Sleevers over 300lbs?

  • Popular Post

I notice that must sleeves are in the high 200's but is there anyone who started higher. My weight day off was 362 give or take a pound....my doctor told me the most common procedure for my weight was the bypass but the long term results are very much the same. Im 5'7" but I definitely strated off way bigger than some posts I see...just curious to know I'd I'm alone lol

    I was 432. Had surgery on January 30th. Down 100 lbs

  • Started at 496. Day of surgery was 456. One year post op was 200. Now nearly 3 years post op I am 190 to 195. Can the sleeve work for higher weights and BMI? It did for me

My highest weight was 376, day of surgery I weighed 355. Current weight is unknown because I am waiting to weigh in, surgery was Oct 31st.

I've never been up in the 300's but I was heading in that direction. Congratulations for getting into the 200's or heading towards it. I think you're TWOnderful!

I started at 354. Had mine Oct. 16th. Down to about 327ish in almost 3 weeks

I was 347 at my highest, 327 on surgery day (October 24th). I'm. 310 today! I can't wait to be under 300!! :)

Hi all..I just started pre op diet today..surgery is 11/19..I'm 336lbs now hope to lose at least 10 lbs before surgery..I'm so nervous I won't be able to follow this for the next 2 wks:(((

Awesome! I started at the same weight. I'm almost three weeks out from surgery. It's hard to imagine that this could be me in 8 short months. What's your meal/exercise strategy?

I work out several days a week. I'm a distance swimmer and am getting that back. I also play soccer once a week.

As for food I just try to eat healthy. When I snack I try to drink Protein shakes. I don't get enough Water in so I am working on that as well.

If you want more specifics let me know! I'd love to help you out!!!

Thanks Nikki if I think of anything else I'll reach out.

I'm feeling emotional and it's probably because I've broken up with candy/cake! This pre op diet isn't easy..ugh:(

Still working on it
