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



Recommended Posts

Hi

I was sleeved on 2/14 and and down 51lbs so far! I am still having trouble with drinking enough Fluid. I think I've drank the 64 oz a day 3 or 4 times since surgery. Any ideas? Ive tried every kind of flavor for my Water , drinking milk and everyday I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast

I am the same way! I was sleeved 2/19 and I know I am getting close to being dehydrated again! So frustrating. I only had about 30 oz yesterday. I feel like I am so thirsty, but just can't drink. I feel like I am full to the top! I keep trying to just sip sip sip, but not enough is getting in. I keep water with me at all times.

Hey Guys,

I haven't been on here in a couple weeks but I am glad to see everyone is doing well. I will be 10 weeks tomorrow and all thought I thought I was a slow loser, it's coming off in spurts. I am excited for my next apt.

I already have a huge change in energy. Yesterday I ran home with my kids from the pool. my husband had the car to drive us home but I wanted to run with the boys instead. The old me would have taken the car home.

I am also starting train for a couple 5ks.

Hope everyone is doing great!!!!

I will be 8 weeks on monday as of today lost 19 pounds total' date=' less then I have wanted, but slow is ok, don't want hanging skin. I eat 40 carbs a day, I try for 800 some times its more or less, I try to get 80 Protein, adn 64 oz Water, I always have a Protein Shake every day which is 30 grams, I use a 32 oz bpa free water jug and fill it 2 times, so I know I have to keep drinking till end of day. I have not tried raw veggies or fruit yet. Going to wait till 3 months out and then try it, I only have troubles from chicken, it sits weird on tummy, so eating seafood and alot of ground beef ( chili) these days. mary[/quote']

Sounds like you are doing a very thorough job step by step and I picture big success for you

I am the same...but I asked my nut if sugar free popsicles are included. I love them and have a couple a day. They are included in the 64oz and due to melting you have to finish them .

Hi everyone!!! It has been a while for me. I have been super busy working 65 hours a week and running the kid to arena football practice and games/track practice and meets I haven't had much time to get on here. Hope everyone is well :-)

OK am 8 weeks out and lost 45# . but the dreaded flap jacks have started(my breasts are melting). Ugh. I was hoping that wouldn't happen but a few close people have noticed and commented too. Guess its time for some duck tape lol. But over all everything is good and steady..isn't that what wins the race?

I feel embarrassed eating around people cause my stomach starts making funny noises. Anyone else experience the belly sounds.

Yes, mine is constantly making wild angry animal noises. It doesn't usually matter what I eat some days are better than others. It doesn't always hurt just can be very noisy

I have been eating these great wraps! I love bread & Pasta so this is great! They are carb balance by mission. They have 120 calories, 3g fat, 1.5g sat fat, 19g carbs, 13g Fiber & 5g Protein. So these have only 6 net carbs!!!

      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.

      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! 😞
