  1. Let me know when you decide on a meetup, I live in Channelview and I am 4 months out, and you can never get too much support.
  2. I am also 50 pounds down, I am very happy with the surgery and everyday is a different challenge to get in food and protein, but if I log I am moore successful. I am exercising and I feel great when I get it done. I know I don't post often but I do read, and that has helped more than ever.
  3. My name is thefighter2, Please add me as friend.
  4. Hello I would love to be a part of a support group, I was sleeve on Sept. 13th by Dr. Yu at TLC Surgery. They offer a monthly support group but you can never get too much information and support.
  5. I had my surgery on Sept 13, and I am on the soft diet phase. I am trying to get use to this phase but I need to learn to slow down when I eat. Does anyone have problems with hunger early in the morning? I feel hunger when I make my early morning wake up run to the restroom. But other then these two minor problems I feel great and I am so thankful for my sleeve. Contragulations to all who have joined the losers bench and also to all waiting for a spot.
  6. I am 5 weeks out also, I have a problem with eating too fast and hunger at 3 am, other than these issues I am feeing fine. I am on soft food and really enjoying this stage. So if anyone has any suggestions for these problems please let me know. I appreciate my new sleeve and I enjoy the daily changes I have with this new tool, and the fact I have several people I can communicate with that all started in the month of September. I am happy I am a member of the September Spitfires.

This is incouragement for me since I will be sleeved on the September 13th. and I will have to remember that this is a tool and if I don't use it right it will fail me.
