I was sleeved April 11th by Dr Balsama at Kennedy hospital. He is amazing and I had such a positive experience from start to sleeve!

I also do the Maxalt dissolvable and love it! I suffer from migraines also. I am also on topamax as a daily preventative.

He subject says it all! I finally after almost 6 months broke down and shopped for new clothes! Everything I bought is a size 4!!! 97 pounds down and 21 to go to goal! I started at 228 and now weigh 131! Thank you God for VSG!

Love it!

I eat what I want in moderation. With that said, If I am craving something, I take a bite. I don't eat the entire thing, just a bite or two usually does it. I don't eat breads anymore but that is something I know is a ” trigger” for me. I loved breads. Ate bread with every meal. Now yes I will take a few bites of pizza or have a half piece of wheat with my egg ON OCCASION, but not daily and it is not even monthly and if I didn't take a bite of something I would be living on a diet and go nuts and eat so much of it I would be sick. I chose healthier options like sugar free fat free yogurt instead of a hot fudge sundae and I get the smallest or kids size when I want ice cream.

I went on our annual vacation last week..... I was able to do roller coasters with NO problems! I fit in them all! My son who is 8 was so happy I went on rides with him! He said it was the best vacation. I cried. I did walk alot though which to me was a NSV as I was able to keep up and at times was able to keep going when everyone needed a break!

I am down 40 pounds and roughly 8 weeks out. I am losing from the top down. I am down a few chins and hey.... I have a neck! Lol. Seriously though, be patient. You will start to lose inches fast as soon as your body adjusts. You, like myself, were probably wearing the wrong size clothes and they are just loosening up now. Be patient! Great job so far!!!!! Congrats!

Haha. I love it and just realized I have it! I have been sitting on the edge of my chair away from my desk, now I know why people look at my weird! I also don't believe people when they tell me I am small! I just recently let go of my size 22/24 to size 16 clothes! I asked my husband to put then in the attic since they didn't fit, when he found out they were bigger and not smaller, he walked them to the curb!!!!.I flipped until he made me step back and take a deep breathe and look at myself. I won't be needing them anymore!

I would love to eat a hot dog with bun this summer.!

I had my first nsv yesterday. My jeans that I had been wearing were way to big so I dug out the jeans I knew were in my closet ( the I know I will fit into these again one day jeans) they had been there for 3 YEARS! I put them on..... TOO BIG, they were falling off! They are 3 sizes smaller then pre surgery size! It felt amazing!!!!!!!!

I saw the surgeon today and he said I was doing great. down 22 pounds and was cleared for trying new food. Said to start small and work up to chicken, meats. I an so thrilled and so was he with how great I healed and how great I feel!
