Recommended Posts

Hello Family sleeved 1/8 am doing good having a problem getting all my Protein in not that I can't keep anything down just forget sometimes :( I can eat almost anything as long as I chew a million times!!! Ate some raw pepperoni's last night and it came right back up too greasy!!! Weighed 265 day of surgery down to 241 so far so good!!! Even though I can't see it everyone else has noticed!! LOL I'm happy with my decision just gets a lil frustrated with how little I can eat before I'm full but what the heck that was the purpose right!! So each day I can honestly say gets better!!!

My post-op appointment is Thursday but things have been great so far. No complications, no pain, no issues at all aside from some pants no longer fitting and being completely sick of this liquid diet :)

Hi all & congratulations on losses and your decisions!

I was sleeved on 1/16. HW was 350ish, DOS 339.5, today's weight is 318.6.

I was amazed at my recovery, I pretty much slept for the first two days home. I went back to work 5 days later an have just felt pretty darn good!

I went to soft foods yesterday and have INCREDIBLE heartburn with refried Beans, Prilosec isn't even touching it. Did very well with cottage cheese last night, my tummy talked about it for at least an hour.

I seem to be able to tolerate any fluids and can finish a rather large amount of Soup at one sitting but on soft foods I can only do about 1/4-1/2 cup at a time. I'm tracking my calories on an iPhone app and I'm trying to get anywhere between 600-900.

I didn't go through any regret phases, I was just anxious the week prior to surgery. It might sound stupid, but I was just so upset I'd never be able to pig out at a Chinese buffet again. Looking at it now I can't believe I stressed out about it.

My husband and I go with a group of friends on a 7 day cruise on Oct. 27. Excited to buy a real bathing suit this year!

Take care!!! <3

Finally got the ok to go back to the gym (no heavy lifting yet) and move on to soft foods today. I had a scrambled egg and a little applesauce. It was wonderful! Went down with no difficulty and didn't feel any tightness or nausea.

I was sleeved Jan 9 th and I've lost 22 lbs. I eat between 900-1200 calories a day. I have no weakness and am losing weight. I can eat most anything in soft foods. I ate one piece of whole grain bread (100 calories 7 grams protein) with one egg for Breakfast and tuna or chicken salad with crackers for lunch , a Greek yogurt for snack , cottage cheese for dinner. I feel great. I am doing a mile a day on the treadmill. I love my sleeve!

Hey everyone!! I was sleeved on 1/30. I started at 253 on the first day of my liquid diet. I was 239 DOS and today (day 5) I'm 230. I'm on full liquids and have created some interesting strained Soups. I ordered some new Protein today in hopes I can get more down!

      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!!

      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?
