August sleevers progress



Recommended Posts

I am closing in on the 100# mark as well, but still have a ways to go...currently at 221. The weight loss has REALLY slowed down, but it is still happening. I have been pretty sick with a fever for the last week and have no appetite at all. It just feels like I can't fit anything in that sleeve. Not sure if this is normal. I can barely get in a little Protein and a string cheese, but that is better than junk.

I am loving the sleeve and still kicking myself for not doing it 10 years ago when I first looked into it! I am glad I came to my senses. Hope everyone else is enjoying the journey! :D

How many lbs are you loosing a week ? Having a few hard weeks ... Same weight week 3 ...

1.8-2 is what I average. I tend to lose nothing for weeks and then lose 3-5 lbs all at once.

Woman me too! Exactly the same here. Kinda bound around a few pounds for a few weeks then lose 2-4 pounds then starts all over again :) Good to know I'm not alone.

Good thank you for the reply ! So atleast I know it's not just me :)

No it's not. The closer we get to goal the harder it will be for the weight to come off. I also learned at my local support group that months 6-7 we plateau or have a stall. Hang in there!

Got on the scale today and 147 . 1 pound to go until 100 pounds gone. I am feeling hip, ribs,elbow bones that have been gone for so long I forgot what they felt like. I would like to ask what does one do to Celebrate 100 pounds gone?

LOL I am worried the tattoo might weigh too much and I hate needles. I just ate 735 cals,and 70 gms of Protein, and carried on as usual. Thank you for the idea though.

Weigh too much? Lol!

Guess what? I HATE needles (injection, blood draw, IV) but tattooing is different, it is beauty. BUT I do understand they aren't everybody's cup of tea!

Have you figured out anything else (other than the meal)?

Sky diving? Dance classes? New jewelry?

;o) a really important milestone deserves a significant celebration, IMHO...

We have similar stats... my surgery 8/8/13.. HW 225 SW 213 CURRENT 145-148 Height 5'2

I couldn't be happier. . I think my body has settle and stopped losing at this point or maybe the weight loss has slowed down that I don't see a difference in the numbers for like 2 months but I'm not discontent I am actually happy at my current weight.. do you still want to lose more?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
