December 2018 Sleevers!

  • Popular Post

Hello everyone!

I was approved a few days ago (after only waiting a week) and received my surgery date for December 12, 2018! I chose this date out of the few offered to me because I am currently in college and I will be able to finish up my classes prior to the surgery (which was a huge worry of mine.) It's about two weeks before my birthday too!

Anyone else scheduled out in December?

  • I had my surgery exactly a year before you 12/12/17. Hopefully it's a lucky date. Almost a year out looking back it was an amazing life changing decision. I was just over 300 lbs to start and by June

  • So man. What a day! Surgery went text book according to surgeon. I was on the table for 55min. He told me it was obvious that I had rocked the preop diet, as he could have likely done the surgery with

I lost 9 pounds the first week post-op, now stuck zzt the same weight for a week give or take a pound. It's annoying, but it's a long journey.
Same here..20 pounds first week. Now stuck. But I dont really wanna loose it too fast..so in happy
Glad i'm not the only one dealing with a stall.. I lost a good bit the first 2 weeks, and then hit a wall for 2 weeks, and only lost 3# in 2 weeks, and then yesterday I lost 4# overnight.
Isnt it crazy how we loose weight overnight...what happens?

Finally broke my mini-stall. I lost .8 pounds when I weighed myself this morning. At least I got under 222!!! I'll take it!!!

U go Boy!!. I need to buy a scale. I dont have one yet. I just watch my clothes get looser and looser.

Starting soft foods tomorrow. Down about 21 pounds in 3.5 weeks. Been kinda stuck since starting purees hopefully it lifts soon. Doctor said average is 4-6 pounds a week still hitting that average so I'm okay. See him again in 2 weeks so here's hoping go down another 10 or so before then.

December 6th. I had my follow up with my nutritionist on the 18th and she moved me to purees and said do that for 2 weeks. I've been able to keep everything down that I have tried.

I'm in Delaware, Canned tuna, chicken and salmon, egg salad. I made a buffalo chicken dip and I ate for a while. I think tomorrow just going to try a plain piece of chicken with some seasoning, but i can have cooked vegetables. I know protein first, but excited to try new things.


Ughhh the protein is something I cant handle any more...disgusting and it takes me FOREVER to drink...ohhh gurl yess. I love buffalo dip. I've been craving buffalo chicken wings..so maybe I'll make that for the new yr

Also I baked a piece of fresh Whiting fish last night and ate that..sooo DELICIOUS and soo much protein. Because I cant drink my protein I'm trying hard to eat it. I'm in philly

Yes i am 100% over protein drinks. I've recently been just doing the premier protein water. Which i am handling better as in taste. The milky consistency was starting to make me sick from having to drink it basically for 5 weeks straight pre op and post. Yes buffalo wings are my favorite. my stomach is okay with spice so I have also been pureeing the can chicken putting some seasoning on it and a little buffalo sauce ( Buffalo wild wings sauce) and it has been heavenly. Only been getting 1-2 ounces but thats okay. Today i have white chicken chili for lunch at work. Someone just came around and said im ordering everyone lunch since we have to be here pizza or salad, and i proudly said no thank you to both. Not allowed salad until 6-7 weeks.

Go gurl @no to both. I have a sweet potatoe for lunch. I'm gonna give the premiere water a try because I'm over the whole protein drinks and powder. They make me gag. I love spicy foods also. I cant wait till I can have some sushi

I’m brand new to this site as of today. Had my sleeve on December 4th. Have lost a total of 38 lbs as of today. Can others who had surgery on the 4th share their weight loss? Thought it would be a little faster.
