  2. I was sleeved on 4/11. My children and grandchildren live in another state. I have had my 3 eight year old grandsons visiting all week. I never realized how hard it is to stay on schedule with vitamins & protein with others to tend to. These very active boys eat constantly & it is mostly junk. In the past I would have eaten every time they did. I have managed to eat my healthy portions of healthy food but I admit it has been hard!! I am in awe of those of you with families to cook for & shop for. I dont know how you do it on a daily basis.

  4. I lost 12 the first month. Low BMI to start & i had lost 40 pre surgery. Very happy with results. I had surgery on 4/11 & I am down 76.
  5. It sounds like a vitamin deficiency to me. Have you had post op labs done yet?

  9. Thanks!! I have really missed wearing it. It should be ready Friday.
  10. I haven't been able to wear my wedding ring in about 5 months because it started getting too big. I took it in today to be resized. It is going from a 7-1/4 to a 6!!!!! I am shrinking all over
  11. Kiki-- the bras are Enell & they are amazing. I have worn them for 8 years.

  15. thanks hm734!! I absolutely intend to! Lissa... I knew there was a name for it..LOL I always stick to the plan
  16. I am 8 weeks post op (4/11) and seem to have hit a stall again. I have been at 156.5 for about 2 weeks now. Can't help but worry because this is the weight that my body has stopped at everytime I have lost weight in the past. I am not freaking yet...LOL.. just a lil nervous. I plan to keep on keepin on and hopefully my sleeve will take care of me this time. Don't get me wrong.. I am thrilled and totally satified with my results so far... I just want past this brick wall. I am so close to being OVERWEIGHT.. I can smell it. (8 pounds).
  17. WOWZERS!!!! Big Congrats!!! Keep on keepin on!!
  18. Patrick you are doing great!! A huge NSV!!

  21. I can totally relate to this. I find that as a rule women are vicious and jealous creatures. I was sleeved on 4/11/12 and began my journey in Sept 2011. I have lost 80# since then. Last week my husband and I saw a couple that we haven't seen since last fall. The woman said " I didn't recognize you with short hair." Seriously--- my haircut is all that is different?? My husband finally saw firsthand what I had been telling him. You just have to ignore and keep on keepin on.
