  1. I'm 3 mo out and losing 3lbs a week on average, I know there is no normal in sleeved world but that are other people losing at this time?
  2. I didn't really tell people besides close family and the way my side of family acted made me not want to share with anyone else.
  3. I am with ya I have 17 lbs to get there but don't think I will by July 4th so hope you do
  4. I can eat everything ;(
  5. I did, during 6 mo diet.
  6. I have lost 50lbs and look awful but have had two c sections and still have 40 to go, I'm 25. Also I do work out everyone is different tho.
  7. I find it more helpful to set smaller goals so at each little goal you can celebrate and then move to next goal, bc set goal at 175 which means 91lbs. I'm a little more than half way to goal and 1.6 lbs until my next small goal. It makes it feel overwhelming to say I have this huge number to go, I'm 3 mo out on 12th and currently down 48.4 so hopefully down 50 by 3 mo mark and weight loss slowed down in last month and have ups and downs. So guess depends on how you follow plan and how active you are. Good luck
  8. Thank u, ya not got any new clothes yet
  9. Sometimes have look back to move forward
  10. First boobs (what little I have) then legs and face. Stomach last.... Still waiting for lol I'm also larger on top than bottom.
  11. Thank you all for sharing
  12. I have had two c sections and the sleeved seemed worse, most likely bc didn't have new baby to distract from pain. Also pain is higher than with c section mine were very low and the cuts from sleeve in mid and upper stomach. But nothing you can't handle and within week your feeling more like old self.
  13. When did you feel thinner? When did you buy new clothing? When did you start changing sizes? When did you know to get rid of clothing? I have not got new clothing, I am still wearing my old clothes. While last summer my clothes got to small and things were hanging over, and they fit again and getting loose. I just don't feel like small enough for smaller size?! lost 47lbs and I don't feel smaller or look smaller in my eyes.
  14. Thank you, and the photo
  15. I had to share
  16. I had mine out but was already having issues, and had checked and had gall bladder disease. So dr doing sleeve agreed could have out while doing sleeve.
  17. Feel ya hit my first stall, sleeved 3/12 down 45lbs and been there for a week. Hoping this changes. Best of luck to you
  18. Thank you all for your input
  19. I am 2mo out and eat 1000-1200 a day, and losing. My dr had me back up to 900 a day by week 3.
  20. I'm feeling pressure to be down more, every time someone ask how much are you down now? And when I only say a lb or two less they give me this look..... Or better yet act like the weight I lost was easy.. I've been a disappointment to myself and my family, been the bud of jokes my entire life and not one person from my family has said anything nice, or way to go, or your looking good. I did this for me but sometimes you need your mom to say hey I'm proud of you no matter your age .... Ok I'm done feeling sorry for myself
