8 months out and thankfully the loss is slowing not that there is much left

Losing slow and steady to not losing for a long time. I'm okay with it I feel the slower the better for my body. It will come off eventually

I'm at 5 months and have noticed my hair coming out, a lot of hair. I won't cut it it's very long. I had very thick hair before and no one has noticed it's thinner. Hoping it stops soon.

That is amazing work..

June 4th today I hit the 70 pounds lost mark very happy. yesterday I had an angus burger for lunch only took me two hours to eat. but it has 25 grams of protein.

I plan on going horseback riding..

Amazing!!! thankfully he came through and look at him now!!

Congratulations!!! You look marvelous...

very impressive results.. wtg!!! looking good

you are an amazing person to be able to open yourself up to so many people. I applaud you and your decision to be open and honest. Though I do tell anyone who asks what I did, don't know if I could ever have the sack to do what you did.. you are awesome!!!

Congratulations!!! How exciting that must have been to see the scale this morning... Good job !! what a journey you are having.. keep it up and you will be at goal before you know it.

I forgot to add, to Towel statement, With towel around waist jump up on bed while wife is watching you, rip towel off and...... "HELICOPTER"!!!!!!!! Okay now that was funny..

My favorite thing is getting on the scale and it's almost always a lower number than the day before., My least favorite thing is still exercising.. ugh...

Congratulations!! Glad you are feeling better and stay on top of those dr. appointments.

hello and welcome.. I had my surgery done in June. I didn't have to jump through many hoops to get approved but it still took a year to get done. Hope you don't have to wait that long. I would suggest you read as many posts in here as you can to help you with any questions you may have on your journey

What an amazing journey you arehaving. I'm so very happy for you and please keep us updated as you are an inspiration to us all..

I had my sleeve done at Kaiser east LA I only had to drink liquids the day before and nothing after midnight.

I chose the sleeve over RNY because of the mal-absorbtion issues. Also I didn't want my stomach floating around in there like an abandoned spaceship.

Congratulations!!! I hope time flies for you..

Congratulations!!! welcome to the rest of your life may it be filled with joy and happiness..

My advice would be to relax and enjoy the experience. the nurses and doctor will treat you like a celebrity. They will make you feel comfortable and when you wake up you will have some pain and discomfort but every day it will be 50% less. You will be starting the best half of your life and you need to make it an exciting journey and let the scary stuff go.
