4 months and a day, and down 75 pounds!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 4/9/13, and as of today, 8/10/13, I have lost 75 pounds! (counting pre-op)

It feels like it's been longer than that, but in a way it feels like surgery was yesterday, too.

I'm wearing clothes I haven't worn in over 10 years, finally cleaning my closet of stuff that's too big (had no idea I had that many clothes, or that many sizes!), and even had to bring my riding boots to the shoe man to have them made smaller. (I looked like a kid clomping around in Daddy's boots!)

Still have a long way to go, another 7 pounds and I'll be halfway to goal!

Yaya, that's amazing! i'm 3 1/2 months out and i'm down 63lbs so i can definitely relate. It's a great feeling being on the losing end. Wish you well on the rest of your journey :)

Now that you're four months out, how are you eating? can you give me a day to day regimen you may have?

Don't really have a regimen, I mostly concentrate on Protein and fluids.

Breakfast can be eggs & bacon, cottage cheese & fruit, smoothies, Protein shake, or Kashi & almond milk.

lunch and dinner vary widely. chicken and ground turkey mostly, but if I'm not home, I've had everything from seafood to pork tenderloin to filet mignon. Sometimes with veggies, sometimes I'm full after the Protein. Every now and then I've had dessert.

I just try to practice everything in moderation, which is so much easier now with the sleeve!

      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!
