Weight Over 200 Pounds Do U Wanna Check In Daily?



Recommended Posts

Current weight 252 obviously I have more weight to lose. Anyone want to start a private group that will check in daily and not be embarrased to share their struggles and the journey to get below 200?

Nope didn't start the group didn't look. Like there was much interest. I will join if someone starts it. I am 255 with a long way to go and struggling right now. Could use some consistent chats with folks in the same situation

Hi I'm 9 days PO, and just wanted to know if there is any support out here. I'm doing it all alone and needed some encouragement. The lbs are falling off as I'd hope or at the rapid weight as must sleevers in the beginning. Any suggestions?

Hello, I had the sleeve done on Dec 18th and I feel great. I started my journey at 373 over a year and a half ago and just couldn't seem to lose the weight. I got down to 339 and then moved. I started therapy and she suggested looking into weight loss surgery. That was in October 2013. I decided to do it. I quit smoking and saw the Dr. At ky 2 week pre-op on Dec 5 I weighed in at 356. I lost 23lbs pre-op and as of today I weighed in at 309. I did almost nothing the first 2 wks but walk about 20 min a day. At my 3 week check up I was cleared to start doing exercises just not any abdominal yet. I have been in the gym 5-6 days a week. I did my new personal best on the treadmill for the mile yesterday of 19:10. Before sirgery it would take me nearly 30 min and I would have to take breaks. I feel fantastic. I also do about 3 miles on the incumbant bike and do weight training as well. I am so excoted to be startong ky new life. I am 44 and wish I had done this years ago. I did not grow up overweight but have been carrying this weight for over 20 years since having 4 children and a horrible accident after my first 2 were born. I have major issues with my leg from the accident so losing this weigjt is a god send for me. I have had no issues this far with neausia or vomiting. I can swallow my Vitamins with no issues and i shoot for 80-100 grams of Protein and get all my Water intake in. I wish all of you out there doing this a safe, happy and life changing journey.

I had my surgery 12/11/13 I was 288 pounds. I have battle multiple hospital admission due to dehydration and nausea. Also had problems with starvation acidosis. Ended up finally be dilated due to the narrow from surgery. I need some support having doubts but I look at my son and realize the reason I did this was to be around for my eleven year old. Today I'm currently at 228 pounds at 6 weeks out am I still losing much to soon.....

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
