January Sleevers ❄️



Recommended Posts

To me, 6 months PLUS is where the rubber hits the road.

Will I lose the last 50 pounds?!!?!!

Can I keep my sleeve weight loss program going and NOT start get sloppy with food and attitude.

Because I feel really good at 63lbs lighter my crazy mind keeps saying...maybe this weight is good enough. IT's NOT. I didn't do all of this to give up at the half way goal!!! Or get sloppy and gain some back! Crazy monkey mind gets me in trouble if I'm not paying attention.

Besides being in a staff for 2 weeks all is well.

Best too all of you and keep up the good work.

Questions 1. Has anyone tried or found a decent ice coffee? 2. Anyone having skin issues ie.my pimples are back and when I go in the sun my skin looks leathery n peels never had that before

.

I have iced americanos with some half and half all the time. Yummy! I haven't done anything blended yet. Feel like it's all sugary and full of air...

Your poor skin!! I have the normal sagging and aging that comes with loss but not the peeling. I would def ask your dr about that!

GOAL 140

Confession: I've only exercised once since surgery. I'm my own worst enemy sometimes. I know I could see the scale move down a whole lot faster if I would only get moving!

I'm not sure if you're asking about Protein Drinks or not but have you ever tried Syntrax Nectar lattes, Cappuccino flavor? It's awesome! and taste pretty much just like those Starbucks Frappuccino mocha bottles you get at the supermarket I make mine with cold fat free or 2% milk yum yum and sometimes I blend it with ice... :)

where do you buy those they sound yummy! I was originally asking about coffee for days I can't seem to wake up since we can no longer drink pop.. But I'm all for learning about good Protein shakes, I haven't found one that I like yet

you can find Syntrax Nectars at GNC and Vitamin Shoppe but I get my Protein from mybariatricpantry.com it's cheaper and you can also get sample packets to try them out first before buying the big tub :) so far the syntrax flavors that I like to mix with milk are the cappuccino, fuzzy navel, strawberry mousse and double stuffed cookie and the ones I mix with Water or juice are the syntrax ice tea (I mix that with diet peach Snapple or crystal light ice tea flavor) and the lemonade... if you want some links I'll be happy to send you some... also that website has some other coffee drinks from different brands that I haven't tried yet, that you can drink hot or cold and they have caffeine.. I just got a sample one so my husband can try it so well see how that goes :)

Iced coffee...I have it everyday! I order it black with sweet n low and bring my own Sugar Free/fat free international Creamers with me. I love the chocolate almond biscotti or Carmel delite. During the holidays they also have pumpkin spice. Yummy and basically carb free. Only 15 cals-keeps me honest and on track.

      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... :(
