Finally I Am Embrassing My Sleeve Aka Mini Me



Recommended Posts

its 6 weeks today. i am now happy and relieved and excited. i spoke to my nut because my dr said 1200 cal and my nut said no its ok to do 800cal and 120 carbs is ok. now i feel like i can breath and enjoy eating again without feeling like a rope is around my neck. she also wants me to do only 1 shake a day yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. because i get in over 100 grams of protien. so since im getting it in food i can reduce my supplement yayyyyyyyyyyy.everything else is ah ok

That's great! I wonder about my weight loss stalling as the calories go up. I did great on Jenny Craig 2 years ago, but when I ate 1200 cals. I didn't lose, when my food selections totaled less, closer to 900 cals. a day, I lost 1-2 lbs. Of course I got to the point after losing 70 lbs. that I just couldn't 1) stand the food any more and 2) just couldn't lose any more (I was exercising 5/6X week too!) and paying close to $100/week for my food, motivational and exercise tools! I think I'm going to have to stay under 1000 if I want to see the scale move regularly! Good luck, have a blessed day!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
