Wow! Congratulations!

I have had three C-sections and each one was very painful for me. The sleeve was a breeze for me compared to the C-sections...also you aren't caring for newborn after the sleeve!

Short fat Italian girl here too! lol Right before surgery my 11 year old son was trying to make me feel better and said....'Mommy you are not fat, just a little husky" (bless his heart) but I hear you when you talk about growing up in an Italian family and loving to eat! It is not easy losing weight when life revolves around food! Anyway, I hope everything continues to go well for you, and congrats on the weight loss so far!

Thanks for all the kind comments everyone!

I know what you mean! My snoring was so bad, that I woke myself up all the time and also woke up with sore throats. Losing just a little has already helped so much. It will happen for you too!

That is a great way to look at it! Thanks

It's not a huge amount yet, but just 33 pounds off and I'm feeling so much better. I have a lot more energy and losing some in my neck has helped my snoring issues so much! I had fun shopping with my daughter and bought a new outfit for her graduation ceremony

I'm 5'1" and 6 weeks post op. My Starting weight was 216. I lost 11 pounds Pre-Op and 21 pounds since surgery. My Surgery was April 18. I stalled during week 4 and 5 but the weight started moving again after I dropped my carb intake.

This was a very informative video. Thanks so much for sharing.

I feel exactly like you described here and I'm praying it shuts off at two months. I am six weeks out now. I also have to get too bed early enough so I can fall asleep before the hunger hits. I'm taking PPI's twice a day. It is a real physical crazy hunger feeling. I'm just hoping that the hunger hormone goes away like it did for you.

I like the chocolate spledor.

Did you try the Unjury? I don't really like too many of the shakes out there, but I do like unjury mixed with skim milk. It tastes like chocolate milk and doesn't have a bad after taste. Hang in there!
