  1. Excellent couldn't have said it better myself!!! Bring on the SLEEVE:))
  2. Good luck on your weight loss journey:)
  3. Initially after the sleeve do you lose weight without exercise ? I know I will have to start but its hard when your 275 lbs:( . I really want to get to a place where it's not so hard to exercise and make it part of my life. Please can anyone that has had the surgery give me your story on how much weight you lost without exercise ?? Thank you
  4. Thanks I guess I will be seeing Bonjovi with no drinks on board:(
  5. Wow 116 lbs that's fantastic I wish I did this long ago but it is what it is:) 20 days to go I just don't want to fail I'm reading how you can stretch the sleeve out and gain weight back that scares me . I do have a positive outlook on this but I guess it's because I've failed at all my diets. I just don't want to ever get to that place of needing to eat so much to feel full . Thank you for your response it helped . Do you have any before and after pics ? I'm so happy for you !!
  6. Hi I feel like I'm eating many different things I love because I know I only have a week until liquid diet:( I know it's not the last time I will eat these things again. It's just going to be a different kind of eating lifestyle post-op small amounts. I need to know in my head that there is no room for failure this time because I am an overeater. I definitely want to have that full feeling and be able to eat small amounts . I love being able to vent and get advise on this forum it's great to have the support from people that truly know what I'm going through
  7. OMG just realized only 20 days left can't wait:)
