I'm so very desperate to have my weight finally start with a one before I turn 30 on 12/31 - currently stuck at 223 that I'm thinking of going back on pure Protein Shakes for awhile to maybe jump start the weight loss again?? Any thoughts??

How long have you been sleeved and How long have you been "stuck" at 223? Loss does slow down after the first 6-12 months. If you are less than 6 months out, I think you can hit onederland by then no problem. If you are further out it may take a little more doing and either bumping the exercise or focusing on protien could help.

Hi I was sleeved 7/12/13 I am not sure how your weight loss is going but I have noticed that when I get my Protein Shakes in I lose weight! When I don't have them I stop losing!! I find I am generally between 30-60g a day!!! Hang in there!!!! Also if you are doing cardio great if not it really helps with the weight loss!!! You can reach your birthday goal!

I started this journey at 284 so I've lost over 60lbs but like most people at one time or another I've stalled with any real weight loss and I feel myself getting more discouraged as the days wear on and I keeping bouncing around the same two three pounds. I'm not crazy about the shakes but I happen to have a ton left and I thought it might be an idea. I don't drink them anymore because I do not like how many calories they add

Eat like you are on Atkins Phase 1... I am 5 months out and was losing too slowly. I did this last week and also upped my exercise ( just a bit) and lost 4 lbs. cut all carbs, just a bite here and one cracker there gets me in trouble!

      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!
