This forum is great!! My surgery was 12/23/13 weight on surgery day 351 and I’m three weeks post op and have lost a total of 22 pounds I’m supper excited for what is to come. I can't wait until I’m in the 280's. I started my workout this week and got 3 days in 30 mins a day. I pray I can have the success that many of you have had. I have a list of things I want to be able to do and I wont stop and until there all checked off.

I was 335 pounds the morning I had my sleeve surgery. Started at 356. I've lost 48 pounds since December 1st. My doctor said either the Sleeve or Bypass was a better option than the Band. I didn't feel comfortable with the re-route of my intestiants so I decided on the Sleeve.

I was over 400lbs day of my op I am just barely under 200lbs now barely but it counts! lol
2 and a bit months away from my 2 year out anniversary recent weight loss was 11lbs between start of jan and end feb, which was high considering nov-jan was only 4.4lbs lol
it doesn’t really matter the starting weight numbers but how you go forward and use your tool for best results.

I started at 320 and was 313 day of surgery. I'm 9 weeks outs and fighting for the last 2 pounds to get me to a 50 pound loss. Sitting at 272.8. So frustrating to bounce back and forth a couple pounds instead of going down steadily. I know eventually it will come off but I was hoping to be in the 260's by now. 270 is where my body always seems to plateau when I try to lose weight.

I am newly sleeved but wanted to post on here. My HW 393. Started journey to WLS at 372 on 6-28-13. SW 340 on 2-18-14. And as of 2-25-14 331.6. 1 week out. I am so looking forward to this journey. Glad it has finally started????. Haven't weighed since then as I am trying to stay off the scales and just recover and learn about my new tool

My HW was 318. I started eating healthier after my initial consult with the surgeon on 1/16 (I had no idea it would be that high as previous HW was 281), then started the liquid pre-op diet this Monday. This morning I was 305.5. I'd really love to get into the 2s by surgery day, 3/10, but I don't know if that's feasible. But, it's amazing to know that I'll be saying goodbye to the 3s soon either way. Makes these crazy liquid days worthwhile, for sure!

Hey all!

I wish you all the best! My highest weight was 330 and now at about a year and 4 months out, I weigh between 150-155 pounds. Don't get discouraged, anything is possible as long as you set your mind to it!

It can be done!!

It's crazy to think that 13 months ago I was 319... I'm now 180! Still a bit to go but a 14 is so far from a 26 not fitting anymore

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
