Happy for you that it went well

Celebrating today- 75kg down in 8 months I am one happy sleever!

You look awesome!! Great job:)

Hi lessismore I still can't believe how little I can eat, I am totally amazed by it all I was 6 weeks out last Friday and haven`t been hungry once. Head hunger is another story but I am getting through it. Hope you are doing well.

Hi Sunette.How are you going? Have you broken the stall?

Hi slowly but certain the scale is starting to move in the right direction again. Losing heaps of inches though because I had to throw out bags if clothes that is now to big. What a great feeling!!! How are you going?

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend Kelli

Wow well done!!

I know what your talking about Sherrie. I also on a 3 week + stall. Very frustrating not seeing the scales go down. At least my clothes are getting bigger show I am losing cm. should have measured myself as well the kg will start coming off again. Cannot wait. I am almost 6 weeks out. Good luck and keep us up to date:)

Hi Lessismore and Sueoco

Thank you for responding. I haven't measured myself but notice the difference on my clothes and people are starting to notice.

I agree with you Sue I think my body might be in shock and need to adjust. I will just keep doing what I am doing and I believe that it will come off.

Thank you for the encouraging words.

Hi guys. I finally decided to join in on this thread. Have been following the thread for a while now. A lot of useful information I just love reading everybody stories.

My name is Sunette and I am from Perth WA.

Sleeved 22/3/2013 about 6 weeks out.

Pre-surgery weight 99.8kg

Surgery day 95.4kg

Post op weight loss 6.1kg

Currently 89.2kg

I have lost consistently for the 1st 3 weeks post op and nothing since then. Getting in my Protein and Water and walking a lot (I am a Registered Nurse) I am becoming discouraged and thinking is this it? What if my sleeve isn't working? I know almost everybody stall at 3 weeks but a 3 week stall in total is just getting me down.

Well that is my final crying in your ears.

Congrats to everybody weight loss so far. Honestly love this thread and support.

Sunette

Thank you for all the advice excellent !!!

You all look fantastic, great job!!!! It is an inspiration to me and give me hope that I will also get there. I am 4 weeks out today 13.1kg down pre and post weight combined. Had a stall for a week scale is now moving again. Keep it up follow sleevers
