Surgery date 5/22

Pre-op weight 364.5

Day of surgery 347

Weight today 322

Loss 42.5

So happy with the sleeve! Have had no intolerances with very little pain or discomfort and have followed doctor's orders to a "T". Started weight training at the gym last week and will start Water aerobics next week.

Had my 6 week post-op appt on the day following a 3 day stall only to discover that I wasn't eating enough. I was getting the Protein and Water in but only 600 calories. Nutritionist explained how important it is to take in calories with appropriate carbs and fat to loose weight. After adding whole wheat flat-out bread, whole wheat pitas and whole wheat skinny Buns to my diet (along with veges) and increasing calories to 1,000 I have lost 6 lbs this week. I don't expect it to continue at that rate but it sure feels good!

My husband was sleeved 3 wks after me and he is doing well. I will be glad when we can eat the same things though!

Good luck to all. Keep the motivation coming!

Yep! Sounds like you need an antacid or up your dose. Just spoke to my nut yesterday about the same prob.. Call your doc or nut, it'll help.

Try taking antacid 30 min before you eat. I take pepcid 20mg twice a day.

I'm not doing so well despite good restriction Ive only lost 29.5 lbs since surgery on May 21st. It's difficult to see how michigan slower I'm losing compared to most of you. I can't really exercise due to knee problems but I'm crawling along anyway.

      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!!
