The months after surgery dropped about lb a day, then started having some stalls but noticed my stalls would be from not getting all my Protein in or week before pms. Other than that I also notice if I exercise a little each day that helps stalls

Hi everyone I'm 12 weeks out and lost a 46.6lbs since surgery. I feel great and have more energy. I've been walking/jogging and I just received a Fitbit. So if anyone is interested in being my friend on it let me know. post-248633-14419415252531_thumb.jpg

First pic is the day before surgery, second pic is 1.5 months out and the third is 3 months out.

Sleeved Jume 30th. HW 200, SW 200, CW 160. Starting with a low BMI (33), I thought it would take 6 months to lose 40 pounds, I did it in three and I'm thrilled. I've been walking, jogging, then running since two weeks out and that has made a huge difference. I had shoulder surgery and haven't been running for a few weeks, so now I'm in my first stall. I'm ok with it because I think it's getting my body s chance to gear up for the last 30 pounds. I plan to be downright skinny and buff when I'm done!

I am doing well. I am slow, but steady so that makes me happy. HW 286- 3/15, SW 265.8- 6/15/15, CW 230.6 10/12/15. My doctor is very pleased with my progress. I started out at a BMI of 49 and am now to 39. I joined my local YMCA and now do Water aerobics and lap swimming.

My surgery was on 6/15, so I'm nearly 4 months out. I thought for sure that I'd be a slow loser (having a "lower" BMI to start with), but so far I've lost 80% of my excess weight. I'm doing Water aerobics/toning classes 2-3 days a week, and walking my dogs or gardening a couple days a week. I'll probably have to start kicking up the exercise for these last 20 pounds.

Seeing everyone else's success is a great help as I was feeling somewhat frustrated with not knowing if my weight loss was slow or typical.

June 16th surgery date in Mexico.

HW 325 SW 298 CW 234.

I feel great no more back or knee pain, stopped snoring so my wife is pleased and much better energy levels. post-255499-14446603789241_thumb.jpg

I use MyFitnessPal (free app!) it really helps me keep track of macro-nutrients and calories. I also use MapMyWalk. They really help keep me motivated :)

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
