August Sleevers-How are you doing??



Recommended Posts

Congrats on your success! I was sleeved in August and am down 115 lbs still have a ways to go but feel so much better. A few people have commented but I think some are hesitant to do so which is fine by me. I struggle to see the change in myself. It’s all in my head. I haven’t bought new clothes fornfear a smaller size won’t fit. Makes no sense I know. My clothes are much looser but still wearable... definitely a journey we’re on!

Dumping syndrome usually happens when taking in to much sugar, or more common with a bypass. Definitely try looking for a diffrent weight loss Dr and get another opinion, could be something else going on. I switched Dr's myself after 3 months of seeing my initial WLS, i much happier and have better support from my weight loss /family physician Dr. Goodluck to you😊

My doctors basically gave up on me. Can't get an appointment. I weighed roughly 330 at surgery and am about 300 now

What r u eating. U should try Dr. Duc vuong on YouTube.he has been more help for me then my Dr. He suggest a green smoothie for Breakfast a big ass salad for lunch minus croutons and bacon bits and bad cheese and a sensible dinner cutting out most carbs and I live by that and it works well. If u need Snacks try a handful of almonds or a small piece of fruit give it a try for a week and see if it budges..save my name we can talk about it maybe u just need support.

Is that enough Protein? Are there Beans in the salad or something? Can you put Protein Powder in green smoothies?

Yes u can use Protein Powder in your smoothie and u can put chicken shrimp fish or steak on the salad just portion controlled.beans yes just not that nonsense like tortilla strips and croutons and cheese and bacon bits. He has a salad cook book on Amazon and a wonderful fb page and I live his utube videos

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
