Sleeved July 4th. I've lost 21 pounds so far: from 199 to 178. Currently at a stall

I'm 5 weeks and at a stall! So annoying, but I expected this from what I've read on the forum.

I was sleeved July 4th. I've lost 21 pounds so far. Not complaining... But I think I've hit a stall at 5 weeks.

I was sleeved on 7/4/12 at 199lbs. Today I weighed in at 178. So far so good. Still feel a bit tired and weak.

My bmi is almost 34.4. I am scheduled for surgery next week. I am self-paid. I am so ready for this. I have struggled with my weight forever. Long family history of diabetes... For me it's only a matter of time if I don't do something. I'm a size 14/16.... Goal is 135 pounds, I'm 5'4". Will keep you updated! I have seen much success with lower bmi sleevers, we just seem to lose at a slower pace.

noelria, I saw a previous post of yours. I too have a lower bmi of 34.4, not as low as yours though. My surgery is the first week of July... Good luck to us.
