You're looking great girl! Congrats!

How's all my sleeve brothers and sisters? I was sleeved on 11/6/12. I reached goal at the one year mark and have been maintaining for the past 4 months. Anyone have any maintenance tips to share?

I'm still here as well....busy enjoying my life as a skinny person! Reached my goal about a year after surgery and have been maintaining ever since. Life is so good. Every day I wake up and hope it wasn't a dream. I feel so blessed. I'm now walking between 6-8 miles every day and feeling stronger and healthier than I have felt in a very long time. I thank the good lord for this miracle that has come my way. I was sleeved 11/6/12 with a starting weight of 251 lbs. and wearing a size 22. Now I weigh 125 and wear a size 6. Good luck to all the new sleevers. Hang in there for this awesome journey. It was worth the discipline. And to my fellow vets, if you're not at goal now, you can do it!

Hi everyone. I'm 14 months post-op and struggle with maintenance. My iron has been very low and I take an iron supplement every night. Escape, can you tell me which iron supplement you take? I have tried several and they really tear me up. This thread is a great reminder to keep up the supplements. Thanks all.

Congrats on hitting goal! That's wonderful

Dang this cold, nasty weather! Another grocery store aisle-walking event for me tonight. If this rain keeps up the grocery stores in my neighborhood are going to post pictures of me and label me a food stalker or something! LOL Got in 8 miles today for a total of 73.5 Sent from my iPad using VST

Now that really is a bummer! I did that one time too many so I bought the fit flex and it stays on all the time. On the down side it sorta looks like a home arrest monitoring device! Sent from my iPad using VST
