Approx 1 year weight loss.



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Still getting all my pre op appointments out of the way. Just curious though... I know it’s different for everyone but how much weight have you lost one year post op?

Also, when did you see your weight stall in the beginning, if at all, and how long was it for? What did you do to overcome it?

Interested in hearing everyone’s story.

I started my journey at 397 with my six month pre-op diet program. I lost 99 pounds during that six months, weighing 298 on the day of surgery. I met my goal of 180 at 1 year and 4 days post-op, meaning that I had lost 217 pounds total and 118 pounds since the surgery. I lost another 7 pounds over the following few weeks and have been maintaining at 173 for several months now.

I actually went below my goal weight but I had some complications due to Strictures. I lost 132 in 6 months but I did gain up to 125#'s now I weigh 124 to 129#'s. Which I will take in a New York minute. I got to my goal and haven't lost any more. I didn't have but 1 gain when I was 6 months out. I jumped on my scales and it said I was up 1#. The next day (after I was so bummed) I lost 3#'s. I think when you are told about the Honeymoon Phase being your 1st year to 1 and 1/2 is not always the bottom line. It may get harder to loose as quickly but from seeing posts on here there are many thatkeep losing longer. Good Luck on your Journey!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
