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



Recommended Posts

My surgery is Tuesday 26th @ 8am. Yippeee can't wait to start this next chapter but I've been wondering from my fellow sleeve family that had the procedure last month. What's the 1st areas on your body where you noticed the weight loss.. I keep hearing in your face is that true? I know everyones body is different tho.

My upper tummy! Congrats

My wife likes those. I can take them or leave them. My vice is the little baby bell light cheese that's in a white wrapper and dipped in red wax. They are kind of pricey in the store, but costco sells them cheap.

Walmart also sells an extra low fat (75% fat free, I think) cheddar made by Cabot that's excellent. It's 60 calories an oz with lots of Protein.< /p>

I'm 5 weeks postoperative. The PA said to do whatever I want in terms of working out. She said at this point there's nothing I can do that will damage my sleeve.

Well that's cool! Cuz I want to get back into really hitting it hard

I just ate an innie piece of pizza!!!! Why do I feel so guilty? :( I'm 5 weeks out and so far so good. Normally I would ate 5! But I'm scared due to eating the crust.

I'm at the end of 4 weeks and I've been stalled for most of this week.

I have been stalled since the 18 of this month. I am not happy about it, but at lest it gives my body time to get caught up.

Its been one month today, down 30 lbs! I can't believe it, I can tell in my clothes but in my mind I don't really see it!? I am still on Protein Shakes and one meal a day. Fish today from Schwans and cottage cheese yummy! Went to a wedding last night and I crossed my legs :) Wow! I do feel great and full of energy! Loving it!

I can't complain, I'm down 27lbs. I think I'm losing inches. If I don't lose anything by weds. then I will be a week. I had another mini stall around the 2nd week I think.

I kinda feel the same way I can tell in my clothes but in my mind I feel as if I been here before (when I lost weight before) so I try not to think to much of it. When I lose my next 15 pounds that will put me at a smaller size/ lower weight than I have lost when diet and exercising without the sleeve.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
