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

congrats

I just was sleeved 12/15 but I am still well over 300. I started the 2 week liquid diet at 365.

I'm looking forward to getting back into the 200's.

Look this is her husband you better not be trying to get with her

I'm not playing with you

Who are you talking to? And what are you talking about?

JEEZ. Someone is awfully insecure. I hope Amy is ok.

My wife does the same thing so don't run your mouth

It appears that Amy's husband has hijacked her login. That is just creepy. If we wants to participate on this board for support with his weight loss surgery I suggest he get his own login.

I also hope Amy is ok.

Has anyone had their surgery in Mexico?

Has anyone gotten pregnant after getting their sleeve

Do a search on this site. Many people have gone to Mexico, there is a whole subforum related to surgery in Mexico.

As to pregnancy after WLS I don't know if there is a subforum but I have definitely seen posts.

I am very similar to you in size. I started at 364. I am 5'8". I had a sleeve July 30. I am down 104 lbs. Did you have surgery already? And if so did you have the sleeve or bypass?

Had my sleeve, hernia repair and gallbladder removed Tuesday at 314. My highest weight was 497 back in the 1999. 5 days post op and I am 307. If you follow the high Protein & vegs the weight will come off. I hope to be well below 300's before I return to work late Feb.

Just a quick check in. I haven't been around these parts lately dealing with a few issues. I'm experiencing my first stall. The thing is I'm not panicking. I knew this was going to be a longer haul for me. My allergies are acting up. In an attempt to wean me off of the need for daily antihistamines which 1)slow down the metabolism and 2)cause hunger, I am trying to switch to a low histamine diet. That would be a challenge for anyone, but when you add in needing increased Protein as a bariatric pt, being a vegetarian AND being allergic to seafood, it's even more challenging. To top things off, my car died so I haven't been to the gym and I'm not a very motivated home work out person. Unfortunately if I don't work out, I don't lose.

I'm not discouraged. I went from a size 30/32 to my current 18/20. I have lost 115lbs. I was fortunate to not have any stalls for the first year post-op. The rest is on me. I'll adjust this latest health challenge or stay on the antihistamine. There is a new supplement I may try and my allergist will continue to monitor that.

I just want to say to those of us who have more than 200lbs to hang in there. Be patient! Follow your program. I'm still food logging and still drinking my Water. 115lbs is an adult person! That's an accomplishment! The rest will happen once things normalize for me.
