I just realized that I'm only 3 weeks into sleevedom and I've already lost a quarter of my excess weight and the inches are flying off. Best part is that I have SOOOO much energy. My toddler wakes me up around 5:30am and I'm up, moving about, walking 3-4 miles daily and living like a normal high energy person chasing a mini Tasmanian Devil until I pass out around 11pm. I am easily meeting my daily Protein and liquid goals. Life is good.

Since I am a self-professed datawhore, I've been diligently tracking all my stats including measurements weekly since Jan 22nd, a week before my surgery.

Roxannez.....congratulations! I am also just shy of 3 weeks out and have also lost about 30 lbs including the preop diet. Have you hit any little plateaus yet? I seem to be a little stuck already and find it frustrating. I too am a datawhore, I write down every bit of food/fluid that I put into my mouth. I am also walking about 4 miles a day as well.

Thank you all!

Rbott, I haven't hit any plateaus yet. My NUT said that the best way to avoid them is to vary my diet almost every day in addition to hitting Protein and liquid goals which I have been trying to do. I'm not registering a loss every single day, but at least every 3 days I definitely do. (Yes, I weigh myself daily ) I hope whatever stall you're in breaks sooner rather than later!

Roxannez....have you had any vomiting episodes? I had my first one today, and I don't believe it was because I ate too much or too fast. I often have this feeling in the center of my chest like what ever food I just injested is sitting right there....I think I may have a stricture. Just curious if you have experienced anything like that?

I had a single vomiting episode and I'm pretty sure that was because I drank a mug of herbal tea too fast (tmi, but at least it was raspberry tea coming up instead of something worse!). I also get the stuck feeling in my throat if I eat too fast. Honestly I think it's my new full signal. Although, if you're in any way concerned you have a stricture, I highly recommend checking it out with your surgeon, just in case.

Great job Roxanne! I'm at Methodist today. Should get discharged tomorrow. I get pain in my chest if I drink too fast also. It's encouraging to hear about your progress.

That's fantastic, happy discharge Erp. May the weight roll off of you without any complications!

So happy to hear about your progress!! I am the exact same weight as you are (and 5'5" tall) so I hope that I have similar results as you are having!!
