I was sleeved on Oct 9th. Yesterday was my 1st social eating and as I am from a big Italian family who's sole social settings revolve around food I am proud that I actually lost a 1 lb from yesterday. My family is big grazers but I took charge of myself & made breakfast and lunch. I did indulge with a glass of wine but for dinner I sampled only a few items (quarter size) and filled up on turkey and my Splenda cranberry sauce. I had a bite of my sisters cherry pie and considering that there was literally 1 pie / dessert per person am super proud of how I handled my eating. I am 2 lbs shy of 50 lost.

You had wine at 6 weeks out, didn't it hurt your tummy?

I drank a new world red (California Pinot Noir) which are lower in acidity than old world reds. I savored it slowly and had no problems. I also drank after my afternoon Water portions so my stomach wasn't empty.

I was sleeved on 10/29 I hve lost 20 lbs. Slow but I am ok with it,as long as I follow the process it will happen. On the other hand I am tired, I walk and its such an effort I don't sleep well at nite it is a challenge to get water in. I am on mushie food. I hve not weighed since my 7 day post op doc appt, I hve my one month doc appt on Friday will see then. All and all I am good no regrets. Can't wait till I the energy kicks in.

I'm able to eat what I want too. I still haven't tried eating anything hard or chewy yet I'm too chicken. It took me long enough to be able to be comfortable with food. Like you I eat 3 meals and 1-2 snacks. Cashews have become my new fav snack lately. Yumm

I'm starting to wonder if I am the only person not to loose weight after being sleeved. Total from surgery, I am down 26 pounds mostly lost in the first two weeks then some over Thanksgiving day weekend. I haven't lost since then. I drink my water, protein intake at 94 grams, and eat 900-1200 calories a day ( usually closer to 900). I'm really hoping I didn't go through all of this for a 26 pound loss.

Are you taking measurements? If not, I think the measurements mean more than weight. There's an app called weight tracker that you can log your measurements and weight and even if you don't lose weight you'll see your percentages drop with measurements.

I'm at a similar pace!! I am currently in a stall for the second time since surgery! I've lost 25 pounds since surgery on oct 22 but I can tell in clothes that it's working! I am not eating as many calories as you though, I range anywhere from 500 to 700 a day

I was sleeved 10/29 and have been through two stalls (currently in the second stall). I am at the point where I can eat what I want, but find I stay with cheese, ff refried Beans, canned chicken Nd tuna, and Protein shakes. I have to admit I love my chocolate protein mixed with Water and sf hazelnut syrup. It tastes like iced coffee. :-)

I'm in MFP also if anyone wants to add me.

I am down from a baggy 26 pants to nice fitting 22. So measurements would be a good idea. Thank you. "Patience" is my new mantra.

I was sleeved 23rd October!!!
