How much weight have you lost with sleeve?



Recommended Posts

After weighing my options the sleeve or the band.....I'm going with the sleeve!!! Now I'm starting to get a lil nervous and excited. But I'm curious how much weight has everyone lost with the sleeve and how long did it take? I can't wait to get into shape and fulfill a lifelong goal of finishing a 5k race! This has always been my dream and I tried training last year but my weight really hurt my knees. So maybe within 2 years post op this dream with come dream :)

A month out and stuck at a 20 lb loss so far. It's the dreaded stall. But I'm happy with the 20 lbs and I know the scale will move again any day now.

I am just over 5 months out and down 82 pounds. I still have quite a bit to go but am very happy with my progress to date and my only regret is that I didn't have the sleeve done sooner. Good luck to you.

Any recommendations... Been stalled for 2 weeks. I'm 1 month post op and that scale doesn't seem to move. I drink 64+ oz. of Water and I drink enough Protein. I walk all the time and has me thinking, when will this stall end?

I'm approx. 11 months post-op and I've lost 134 lbs (50 lbs to go). I am deliriously happy with my new life and looking forward to things getting even better.

I haven't been this weight since I was 17 (I'm 43 now). I'm getting back to all the athletics I loved as a teenager, and now that I'm doing those sports and activities again, it makes me FEEL like a teenager!

The sleeve was the best decision of my life and I wish I could have had it done 20 years ago.

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
