Hi all, my surgery date was 4/13/2015, SW 270, CW 206.2. This is a journey as things are different in how we eat as well as what we eat. Good Luck all.

I was sleeved 4/6/2015 and have lost 60.9 lbs so far! I had a few "stalls" but thankfully got past them and moved on. I feel SO much better physically. I have a lot more to go but happy with my success so far.

Sleeved 4/13/15. 268lbs at surgery and now 209 lbs. however had lost 28 lbs before surgery. Very slow process. I thought the weight would come off much faster.

Sleeved 4/27/15 weighed in at 255.7, current weight 219.2. Slow loser and happy! (I hope that means I won't need plastics ☺️)

I'm only getting in about 3oz of puréed consistency food, less if regular consistency. Therefore, I drink most of my Protein.

I think slower is better. I had the Lap Band before for almost 8 yrs. i lost 22 lbs per month, but Im now convinced that I was dehydrated. The sleeve uas been slower but I feel like it will stay off. And I am smaller now than I was at this weight previously. And my face is much thinner than it was at this same weight and my skin is tightening up. Honestly....i havent been excersising. I will work on that!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
