6 MONTHS POSTOP WITH PIC! (X POSTED)



Recommended Posts

Today marks 6 months postop. It has not been easy mentally or physically but I'm doing it slow but sure!

When I met my surgeon 8/29/12: 332

When liquid diet started 11/25/12: 315

Day of surgery: 300

Today: 241.9

Im officially down 90lbs total!

Thank you all for your support over these last 8-9 months. I wouldn't have been able to do this without this group or my other online groups. You guys understand what we go through as supportive as my family and friends are and want to be. They still don't get it. Thank you again!

I love seeing success stories. I'm 5 weeks out today and have such a long way to go, but, I have lost 61 total and I know it will all come off.

hi there!

a typical day in my sleeve:

630am Protein shake

930am cheese stick

1130am lunch - today was 3oz cooked cod loin with 3 stalks of asparagus

2pm greek yogurt - i eat the yoplait greeks, i think they are 5oz or so

6pm dinner - toinght will be turkey w/bacon meatloaf and some veggies

i havent done the pouch test but i would say with dense Protein and some veggies my sleeve holds about 6oz. if i eat slider foods i can definetly eat more than that.

That sounds pretty good, nice normal lunch & dinner. Not that Protein shakes are abnormal or anything. I love Cod, I could eat Cod & Broccoli every day.

Thanks for sharing. You are doing awesome.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
