CONGRATS YOU LOOK WONDERFUL AND YOUR PROGRESS IS VERY INCOURAGING. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND CONTINUE TO ROCK YOUR SLEEVE

you go girl, you sound like my sister Nikij she is 13 days out and this is her first day back to work. she was release the next day after surgery and when she got home she was walking around fine in minimal to no pain. when her home health aid came she was amazed at how well she was doing. you sound like you are on your way. you were able to fix dinner for your family five days out and that's super. you sound like you are well on your way to a speedy recovery. congrats on your sleeve and keep up the great recovery. make sure you keep us posted.

this is not true i know one of the contestants personally and what you see is what it is. the weight loss is in a week. the only thing that we do not see in it's fullness is how many hours they spend in the gym. they actually spend 8-10 a day in the gym instead of the few hours we see. that time is broken up all during the day but it that much time. this is why they loss the weight that they loss.

hey it's been a while since i've seen you post. you were one of the first people that i read up on when i joined this site about a year ago. you look fabulous. i am 22w and if i could get to a 16w someone would have to slap me. mind you i'm no closer to my sleeve but that's a whole other story. you have done a great job i surprise that you want another 50lbs off. you look fine just how you are today. continue to work your sleeve girl you have done fantabulous.

hey everyone it's been a minute since i've posted, i've been here reading and seeing the progress of everyone and you all are doing great. just wanted to drop a line and let you know my sister Nickij is doing well. she had her surgery yesterday and she's been up walking around and doing just fine they are even talking about releasing her today. i just wanted everyone to know she made it through and on her way to the loser bench. everyone keep up the great work, continue losing, and work your sleeve. oh in case you are wondering i'm still no closer to my sleeve but i stay hopefull i love my sleeve family thickinphilly

kala may i ask, why are you so depress. does it have anything to do with being sleeved?

hi guys i have not made a post in quite a while i've been reading about everyone and you all are doing great. i'm still no closer to my sleeve but that's another story all together but i digress. i just had a general question for everyone, how much weight did you lose on your pre-op two week liquid diet. i'm just curious any feed back would be greatly appreciated. every one keep up the good work and i am so happy for everyone progress.

you go girl you have exactly a month and your new life begins. you will be on the loser's bench in no time. Gods Blesing be with you.

carmen good luck on the surgery tomorow, may God bless you and bring you through a speedy recovery.

hi guys thickinphilly here it' been a while how is everyone doing? i have been reading the updates as well as some of you guys frustrations. keep up the good work and remember even a half pound is a loss. any way i don't know if you guys remember my story i'll be brief. i was going through all the motions to have this wonderful life changing surgery and then it came to an abrupt stop becaue it would have cost me over $7000.00 out of pocket expense and this is after insurance. Any way one of you guys gave me a link to a site that give grants for WLS. i entered in all my info but i have not heard from anyone at the time all the grants for 2010 were depleted but i was told once grants for 2011 were opened i would be notified and like i said i have not heard anything. i can't remember the site if one of you recall this please send me the link again so i can reach out to them again and if not i'll keep pluging until something happens. thanks guys and everyone keep up the great work and i will one day be were you guys are. i will not stop until i have my sleeve.

awe guys you don't know how much your comments mean to me. i do feel like we are a family and i enjoy sharing my day to day with you guys. like most of us i have struggle with my weight for over 25 years and some time you need people who know how you feel first hand. well to i lost 15lbs which is a drop in the bucket when you need to lose 100 but i'm greatful for that little bit. my new gym will be open in a week so i'm really looking forward to that so i should have some progress reports for you guys weekly. everyone have a great weekend
