Ill join in... 8/27/12-DOS- 223 Today: 166.4 Goal for 1st of Spring is to reach my personal goal Weight of 150-155. I thank God every day for leading me down this path. My Sleeve is the best thing that I ever did for myself. I tell EVERYONE that asks about my weight loss about the sleeve!!

Congrats!!

Congrats. Keep us up on your progress.

Congrats 75 is awesome. You are well on your way!! It really does feel good to be in a better place in life doesn't it?

I haven't worked out like I need to. I have walked in some 5Ks which is something I probably couldn't have done before. I do ride a stationary bike a little but not regularly. The hardest part is leaving food on my plate. I make very small plates and I stop the very second I feel anything close to full so leaving uneaten food is hard. Really no part of the whole surgery has been real bad. I would most definitely do it over a hundred times. My only regret is not taking this step sooner.

My weight on day of surgery was 221. I was self pay due to lower BMI and not qualifying with insurance.

Picture in green shirt are both taken one week prior to surgery.

I had surgery 8/27/12. I am officially down 43 lbs. I have never felt better; physically or mentally. Life is wonderful. Onward and downward!! One week before surgery 40 days post op and down 27lbs. 3 months post op and down 43 lbs 3 months post op down 43 lbs.

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. Hang in there with the pre-op. it is so worth the trouble.

I was self pay. My first appt was July 3 and I was sleeved on August 27. Could if done it earlier but I had planned a vacation. Good luck on approval.

Surgery on 8/27/12 Size 18/20 day of surgery and XL to 2X top Yesterday I purchased size 12's and a medium top

Starting weight in day of surgery was 221 Weight today.…194 and dropping. Everything I've lost has come out of the middle.

These pictures were taken today. Cheesy because I took myself but they show what a difference just 40 days has made. 40 days after surgery Today-27 lbs lighter AND HAPPY!!!!

I was sleeved on 8-27-12. Just 40 days ago. I am down 27 pounds since the day of surgery. I feel like I've had a spare tire surgically removed from my middle. I am so happy I did this for me!! The week before surgery. Week prior to surgery

Mine has been awful since surgery. I use proactiv and never had bumps. After surgery I am broke out regardless of what I use.
