FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved



Recommended Posts

Happy to report that today is my one year surgiversary! It's been an amazing year and I'm so happy that I made the decision to have the sleeve, it has been life changing! My only regret is that I waited so long! To date I'm down 189 pounds, and I'm just 9 pounds away from my goal weight, I know I'll get there soon, and that will be a big celebration! Here is my before and after! It has been a lot of hard work, but what a difference a year makes! Thanks to all of those that have given me information and encouragement to make my journey easier! Couldn't have done it without this community! Cheers!!

Wow great job congrats

Very exciting

Yay

Happy 1 year Surgiversary to Me!! Went for check up with surgeon and labs are good and Doc says I'm doing good! I flexed for him and he admired my biceps!! Lol He said it is going to be a work in progress still to get to where I want to be but he thinks I am doing well. I am down 60 lbs from 224 to 164 and want to get to 150 then dream goal weight of 135. Ready to work for it all!

Congrats on one helluva job! You look fantastic btw but I bet you already know and more importantly FEEL that way :) My hubby lost 155 lbs on his sleeve and wavers around 200 now give or take...and also feels and looks good. I think it's the men that seem to lose more and faster. Did you end up having your gall bladder out from the rapid weight loss like my hubby? My own 1 yr is coming up quick and I've still got a bit to go but not stopping till I get there! I'll post my own before/after Feb 25...

Thanks Susanna , it does feel great and yes, the gall bladder blew in October! Four more little scars, I just say now I have a 9 hole course on my belly well not really a belly any more!LOL

I work with a woman who was out of work for 4 months, recovering from a horrible traffic accident. Upon her return, she walked past me not recognizing who I was. That was probably the best feeling I have experienced since my surgery.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
