August Sleevers-How are you doing??

My doctor told me not to even think about my weight, just to concentrate on Water, Protein, Vitamins, and exercise. I understand his point, but seriously--I own a great scale and I did this surgery TO LOSE WEIGHT. Of course I'm weighing myself daily!

I know, right? I have an opportunity to get to my goal weight and I'm not here to scréw around. I have a Withings Smart Body Analyzer and I track my dietary intake using MyFitnessPal. I know it's easy to lose sight of the big picture when weighing one's self daily but it adds data points on the bigger picture as well. Those data points, like this surgery, are tools to cracking the problem of my weight loss.

I don't get a chance to move on to solid foods until the six-week point.


35 days is full solids for me, which is in about 2 weeks. The mash was all soft foods except the turkey but it was fine bits that I chewed well.

Getting in liquids is a daily struggle but my biggest problem is constipation!

I tackled my Constipation after not going for maybe 3-4 days. With the uncomfortable gas from surgery I wasn't willing to also be bloated cause I couldn't poop. Did 3 days of Miralax and have gone every day since.

It's rough out here in these streets lol I got sleeved august 7 and finally on soft food stage. I ate literally one scrambled egg with cheese and was like I can't eat anymore it's a little depressing not gonna lie

I tried that but unfortunately my body didn't like egg, but I've been having cottage cheese for the last 3 days, baby food chicken is decent if you are on the run 2.5 oz add some salt and ready to eat, I get full usually after 1.5 0z love it. Today I had stake, I was not able to finish the 2 oz, so happy before I need it a 11 oz steak to be satisfied.

I had my surgery on August 15 and I am down from 202 to 181 but the weight loss has stopped and that scares me and I am trying to stay on track with my Water and Protein intake and I walk. But premenopausal issues are kicking my behind and it's so stressful.

So happy I've taken this journey ... best decision I've ever made. :)

I have the opposite problem, the physical sensations of hunger are gone for me. I have to be very intentional about eating so that I get the proper amount of Protein in.

Since last Sunday, I've gained. In fact, today is the only day in that time period when I've lost. I'll see tomorrow if that trend has broken or if I will continue to gain.

      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!!

      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
