Any sleevers scheduled for late July?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Monday and I'm doing great. They all thought I was a rockstar at the hospital, I even got discharged a day early. Yesterday was my first full day home and I drank 3 shakes and got in 58 grams of Protein. I thought I'd be struggling more! Today I'll get 62 grams in. Yesterday I even drove my 3 kids to the dentist 20 minutes away. That was a bit much and I probably shouldn't have done it but I did. Today I had to bring my daughter to and from camp, but that a shorter drive in town. I'm pretty pleased with how well everything is going!

My hubby and I were sleeved on the 27th. We are doing great. The drains get removed tomorrow. I am down a total of 33 lbs and hubby is down 34. All the gas pains are worth it! FYI, the losses are total since pre op. We've lost about 10 post op.

I feel so much better today! I'm refusing to weigh myself until August 28th which is my 1 month sleeversary just because the numbers on the scale does something to me mentally whether I lose a lot or if I stall. I let those numbers affect me so much that I'd rather just gauge my success with my cloth size and activity levels. I wonder if theres anyone here like me when it comes to the scale?

1 week post-op and I feel awesome, I'm about 98% back to normal. Down 14 pounds since surgery and 39 since starting my journey. :)

You guys are doing awesome and that's great! Physically I think I'm doing fine. The incisions feel a lot better and it's getting easier to swallow without that burning feeling all the way down. But I don't feel like the eating is progressing at all. Because I was throwing up in the beginning I was told to hold off on the Protein Shakes for a few days, so it was cream of wheat and broth only. Started Protein yesterday, but most disappointing is I don't think I've lost ANYTHING. My husband keeps telling me to be patient, it's only been a week, but I can't help but worry that I'm going to have the same struggles as before. If yon haven't figured it out yet I'm very emotional and a bit of a worry wart :-)

      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... :(
