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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
