Any APRIL SLEEVERS? Let me know your progress !



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved April 22 and I'm down 32 pounds. Over the last week I've hit a stall and I'm wondering what you all do to move past that. I walk 30 minutes every day' date=' but still not able to get all my daily Protein in. I can't tolerate the shakes, so any advice would be appreciated![/quote']

I was sleeved 4/22 and lost 19 pounds. I'm at a stall right now.

For those that wrote that they are a slow loser: Have you measured yourself everywhere... arms, thighs, chest, hips, waist? I bet you have lost a lot of inches. In the beginning I didn't notices too much weight loss and went from a size 22 to a loose 16.

I really don't even wight myself because I know it is discouraging and I don't need the added stress. I just wait until I see my NUT or Dr. to find out. I put a piece of masking tape over the # part of the scale and wrote down my goal weight. This means every time I step on the scale when I look down I will only see my goal weight and I am forced to wait until I see the DR to find out or I can bend over and rip it off (which I know will be wrong and defeat the purpose of the tape).

Try this trick it really works and lowers your stress. Also I posted a blog about helping with plateaus/stalls. If you think it may help try adding a slice of avocado with every meal for 1 week and see if the scale moves... Here is the blog and the science behind how it works. http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/blog/2407/entry-6047-avocado-can-help-with-stalls-plateau/

I was sleeved April 26th, and I'm down 25 lbs. My weight has been stalled for a week now. Good to know I'm not the only one.

However, stay encouraged. I think I am still losing inches.

I was sleeved 4/22 and only lost 15 lbs. Have been stalled for almost 2 weeks. Curious to know what was everyone's starting weight? I had my lap band removed and was sleeved the same day. I'm starting to think my doc just removed the band :(

I as well was sleeved on the 22nd and my lap band removed... My 1st post op appt. 4/29, I was down 14lbs and I haven't weighed myself since. I feel like I haven't lost any... I too am starting to feel like he just removed the band and is some how trying to use mind control on me.. lol

I was sleeved on April 24. I'm a sllllowwww loser, but o date have lost 10 pounds. I'll take it, since in the past it would take me two or more months to lose that. Slow and steady wins the race.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
