Monday June 8th is the day!

I'm scheduled for 1:15pm on Monday. A little nervous but ready to go. Anyone have a suggestion for a good protein shake/brand? I really have never liked any I have tried over the years. Also anyone else having one next week?

Just checking in. Stalled out this week, but inches are still dropping. I feel like I'm 100% healed no restrictions except food of course. About to begin new workout plan to begin toning and hopefully tightening those loose areas. Keep up the good fight everyone!

Hi Mel,

I am same day sleeve and I am starting my exercise routine as well. I am down 38 pounds and I stalled this week, so time to change it up! I have eaten a variety of foods, my favorites right now being seafood and for snack teriyaki turkey jerky. Can't handle rice, bread, raw salad type veggies, and sugary things...my only cheat thus far has been a small margarita made with lime crystal light and tequila (tiny amount) and it took me 4 hours to finish it!! Still working it, good to hear you are too...

Checking in .... how is everyone doing?

I'm doing well, getting in 60-80 grams of protein daily & about 800 calories. I'm pretty much eating 4 small meals a day. Also, I got released to go back to the gym and to lift as of last week, so I've been to the gym daily. Feels great! I've had a bit of a stall, stayed at the same weight for a week, and the two weeks before that I had only lost a pound. That being said, I'm just trying to exercise and eat right, drink my water and get my protein. I'm feeling good though. How about you?

Sounds like exactly the same except I haven't been to the gym but I am walking. I've only lost a couple of pounds in two weeks too. Not stressing yet though lol.

Had a check up today at seven almost eight weeks. I'm at 307 down from 365 in April. I feel fantastic and I'm actually out of clothes to wear! I eat three meals and two snacks depending how long my day is. I walk and have been doing farm work about to begin swimming and elliptical at the gym. I drink water constantly! Keep a cup with me full of ice and water. I'm glad I did this. Hope everyone is doing well too! Oh I'm down 8 pants sizes since surgery.

Hey. I was sleeved on June 8th here in New Brunswick, Canada. I have had no issues at all with surgery and recovery, and have no issues at all with my Protein intake with the help of the Premier Protein bars and shakes (1 a day) and Water can at times be a struggle, but always close to where I need to be.

Having a hard time with all the comments as I have hidden behind my weight so long. I am only weighing myself once a month so I guess today is going to be my second weigh in. I'll post my current weight and stats soon.

Glad to have found this thread!!!

Go June 8th Sleevers!!!!!!
