JULY 2014 SLEEVERS GROUP



Recommended Posts

Okay guys, I'm staring to panic. Before surgery my greatest fear was that it wouldn't work. I am 4 days post op and still weigh the same as when I went in for the surgery. In fact I came out of hospital pound or two up. Not looking for drastic loss, but some kind of downward trend would be welcome. Even a few ounces.

DONT Panic. You are still swollen from surgery. Wait a week.

Thanks AnnieRichards. My experience had been so easy compared to others that I don't really feel like anything has been done except the liquid diet is no longer debilitating like it was pre op

So far so good-I'm still only on Protein shakes, Water, and broth. Yesterday I got 45 gms of Protein in and about 50 ounces of Water. I am not moving on to any more liquids until I get my protein at 60 and liquids at 64.

How is everyone else doing with the protein?

I'm 3 days post-op.

July 24th here! I had my last meal out at a restaurant tonight before I start my pre-op diet, so weird to know I won't eat this much ever again.

That's my date too!

Mine's the 22nd. I did the same thing I had a food funerals for my favorites. Like bacon. Fried chicken etc. I have finished 1st week of pre-op diet. Only thing I can say is you really miss chewing which is good I guess because after surgery I will have to chew everything a lot!!!!

Stay away from those damn evil scales! Don't worry about it at all. My Dr told me they pump us full of liquids and I could be 10 pounds heavier. It will come. I know it's been a little over a week for me, and the swelling still is t gone all the way. You will be fine, just stick to the program. :)

I need to do better on water and protein. Been experimenting with different shakes. Need to get more water. Loving the broth and Popsicles for sure.

      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
