confidence

I have one week left myself I will be there on June 11th with Dr. Garcia yay. Excited and going nuts all at the same time. Just ready to get this train moving..

don't be too discourage it will get better and I know you hear those words before but it does. I am now a month out and loosing more than my first two weeks out. On my second week I lost 1 pound in a week to be exact and I was feeling the same way comparing to others who loosing 8 to 11 lbs. I realized as time goes by I am loosing more. I am now at an average at 5lbs per week. This all to say we all are different and will adjust to this weight loss journey at different amounts and pace. Keep hanging in there.

So sorry prayers.

It's been a while since I've posted, but I wanted to post some update pictures. Last time I did I was 138 lbs down and in a 10 and pretty damn happy. I am now 163 lbs down and in a 6, maintaining.. even still *slooooooowly* losing.. My body seems to have found it's happy weight for the most part though and I find myself losing inches more than pounds these days, which suits me just fine! Still counting this as the BEST thing I've EVER done for myself.

Don't mind the toilet. Lol

Hi November sleevers! It's been ~6 months for us! How are all of you doing?
I am 5'10", started at 330, was 310 at surgery, and am now 330.5 (SO CLOSE to 100 lbs from last year!) I was sleeved November 16,2012, so this is my 6 month anniversary.
I had some serious month 3 depression, but that thankfully got better and went away. I've had some hairloss, but it could be so much worse, I'm sure.
I'm exercising and feeling positive. My weight loss has definitely slowed down a LOT, and some weeks the scale doesn't move, but I'm in such a better place than last year.

You girls look fab. Here are mine.

Surgery date nov 8 start weight was 325 now I weigh 210!


I'm the one in the pink and white if u can't tell it's awesome when people literally don't recognize u!

I had itching when I had my surgery and nothing works for me but triple paste. You can give it a try and see if it works.

The closer I get to my surgery date the more nervous I become. I'm hope I can stick to the Pre-Op diet!

<p> It's really hard coming to terms with my weight loss. I only took this picture for a relative, so I decided to compare an old picture from the summer. In my head, when I look in the mirror, I see the girl in the photo on the left staring back at me. I cant find solace in any of the numbers and statistics, and not even this photo comparison makes me feel better. I am still unhappy with my body. Did anyone else have these feelings? Did they go away as you approached your goal weight?

I'm down 60 pounds and it feels great

Our heads play a mean game! Today I see a difference when I look at my newest pictures, but not as much of a difference when I look at myself. We will get there.

I'm doing much better with the liquid intake than two weeks ago. Thank God:)

I'm doing much better with the liquid intake than two weeks ago. Thank God:)

Hi hazel eyes my liquid intake is improving a bit. It dont hurt as much to swallow. Coconut Water goes down well for me but i cant drink too much as it contains 9g carb and 100cal per 16oz. I fall asleep real easily now. I could be talking with you and then in the middle i will be asleep. Not sure y this is. Other than those minor complaints i felt as if i didnt have a surgery. thank god! Oh i forget to mention i have an allergic reaction to the surgical tapes. Its not too bad though. All my fault they did ask me if i have one but i said no. Never had a major surgery so i did not know i was allergic my self. As for liquid intake im at about 50oz not including my broths or shakes. My mind still think about food i guess that will adjust over time. I have to keep reminding myself i cant eat those stuff aleast rite now:(

Had my surgery yesterday

thank you. I got her to Tijuana yesterday and had my surgery the same day. As of this moment i am doing wonderful. I had post my details on my topic the final countdown. Check it out:)
