Congrats. How much did you lose? I also just hit 6 months and lost total of 75 lbs. Haven't lost in 4 weeks anything but being I have never had a stall I ain't complaining. I'm pretty close to my goal anyway.

My breaking point was all my medical issues due to being almost 300lbs. Borderline diabetic, severe sleep apnea, high BP, achy body all over. I couldn't breathe just putting on my socks. Now 4 1/2 months postop all all of my issues are GONE. I am a new man. I have lost close to 70lbs total. Have never thrown up but like others have said. Listen to your body and the warning signs when you get full. But for those of you who are nervous or scared or not sure what surgery to get, the sleeve is the way to go in my opinion. It will change your life and yes it's not easy at first but as time goes by it gets better and better.

Sleeved March 1 starting weight was 290 surgery weight was 273 and now I am down a total of 52# at 238. Wow! All my previous medical issues are gone!! Can eat just about anything now and I love how the sleeve forces you to have portion control. No more overeating like I use to.

Hi all I'm getting last minute second thoughts. My Surgery is Thursday and getting nervous. I know I am making the right decision but I guess I'm just nervous. Never had surgery before. My wife was banded 10 years ago and still at times throws up her food. So the sleeve is what I'm choosing.

I second that. It was obviously a joke and in no way we would act like children racing with our lives! Crystal I understood from the start what you meant.

You got a deal Crystal lol. Good for you and it's nice to know someone else is losing as quickly as me. And we're the same date sleevers too!!

Wow finally I see someone post amazing numbers similar to myself. Honestly I was getting nervous that I was losing too quickly. I am 3 weeks 5 days out and have lost 40 pounds but that includes 17 from preop liquid diet. I am trying my best to get in all my protein but it's difficult. Haven't started solid foods yet. Is your 80 pounds from after the surgery?

3 days post op and came home yesterday. Had no nausea. Worst thing for me was the dry mouth. It was horrible. Down 23 lbs already since start of liquid diet.
