I was sleeved on April 10, 2013. Starting weight (before the 10 day pre-op diet) was 253. Current weight (as of July 17, 2013) is 204. Losing weight consistently at 2 lbs per week. Need to do better about nutrition, especially getting all my Protein in.

Sleeved 4/2 starting weight 238.8. Current weight 164.2. I feel amazing. 5"2 and I was in xxl shirts and 42 mens pants.... Now I'm in medium shirts and 33 pants!! Total loss 74.6 lbs! It definitely slowed down but I'm ok with that! I work out 4-5 times a week....just started lifting! Oh ya, I haven't weighed myself in two weeks but going to weigh in tomorrow! Love my sleeve....not to sound corny but I think it saved my life!

Don't be discouraged. I started real heavy. Your doc is right. I think you've had tremendous success!! :)

You should not be discouraged at all as I believe your loss is really good. As you likely know we all lose differently. For some reason I have never had an issue with dropping weight rapidly but I would never stick with it. Thus the reason for getting the sleeve. A few years before surgery My latest attempt on my own I lost 130 and was at 418 before that loss. I then started gaining again because I started eating whatever I wanted again. I had gained back to where I was pre surgery at 362.

So don't worry you are still doing an awesome job!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
