Over 400Lbs Gastric Sleeve Success Story

[jbyler 20]

I'm going to get weighed tomorrow. I'm kinda nervous. Hoping I still am losing and not in a stall. I have been following the plan for the most part but I did have a couple bites of my husbands ice cream last week. So far everything has gone down great & nothing has came back up. This will only be the third time I have been weighed since my surgery on 4/3. So far I have lost 26 pounds & hoping I can add to that soon. Sorry for the rant just feeling nervous.

Finally got weighed today. Friday got messed up so it didn't happen then. Well the verdict is I lost 4 pounds since may 6th. Kinda bummed with the low number but still excited I'm losing if that makes sense. I was sleeved April 3rd and have lost 30 pounds since then.

4lbs is still good. We all have weeks we dont lose. Plus for me i tell myself when i only lose a lb or two that if it wasnt for this sleeve i wounldnt be losing weight i probably would have gained more by now. 30 lbs since april is really good and should be proud

[jbyler 20]

Good luck!! I lost 30 pounds before surgery & 30 after so far. It's hard but you can do it!!

Hi there! When I first started this whole journey of weight loss I was 397, and before surgery I lost 35 pounds and that put me at 362 right at surgery. I am now 290 and lost total 107 from when I began, and 72 pounds since surgery! The sleeve is a tool, that is something I keep telling myself everyday. The sleeve will work better if you make healthy changes to your diet and exercise. Six months ago I was sleeved and I have zero regrets, even when I go through a stall which will happen I have no regrets. I wouldn't be scared of the bypass, my mom had the bypass and is doing great and she is 5 years post op. One thing to remember every surgeon is different and will suggest what they think is best for you overall to become overall healthy and loose the excess weight. Good luck! With any surgery you have, you will rock at it I have faith.

Jasmine mine suggested bypass as well but I said I wanted the sleeve and that's what he's doing. Hopefully your surgeon will go with what you want. I'm scheduled for surgery July 14th and need to lose 20 more lbs to be at 380 before the procedure. Best of luck.

My surgeon suggested bypass, but having done my own research I chose the sleeve. It's a joint decision between their medical expertise and your personal desire. You'll be living with the effects for the rest of your life, not them.

Hi all just and update. 34 pounds lost 6 more to go to reach pre surgery goal. Once I reach that goal I will be out of the 500 's. That is exciting.
