New Jersey, checking in!

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!!!

glad you are doing great. Sounds like a good doctor looking out for your well being!

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.

wow you guys are amazing! Is that weight loss all since surgery? I am trying to optimize my weight loss during this honeymoon period. what food stage are you in? I have been walking once a day perhaps I better ramp it up but I still get tired. Congrats on your new job.

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.

Sleeved 12/19. Our weight loss began when we seriously committed to lifestyle changes 2 week preop diet start date 12/03/12, losses to date - me 44 mr 64 . On regular food but limited selection of choices ( stage 3 on our journey). Feeling awesome. Wishing everyone a wonderful blessed day!

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.
