Hello Im a young 54, i had the sleeve done 6/19/13, last time i weighed myself I lost 78 lbs feeling pretty good. So far i had two dumpings once when I ate a little too much watermelon and another time i had some food that had sugar in it unknowing, hopefully it won't happen no more, I eat about a 1/2 cup at each meal time. Best thing i feel full when I eat slow, but thats hard to do at times, but Im trying. Been out walking at a park with nice paved trails just wish someone out there lived close by and needed a walking partner, I live near Scottsburg Indiana. Good luck to everyone on there venture in weight loss.

If you want to know just ask, I was sleeved 6/19/13 the first 3 wks when healing was going on was hard to eat at first, specially the next day after surgery and being on mushy foods was hard but it beats the liquids diet, you will go through some emotional changes but it gets much much better; don't doubt yourself one bit and stick to what your goals are. Don't listen to other ones that says diet soda is fine, run from those people... Good luck to you and Jan/ Feb will be here soon enough. Hang in there

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
