Just weighed myself this morning! I am down 60 lbs!!
I started my pre-op diet on May 3rd at 282 lbs. Surgery was on May 16th and I was at 262 lbs. I am now at 222 lbs. !!! It seems unreal. It hasn't even been six weeks since surgery. I am still in the healing stages and getting used to eating regular food. I am learning to love my sleeve more, even though I still throw up most days...like all over the parking lot at McD's yesterday. I only had 1-2 ounces of a fruit and yogurt parfait (way more carbs than I usually eat, but after a long day at softball, that is where the family wanted to eat on the way home). I then had a few sips of an iced latte (sugar free vanilla), and I guess I had too many sips. It was very good, but when I got to the car, out it came, unexpectedly. Weird. I am glad it happened there and not in the restaurant. Eek!
OK, onward and downward :) This is an exciting journey!!

Fantastic weight loss Sandy!
I just started pureed and I'm finding I have absolutely no problems with liquids, they go down very easy but man, add a little texture and all i can eat is about 1/4 cup of whatever. i lost 8 lbs first week and that was with a starting weight of 164 lbs. In comparison, I was 213 lbs at surgery for lap band and first week I again lost 8. I am very happy right now. This sleeve will get me to goal and help me maintain...something my lapband couldn't do!
Sandy THAT rocks!
