi! You're right! We have gotten quiet. Things are just moving right along with me. My weight loss stalled a bit over the holiday, but it picked up again. I last another four pounds this week. I'm down 36 pounds now.

I'm in awe about this working. I haven't yet trusted it completely and maybe I won't until I've lost all the weight, but so far it's really working.

I'm not really working out much. I've been doing some wall pushups and walking everyday. I have not been cleared yet for weight lifting, but I am doing some work on my arms with light weights...mostly when I'm watching tv. It keeps me from thinking about food (the one time I really want to eat).

How are you?

I have just been coasting along. I have great weeks and nothing weeks. I think I'm down 36 pounds too. I'm down to 1x tops and size 22 bottoms from pre-surgery 3x tops and 26 bottoms. It'll be after Christmas before I drop another size.

I've been trying to walk fast or jog to help get the weight off, but I ended up getting diagnosed this morning with planter faciatus (spelling?) on my right foot. Which is pretty painful when I walk. I'm still walking but using inserts in my shoes. I haven't started weights yet... I have a post-surgical visit tomorrow morning to see how I'm doing. I plan to ask permission at that visit.

The great side is I haven't found a single food that I can't handle with my new stomach. My favorite is a slice of fresh motzarella (sp?) topped with a roast beef half slice, a roma tomoto slice and an olive. Its healthy - low carb - and sooo yummy. Also when I feel like I'm having an empty stomach (constantly hungry) day I eat a bag of 100 cal popcorn. I try not to eat anything after 6pm and eat something the second I wake up to jump start my metabolism.

Keeping my fingers cross that I will break out of the 250's before Christmas. Its still so unreal how fast the weight has come off. I love this journey!

Hope you fellow 10/15ers are enjoying yours too! Have a great week!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
