Calling all august sleevers



Recommended Posts

Had my sleeve done on August 29th so happy I can eat Now! I have lost 20lbs and I'm so happy, but I feel like maybe I'm eating to much or not enough sometimes.. My Dr. Does not have me counting calories yet, he is just wanting me to make sure I eat a lot of Protein.< /p>

I know everyone's diet is different, but it still leaves me with concern. What are you eating?

How is your weight loss going? Now my pre-op weight was 244 and didn't loose any weight before surgery, so I'm was thinking I should of lost more by now... what do you think?

I had surgery on 8/24. I lost 17 pounds during my two week preop diet and then 13 pounds since surgery. I have been in a three week stall. I am not losing anymore weight even though I am following the diet and walking a mile a day. It has me a bit worried.

I have noticed I'm losing an average of 6lbs a week, but I also didn't lose pre-op
A lot of others have said give it time and stay off the scales, but it's so hard

Everyone is different. I say stick to the plan and don't go near the scale. I got sleeved on August 28th and had some hummus and salmon today (my first real food since pre-op) and it tasted like it was made at a five star restaurant! I had it with three crackers and I'm going to try some veggies with it next time.

I was sleeved on 8/10 and have lost 20 since surgery also. Had a couple of stalls here and there but stuck to the meal plan. I found it easier to focus on the percentage of weight I lost towards my goal(vs. total lbs) and it helped me alot. In our shoes any weight loss is good. Just try your hardest to hit your protein and Water goals!

Sleeved 8/10/17 HT: 5'2
HW: 214 SW: 212 CW: 192 Goal: 155

Update ... sleeved 8/29/2017
HW 272 SW 244 CW 221
Still loosin but so slowly, not counting calories just making sure I'm eating Protein, protein, and more protein.
I still feel like I'm not losing much, try not to get depressed but it's really hard.
Seemed like after losing the first 20 the next 3lbs was harder to achieve. I can't give up!! I know everyone is different, but I would really like to know where the end of August to first of September of 2017 stands with their weight loss.

      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!!
