Mens Stats

Hey guys, so glad I found this forum!

I'm 3 weeks post-sleeve and have lost a total off 38 pounds, (13 pre-op, 25 since surgery)

I am 33 years old, 6'2" and started at 381.

How much weight did you guys lose each week on average your first few weeks and months? I just want to get realistic when I get on the scale, but I also want to make sure I'm getting the best results possible.

What do you guys eat daily? I'm a little nervous because I feel like I am already eating at the top of my doctor recommendations and worried about old habits, but I'm eating soooooooooooooooo much less than ever before that also feels silly.

I'm drinking one Protein shake a day and then getting the rest of my protein from mashed and puréed foods. (yogurt, white fish, tuna, hummus, Beans, eggs)

I'm trying to only eat 3 oz of food in one sitting, but occasionally I get slower to 4, then other times I can only finish 2 (my dog is ecstatic at the amount of extra tuna she gets when I don't finish)

Anyway, any feedback, stats and tips would be great! It's hard to find men who've gone through this!

    First off everone is different and you can't compare what one person has lost to another. If you are losing and things are going well - then things are working for you. That being said... I am 90

  • Hello I was sleeved on 122/23/13. Start weight was 362, surgery weight was 320 and current weight is 223. I am 6'3 and 58 years old. Eight months post surgery. I am eating 1100-1200 calories a day.

Today is my one year anniversary. I am 67 years old and 6.0 feet tall. I weighed 351 going into surgery and now weigh 203, a weight that I have been maintaining for the last 2 months.

I eat 6 times a day and am still eating only protein, veggies and fruit. Carbs have not entered my body since my sleeve. I am probably eating up to 2000 calories a day.

I speed walk (I need 2 knees replaced) 4 to 5 miles 4 to 5 times a week and now box twice a week. Average of 500 to 600 calories burnt.

I weigh my self daily in the morning and am still afraid that I will gain weight (maybe that's a good thing).

My sleeve saved my life. All of you hang in there.

Thanks for sharing and congrats on doing so well. I am 3 days post-op and really am looking forward to that type of progress

Good stuff. I thought I was really kicking but and I still feel I am for me. Some of you guys though are really getting after it.

I think I better get some consistent exercise started to kick it up a notch. I wanted goal weight at a year but now I am getting greedy and would like it by around February or March.

Good job guys. It is good inspiration to see the stories.

No worries Bro! I think u are making some good progress in barely 3M! I'm wanting to get to the gym so I can lift, but I can't yet. I'm focused on how the weight comes off. I want quick results like most of us guys, but I want to be toned up with it.

I have a one year goal like yours. Hell, anything below 300 will be a HUGE milestone for me!!! Lol! #SLOWnEASY
