6 months post op



Recommended Posts

Yesterday was my 6 months post op. I had the gastric sleeve on July 18 and have lost 72+ lbs already! (Only allowed to weigh myself 1x month per surgeon so last weigh in was December 5) I think I would have lost more had there not been a lot of medical issues going on with my boyfriend but I stayed on track and am so proud to be where I'm at already! I don't think of it as dieting anymore, it's my new lifestyle and I love it! I feel so much better and am so happy I made the choice to save my life and have this surgery! I can't wait to see what a year or more brings my way, I'm truly blessed and lucky!

Here's a picture of comparison from last year, August 2015 and yesterday , my 6 month post op!

For once I'm so proud of myself! As tough as it was, it was worth it and feels so good to be healthy!

That's awesome. I was sleeved on the same day as you. As of this past week I'm down 70 lbs exactly. Only a few more lbs to go to reach my personal goal. I've already surpassed my surgeons goal by 13 lbs. I can't wait to go back and see him again and show off what an amazing job he did to help me

      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... :(
