This will be the best decision ever! Your only regret will be why didn't I do it sooner:-) Trust us, just relax and enjoy the new adventures ahead of you.

Happy holidays my fellow sleevers. I am in need of some motivational help. I have gotten off track and having a difficult time getting back on. I have stopped going to the gym each day, I have stopped eating healthy, and eat more than I know I should be eating. I have not done any permanent damage I am sure, but will if I don't find the motivation to get back. The holidays have been especially difficult for me since my children were not able to come home this year. I do not think I am eating emotionally but who knows at this point. The hurt feeling of eating too much does not happen too much anymore:( This is where you all come in, words, prayers, you name it I need it.

Hi Lowe1961, I am at 8 months next friday and loving my sleeve. I am down to 118 pounds, exercise 4 to 5 times a week, have run my first mud run, and so happy.

So excited I could cry. As of today I am part of the 50 pound club. The funny thing is people kept telling me I was too thin to have the surgery and only look to be about 30 pounds overweight. Well here I am at 50 pounds off and feel crazy wonderful. 122 has never felt so good.

Tell the truth and the longer you wait the harder it will be.

remember less in makes for less output:-) Me and 4 of my friends who had the surgery only go about 1 or 2 times per week. Make sure you are drinking Water.< /p>

Stay away from TV, in your pre op status it seems like every single thing on TV talks about food. I actually started going for walks. Hang in there you can do it!

oddly enough, if you eat a little more the stall will pass. Your body gets use to the amount of calories you put in it. Try eating a little more for a couple of days

Damn plateaus, suck @$$ I was stalled for 3 weeks at one point. I am now under my goal weight at 123 pounds. I do not think I will lose any more at this point but only maintain.

Deek- i'm not sure what you are saying is unsafe? Drinking something warm makes perfect sense.
to vomit on purpose is what I was referring as unsafe. I do thinking drinking something warm should be the first choice

Try something warm to make it disolve faster. I do not encourge this, but it is super easy to vomit if it has not been too long since you swallowed it. I do not make it a practice to do this but every now and then as I try new stuff and it does not agree I will. Now don't everyone rush to tell me how dangerous it is, I have only done it 2 or 3 times in 6 months.

A friend who had the surgery in January is having a similar issue. Her doctor has told her she has lost weight too quickly and a nerve is being pinched. She was asked to slow down on the exercising for a few months.

When you start out at a lower weight you will lose at a slower pace. You can expect about 2 pounds a week until you are about 10 pounds from your goal then it slows down to about a pound a week. I started out at 172. I exercise daily, eat well and now weigh 124.

Way to go! Hearing stuff like can be hard to believe, but it is true. Awesome job andycharris!

Keep track of everything you eat. Even on the bads days when you want to conveniently forget;-) You will be shocked to see how quickly you can 10 calorie yourself up to 1600. I agree with Grannyk, learning the good habits now will be better so you are not so emotional after the surgery. You are going to LOVE the sleeve, it is a life changing event.

Good morning! I started using Nioxin products and Biotin a few weeks after my surgery. I personally have had great success, My hair that fell out (and it was a lot) has grown back!
