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.

Thanks! I had my 3month check up just this past Tuesday & now weigh 232! I'm still sleepy when I get home from work. Not sure why. I upped my B12 to 2500mcg & felt more energy for about a week. Now not so much. :(

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
