October Sleevers



Recommended Posts

My surgery was Oct. 30 and I've lost 32 lbs. I haven't run into any stalls yet but I also don't have a ton to lose so mine has been slow and steady over the last 2 months but I am really happy.

Mine has been 35 pounds. With a one month stall, today the scale dropped a pound so just maybe it's over? My surgery was Oct 27th

I was a band to sleeve conversion on October 14th .. I was already down 130lbs when my band slipped. I am now 6 months out .. And have no idea what I am doing . I measure every meal .. I count calories every day . I have not lost any weight since December .. I have gained 5.. Actually I fluctuate between 175..180 .. I worry constantly about stretching my sleeve .. I do not do any carbonation .. Some days I have what I feel is restriction other days I feel none . I just need to know there are other people out there like me. I get hungry I wasn't lucky enough to never feel hunger again . I miss my band but feel like it was more of a crutch than a tool. I feel more normal with the sleeve yet scared I will gain my weight back . Any help or encouragement would be welcome

@@Melissayw816, wow we have similarities. I've lost 59lbs, Goal is 140 but honestly, I may have to tweak the weight as time goes on. My goal is a size 8-regardless of the number on the scale.

I, too, have been struggling with a stall off & on for the last 1 1/2 month.

I'm going to try to work out four days a week and definitely reduce my carbs. Hopefully, I'll see the scale start moving again

I was sleeved 24 October.

HW-397

SURGERY-363

TODAY-258

GOAL WEIGHT 245 OR 14% Body fat or less.

I am doing well working out getting my Protein and fluids in. The only thing is I can not eat ground beef and still working on the tempo at which I eat.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
