Jessielynn

Thanks for asking! I got to my surgeon and he said an abundance of scar tissue built up on my main incision site! I ended up getting 5 shots in and around the site! Still feel some pulling but the pain is now minimal! Yay

The last few days ive been having severe pain in my main incision site! I'm 5 months out and haven't had a pain there before, but it started coming an going but it's so severe I double over. Has anyone experienced this before? I thought they were healed by now! Please help

Happy anniversary nov 5 th sleevers!!!

My preop weight was 240 I am currently 188 and in a stall, but very happy with my sleeve!

Oh and my hair is falling out like crazy!!!! Kinda getting concerned, but I knew coming into this, it would happen! Lol

How is everyone doing???

Everyone is looking great! I am finally in onederland ...whoo.hooo I am at 193 with a starting weight of 240!

This is the best thing I ever did! If I new how to post a pic from my iPad I would;)

I'm 5'5 and I started with my weight at 240. I was sleeved on Nov 26' date=' 2012,. My current weight is 191.My goal weight is 130. I'd love to be 120-125..... That is the weight I look best at, and what I weighed when I got married.[/quote']

I was also sleeved in nov! I was 240 at surgery and am now 194! Our stats are very similar

I did curves for a few months and never lost any weight! Lol, I feel like I'm getting a much better workout at the gym! Just my opinion

Thank you surgery was 10/25 so like 11 weeks from the post pics. I'm 5'4" was 230 now 180. I actually haven't gotten into an exercise routine yet at all. I'm an ER and ICU nurse so I have an active job but after I put in my 13 hours I do not hit the gym or run. I plan on starting to walk n jog (not really built for speed lol) in the spring once it's a bit warmer. I used to be very athletic so I've had alot of muscle hiding under my fluff for years n now it's starting to peek out again.

We are not to far apart:) I was sleeved 11-5 at 240 and today I weigh 199;) I do kickboxing every day for an hour.

I hope to look as good as you at your weight;)

Down 50. Had my VSG done 10/25/12. 30 til goal

You look awesome! When we're you sleeved, what are your stats? do u do much excersizing?

I am 5-5 and my goal is 150! Yes this is probably a higher weight for my height but I chose this goal because I don't EVER remember weighing that much! I'm sure it will change as I get closer but that's my reasoning!

Oh and by the way, lol, I've had many goals leading up to that weight, my very first goal was to weigh less than my husband, that was a glorious victory;)

Hi just wondering who was sleeved on the fifth of november there height what there weight was and nw is? So I'll go first!

Onederland is so close! I've been here for a couple weeks so I'm dying for a big loss

we dont have a costco here Baton Rouge.

You can also get them at SAMs club!

I went to Maurice's this weakend and they were having75% off there clearance! I got 2 pair of jeans and 2 shirts for $22.00! Might want to check it out!

Oh and I bought from the non plus side.....yippee;)

I actually have a lot of pics from my surgery ! My girlfriend put on scrubs and came in to document it.

It was cool to see what they did to me.

Sorry if I upset anyone with that pic ...

I loved it....hehe

I was wondering what it looked like;)

Sandy ... How did you add photo ? I keep trying but it won't accept it ... Can't figure out where I'm going wrong ? Haha

Amazing everyone !

I'm down 49lbs. Wearing 40 D instead of my 42 DD .. And my fav shirt that's been at the back of my closet the past 2 summers ! It's cold here... But so happy to wear it ( big on me) which makes me even happier ;p

I'm eating everything ~ even breads' date=' pastas , pizza .. Only a bite or two. Haven't had a single issue with any kind of food ... Just can't eat more than 2-3oz every three hours.

BEST DECISION EVER !!!!

Congratulations everyone !!!

Keri ... 5k ? Amazing !!! That's inspiring ![/quote']

You can eat pizza!!!!! I am really aching for a slice but I'm to scared lol! I too feel like I have a sleeve of steel! I haven't found anything I can't really eat!

I'm down 40 lbs and went from a size 20 to wearing 14s yesterday! Woohoo

I'm working out hard core and constantly so wondering if maybe wight has slowed cause I'm building muscles( that I did not know I had..hehe)

When I go on my scale or my pcps scale my weight is the same both places, but when I go to my vsg dr I'm 6 lbs lighter! Should I subtract 6 lbs from home and pcp or just go by what mine says?

I can't get the thread to work is there a way I can get it on u tube?

I'm hungry also! I eat and like 2 hrs later my tummy is rumbling;( I'm kinda bummed about it!

Nice!

To be out of this stall!!!!!!!!!

I'm down 73lb with 50 more to go! How about everyone else?

When we're you sleeved? I was sleeved on 11/5 and have been in a 2 wk stall! I feel like I'm never gonna lose again...lol

Maybe your first stall is mentally the worst;)

Well November sleever... At 8:30 am tomorrow the long loooooooong loooooooooong fisttating journey for cheap jeans and being able to see my feet ...and everything as well....will come to an end. (Mr. Happy was informed the catherter will be inserted while I am under and removed before I wake up!) I was going to shave down under into the shape of Christmas tree in keeping with the season of surprises but decided not too risk ticking off the fates! So here we go.........

Good luck! I say shave away! I wore wonder woman underwear to my surgery;)

Congratulations! I to bought my first pair of 16s! It was glorious! Do u have a clothes mentor near you? I just took some clothes there and made $40!

It's a high class goodwill, lol!

chocolate premiere Protein Shakes, they have been the best for me and they have 30 grams of protein! You can get them at costco or sams club.

Congrats Jessielynn on your loss so far! Are you working out yet? If so what is your workout like? How many calories are you at now?

Yes I am working out, I am kickboxing / circuit training 4 days a week then tring to keep up with 3 kids and working the rest of the time! Lol

I feel like I have a sleeve of steel I can eat about anything just tiny portions, I have about 400 calories a day and about 60 g of protien. I start everyday off with a premiere protien! I'm on my fitness pal if ya wanna friend me;)
