Nov Sleevers... What's Your Status?



Recommended Posts

Hey November sleevers!

Great work& congrats!!!

HW: 245lbs, 5'4"

Sleeved 11/16: wt 225lbs

CW: 164lbs. Total loss of ~80 lbs. I feel great. My mom had my jeans I wore in high school on a closet 13 years ago& I can fit a size 12, down from a 24. Had social problems with friends becoming catty towards me. It's odd how much nicer strangers are to me though. I'm really humbled by how the sleeve has helped me. It's the best thing I've done for myself. I aim for 800calories 60+ grams protein& under 50 carbs per day.i can exercise again& sprint with my dog. I want to lose at least 30 lbs more. Thank to everyone on VST who has inspired me& kept me on track.

Hello all checking in...surgery was Nov. 7th I have lost 94 lbs. Good: feel free. Dropped a few clothing sizes' date=' able to do so many things physically w/o pain.....loving life! Bad: Hit my first stall...been there a few weeks & my hair is thinning rapid. Still even with the bad it was the best decision ever.... My life has changed dramatically![/quote']

I wonder if you need more Protein. My Nut recommended I stick to a minimum of 80g of Protein because I was on the taller side. Just a thought!

I can't believe how much my life has changed since nov 12... Highest weight was 233. Today 154! Never thought I would see the day. This Summer has been so fun, dating and wearing size 10 white jeans! Someone pinch me! :) The only real downside is the saggy skin and deflated boobs... But nothing a good bra can't fix! I'm not going to complain about that! :) cheers to all the success of my fellow November sleevers!! :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
