Anyone sleeved that day? Where are you at in progress? Pre surgery weight was 218. Today I am 169! One more pound to the 50 lb drop mark.

I was sleeved August 7, I'm have lost 69 lbs, I started at 347 now at 277. I'm feeling really good except I still get tired quickly. It is surreal to think the weight is coming off when I always feel full. I never felt full before surgery, I could eat a whole pizza myself, and whenever I dieted I was always so hungry and miserable. I love my sleeve!

Awesome. I know what you mean about being full. I can eat a little more now which worries me a bit but I am extremely glad I did this. Starting to get a little sag in my tummy. Hope it will tighten with the gym.

I was sleeved Aug. 6th. Starting weight was 267, today's weight is 214, so a total of 53 down. I' m 5'5. Down from a 24 to a 16. I can definitely eat more now, but that sounds normal. It's healing. Just keep measuring your food.< /p>

Yeah that's a concern for me too, I have a large sag, comes from years of getting overweight. I just have the hardest time finding the energy to get to the gym. You would think chasing around a three year old would count for something! I have been doing free weights and cardio at home, but I have a nice size hernia so sit ups are out until that is repaired. My surgeon wants to wait for some weight loss. Even with saggy skin, I wouldn't change my mind about the surgery. Skin tucks much better than fat!

      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! 😞
