Any APRIL SLEEVERS? Let me know your progress !



Recommended Posts

Hit my goal weight yesterday :D . I'm down 95 pounds from April 1st 2013. My Surgery was April 30th. I have been very active cycling, running doing whatever I can. I plan to run my first half marathon with my wife in April 2014. I continue to seek new ways to be healthy. I am strongly considering a vegan or vegetarian diet, I am still in the information gathering stage though. I look forward to the next cycling season and plan on doing a century ride(100 miles) every month during the summer. I couldn't of did this without my VSG, I am very confident that this would have not been possible without it. Now comes the hard part or so I tell everyone who asks. I frequently tell people that loosing the weight has never been difficult for me to do, but the hard part is maintaining my ideal weight and health lifestyle. Below is a photo collage I made last night of my transformation. Although this forum has not been a regular place for me to visit I am thankful it is here for reference. Good luck everyone.

Sleeved April 18. Down 71 lbs. If I exercised more, I'd be closer to goal. I am inspired by those of you, who've already adopted an exercise routine. I'm still learning to use all of my tools. Still i'm happier than I have been in YEARS!

My surgery with Dr. Aceves was on April 25. I was 214 the day of surgery now I am 137. I am a completely different person. I am soooo happy that I had it done, I just wish it had been years ago. It makes me mad to think of all the good years I missed out on.

I'm down from 284 to 169 pounds. I'm 4 from my goal weight. I went from a size 24 and can squeeze into a 5 now. My only regret is not having this done years ago. I already bought a bikini for next summer but I'll have to wait until I can get this extra skin removed. There's probably close to 30-40 pounds of skin alone. It's gross but worth it.

      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... :(
