Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 3/14/16. Just had a follow up with my surgeon. Down 60lbs and 25% to goal. He said I'm right where I should be. I go back in 4 months.

Hey friends I was sleeved 3/15/16

HW: 320

SW: 286

CW: 223

So 63 pounds since surgery but 97 pounds from the start of my journey on January 15.

This past month has been so slow and I'm getting upset with myself. My goal is between 145-150.

Any recommendations and I am on it. My surgeon requires 96 oz of Water a day. That's been hard and I don't get there. I get close but I don't get there. How do you all keep up with your Water intake?

You have dropped almost 100lbs in 7 months! Let that sink in! That's amazing! You are doing great. You will continue to lose but it won't be as quick as before. have you been exercising ?

Maybe I should see a NUT. I've just been going by what my surgeon advised. Do you use an app to keep up with your meals? How many grams of Protein do you average? Sorry for all the questions.

No prob about the questions...we are hear to support each other. I use My fitness pal to track my Water, exercise, and food (caloriea, carbohydrates, Protein, etc). I love my NUT she has been so helpful and supportive during this entire process. As for protein I get about 80-90 and sometimes a little more. I am really into running (which makes me hungry) so on my longer says I eat a little more. What are you averaging?

I am released to start exercising again. I wasn't before now because I had a broken back in the past and I had some muscle issues I was working on before. So without exercise that's not bad! You're right. However, I've always been my worst critic. I can do this I know I can.

Uh yea! You look great! I see a huge change!

Keep it up! I keep body measurement also, it helps when you don't see the pounds coming off but the inches coming off! I've been terrible myself about working out. I think I'm finally comfortable getting a gym membership now.

You look amazing!

Yes, I am definitely slowing down. I wonder if it will speed back up again? I hope so because all my efforts seem to be for not.

      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!!
