How did you get a nut? My doctor doesn't have one on his staff. Even though I haven't lost weight, I did lose 4 inches off my waist...so maybe the verdict is still out. Who knows?!

Yup, you just just described me as well! I was also sleeved on 8-14, but I never lost that much. I've lost 37 pounds and haven't lost more since before Christmas. It is very discouraging and depressing.

That happened to me too. I got pregnant 10 years ago the same way. Nothing is perfect and I'm happy things turned out the way they did because I have a beautiful son from it!

I was sleeved 8/14/12 at sisters hospital. Where are you having your surgery? I feel my weight loss is going at a snails pace but what can I do...at least I'm losing weight and losing inches. Tell me about your friends that had the surgery. Have they lost a lot? I'm down 37 lbs to date. Good luck in your journey!

I teach Spanish (7/8 grades).

I am a teacher too! What grade do you teach? Best of luck to you.

What have you done to lose so much so quick? I was about the same size you were and I'm no where close to that. Your pictures motivate me! Please share your secret! . How old are you if you don't mind me asking.

Ok, I'm going to go big for this one now that I'm catching the challenge early on. DOS: 224 Current weight: 187 Goal: 165 Good luck everyone! Time to hit the gym!

I missed my goal by 2 pounds BUT I lost 4 inches off my waist! Oh yeah!!!!!!

Bekkamy, Dr. Carauana is absolutely wonderful! While I was in the hospital, I was supposed to have a leak test before they could increase my food I take to a liquid diet instead of just plain Water....Dr. Carauana ordered the exam in the morning and then he can back late afternoon to check up on me and asked how did my test go. When I told him I was still waiting, he made a phone call and literally 10 minutes later I had my test done. I was in hospital 2 1/2 days and no complications. He's an excellent doctor and I trust him wholeheartedly. My best to you tomorrow!

I missed my goal by 2 lbs...oh well next time.

I saw a commercial and it asked what have you gained when you lose weight? I am gaining confidence, positivity a new outlook and a second chance at life. Happy new year year to all. Much love and success in the new year to you and your family!

August 11th...it's slow but at least I'm losing inches

I was sleeved 8/11 at 224. I'm 5'4 and am down to 187. I've lost 36.6 lbs so far. But I also discovered today that I lost 4 inches off my waist in a month. So that's a good thing!

I'm confused...I have been reading that as a new sleever we will have restriction and will eventually can eat what we want. I'm almost 5 months out and still feel restriction but I wonder if our stomachs were made smaller, once the restriction part goes away aren't we still limited to food intake? And how are you able to get in 1800 calories in?

I'm down 37 pounds. I feel like its not a lot in comparison to others, but I'm getting a lot of compliments on how I look so where I don't see it, others do! D.O.S. 224 Today 187

I'm rivera822

Good luck on your journey!
