February Sleevers

I'm set up for February 4th. Seems like forever away. People keep telling me, "oh don't worry". It bugs me cause I'm not worried. What seems to keep popping in my head is, am I doing the right thing.

I would like to here what others are thinking, going through.

My Doctors plan is two days preop clear liquid, not 10 like I've been reading on here. Anyone else similar?

Thanks,

Kimo

Great job. Our weight loss is running on the same schedule. I was sleeved on 2/22 and as of last Friday' date=' I'm down a total of 39 lbs. Tomorrow is weigh-in day for me.[/quote']

I was sleeved on the 21 and down 40. It's so nice to see that I am on track with others!

Ironically, our surgery date and weight loss is nearly identical. I was sleeved the day after you and have also lost exactly 40 lbs. Time for me to mix in some exercise. Your user name is Salsha and my real name is Sasha...hum.....:-)

Keep in touch!

First stall this week. Down exactly 40 lbs since being sleeved on 2/26. I refuse to weigh myself more than once a week. Not panicking yet. We'll see what next week brings. My clothes are fitting diffe even though the scale didn't move.

Wow, I was also sleeved on 2/26 last weigh in at surgeon's office I was down 23 pounds. Next appointment is Wednesday 24th. I had a stall at 3 weeks and since then am trying really hard to stay off scale. Week ago by my scale I was down another 4 pounds. I wish I was in your shoes and down 40 pounds. Keep up the good work.

I lost a total of 1 lb last week, which is the least amount I have lost since my surgery. I don't think a bad week or two constitutes a stall. From a dietary standpoint, I did nothing better or worse than the previous 8 weeks. I think its better to measure our weight loss on a monthly basis, not weekly. My belt tells me in getting smaller, so I'm not too concerned about the scale. I was losing an average of 4 lbs a week. This week brought my average down a half a pound. Not too concerned. Time to exercise!

Yes that was my thought that a week or two isnt a stall plus the doctor said I'm losing at the rate they expect with my BMI so I try to remember that when i see other losing at a much faster rate. If their BMI is not show then I just think their's maybe higher then mine. I also am walking alot more. THey dont want me to do anything else or then walk right now.

BUT I'm looking HOTT. And I have a friend that gave me 9 garbage bags full of clothes do I'm enjoying playing dress up. Oh I forgot to mention I had lost 40 lbs pre-op so I'm down 76 lbs all together.
