I'll be 21 on jan 31st. My sleeve is on feb 4th. I'm guessing a drink is out of the question on my birthday?

I drank up until about three days until my surgery. You should be fine.

11 months out and i'm past my goal weight and still losing.

My friends always bring it up. I really hate talking about it with strangers. This is who i am now, i dont want to think about how i was before.

170lbs in 7 months???? WOW!! That's AMAZING!!!

I lost 30 of it on my pre-surgery diet. So more like 9 months lol .

But 140 in the past 7 months.

Looky at you! Lost all that weight and none in hair follicles! Love it!

Good thing too, it makes my huge head a little bit camouflaged.

7 months out, 7 lbs to go till goal weight.

Down a total of 170 lbs. almost half my start weight lol.

Never ever felt better. If i had to do it again i would do it everyday of the week and twice on sunday.

Im 7 months out and havent lost any hair. Also have had amazing results.

Do it.

Im 7 months out and my friends think im way more fun now than i ever was. Not embarrassed to go out in public anymore, and more adventurous than ever.

...............which sounds like a good thing to me

Indeed it is.

None at all. Its definitely a complete lifestyle change. But ive never been this happy and confident before.

So much for this being the mens room i guess.

But what john said is what i was thinking as well. If your doing it more often, your going to produce less per.

Pretty much just pictures of my puppy because thats what instagram is for.

Down about 160

I told my closest friends and family before the surgery, none of them said anything negative.

Once i hit 150 lbs lost i started to tell people i had wls. Anyone who even questions it gets the same response. "Did you see what i looked like before? Id have this surgery again tomorrow if i had too."

Miserable people try to inflict there misery on the people around them. Either cut them out, or overwhelm them with your new found happiness.

I've lost 205 lbs and I can def say there is a BIG difference in size. Did not realize how much it would make in that area. I would have had this surgery long time ago if I knew this.

Damn... Good work man.

Well this thread turned weird quick.

On topic though, it hasnt happened since i had surgery, but when it does, and it will, im sure its going to be great for all parties involved.

Ive been dealing with peoples negative opinions of me my entire life. There was a point where i stopped caring about the opinion other people had of me, because really, what do they really know about me. Only my opinion of myself is what matters.

I told my family and they were all supportive. I told my closest friends and they were as well. I didnt tell anybody i wouldnt tell personal things too and it worked out.

Now that im 160 lbs lighter, when people ask i tell them. Nobody can question it because of the results. And even if they did i probably would tear them apart about how wrong they are.

Ive nearly passed out twice since the surgery. Once was after i broke my toe, i think i was in shock after i took my shoe off and found out my toe was mangled. The second time was last night in my friends kitchen. Just got really really dizzy, my ears were ringing and my vision got really blurry. I sat down and was fine.

Congratulations. Just joined this club yesterday actually. Surgery date was 2/11 and my hw was 357.

Broke the 200 barrier today.

199 lbs. first time ive been under 200 lbs since i was like 13.

Started at 357. Currently at 201 after 6 months. Dying to break into the 100's.

You should be fine if it was over a month ago.

My surgeon never tested me though, i didnt know they even did that.

Just quit, its awesome.

I quit cigs 6 months before my surgery and diet coke a week before.

Havent been back, dont want to go back. Being able to breathe is amazing.

Sounds like my mom, lol. Except shes also really nice, and drives a range rover.

Shes the tan (naturally) lady walking way to fast on the treadmill and just generally looking like shes trying to hard.

Just outside Boston in a city called Waltham.
