How are you doing on your diet. Happy 2months I lost 51 lbs now.

Ohhhh wow!!! I didnt even realize it was the 24th yesterday! I gotta take a new pic! ;)

It's so good to hear from you! Iam at a stall right now. I haven't been working out like I should. Only 2 times last week. I did however get the new Beach Body "T25" & watched it tonight & I think it's doable!!!

I am at 242-243lbs bouncing back and forth the past 2 weeks. (Had my cycle in there so that's probably why the stall)

Since day of surgery, I am down 40lbs.

How are you? I find it hard some days wanting to eat.

Can't wait to hear from you!!!

Hi,

I was sleeved on June 26.

Highest weight -341

Current weight - 292 as of last week.

I still struggle with vomiting and nausea, and had to have 2 scopes, but getting better. I have lost a total of 49 lbs as of last week. I don't get on the scale every day or week. I am focused on getting my eating and drinking goals down. Congrats to all of you June sleevers.

I just ran out of shake mix this morning! I need to get more, that's what I have for Breakfast then around 10:30 I need energy and eat a Quest bar. lunch is usually 1 string cheese & a yogurt. I drink lots of crystal light. dinner lately is another Quest bar, or some other meat (tuna , chicken) or small portion of whatever I fix for hubby & son.

As far as exercise, I haven't been doing it 5times a week like my P.T. recommended. I've only done 2 times a week of the tread mill walking for 30 minutes. I get my ♥ rate up to 131.& I feel like I wanna die when I am done.

My hips have been killing me for two weeks now. Not sure why, but I go for an adjustment tomorrow. Hope that helps me feel better.

I probably need to eat more, but I have no real desire. I am allergic to fresh fruits & fresh veggies do it's hard. I have to cook them. I do Protein first and then not hungary, so I don't even bother to cook any.

What about you?

This week I've walked one day. It was the first week for the kids to go back to school. My husband will buy a treadmill for my birthday. So I can get my exercise in.

Hello fellow 40-somethings! I'm 43 and was sleeved on July 24th. I have lost about 40 lbs so far and even though I can get my Proteins in, I do still struggle to get my 64 oz of fluids in daily. I do exercise about 3-5 days a week by either walking or using my Wii Fit.

I was having the same issue. I now do a Protein shake for Breakfast, Quest Protein Bar around 10:30 am, lunch I have 2-3 oz. Of chicken breast or tuna, dinner same thing or another Quest bar Snacks I eat 2-4 sugar free popsicles. For fulids, I've been able to get the minimum 64oz this way. I know it's not ideal, but I'm not getting dehydrated anymore & I'm able to get Protein in. Weight is dropping now since i've been doing this . HW 301 SW 286 CW 234.

Hello just wanted to check to see how you are doing. We should be getting close to our 4month post op. How is your Protein intake?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
