Any February 2014 Sleevers?

I think I might be scale crazy too. I don't lose steadily. I'll lose 3 pounds 1 day and then nothing for 2 days. Is that typical?

I'm happy to report that the scale finally moved 1.2 lbs in the last two days in the right direction. So that puts me at a loss of 26.7 lbs since surgery day. YEAH!

Also excited about a bm but I spend a lot of time in the restroom.

I'm down 20 since Feb. 11 and 13 before surgery. I guess a slower weight loss compared to some, but I really notice the difference and so do others. I know we will all get there eventually. After six weeks, I still feel huge bouts of fatigue. Anyone else still have this going on?

This is what is for lunch. It's good. 13 grams Protein 160 calories and a nice variety. Found them @ Walmart. Very quick to grab & go. A must try!

I bought one of those but not sure if I'm supposed to eat the nuts ( 4 weeks out)

Curious about everyone's stats and what their surgeons and nuts have said about it. I'm 6 weeks out and down 35 pounds..at first my surgeon said it was too fast but it's slowed over the past 2 weeks and my nut said I'm right on track...how about you guys? How many weeks out and how many pounds lost?

I'm 6 weeks out as well and down 35 too keep them coming off is all I can say

I had a bittersweet NSV today. My wedding ring set has been sliding all around my finger over the last 2 weeks or so. To keep from loosing them. I had to wrap medical tape on the back. Going to have to figure out a better way to deal with this. I don't want to take them off. Will need to have them resized once I loose all my weight. But not sure what to do for now...

      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!!
