Hi from Mississippi!! Was sleeved on the 19th too and doing great!! My doc is being more cautious with me that I think he should. Still on full liquids. I guess I shouldn't complain though...I'm a revision from the lapband and he said he was really concerned about the extensive scar tissue I had. I've also survived my first stall. Thank goodness that's over for now!!!

Anyway, hope everyone is doing great!!!

Sleeved 12/19/12. Feeling great! More energy. Reading all labels, weighing / measuring foods. Hit a stall - now passed - down 41 lbs. Mr sleeved same day - down 62. Walking 2- 3 times day for 20 - 30 minutes. Spent part of Sunday clearing out spare room upstairs down to am empty room and transforming into an office space for new job working remote / telecommute - which starts soon. Wish you all good health and continued success.

My doc advanced me to mushy Protein on day 3 and regular texture Proteins (no red meat for 30 days) on day 14. I'm surprised some folks are still on liquids. Glad to see everyone's making great progress.

That is so wonderful! Glad you are feeling so good and have had a wonderful start. I have lost 27 lbs since being sleeved on Dec. 19th as well and 40 overall since last Sept. with my preop diet. I feel well on the path, I am trying to make the most of this period of weight loss because it is the best during the whole journey. I will be going to soft foods at the end of the week and not go to a regular modified diet for another 6 weeks after that. enjoy!

I've lost 18# since surgery on 12/19 and 16# on my 2 weeks pre-op mostly liquid diet. I'm happy with 34# in 6 weeks. I think it could be more but I'm not getting 64 oz of liquids a day. I'm between 34 and 50 on most days. Did anyone get pain in their left shoulder and/or chest? Gas-X strips work wonders. Here's to getting lean in 2013!

Hi Fellow 19th sleevers, its been a little crazy for me, had bad gas trapped for a few days then a sour stomach for 4 days and finally I am feeling great again. Went to my Nut and got a bunch of new foods to eat and I don't have to drink Pea Protein and best of all I lost 30lbs and 20lbs of that is fat. Its been rough and I ain't looking back, forward go go go. Hope everyone is doing good.

Oh George's Aloe Vera works well for sour and upset stomachs.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
