Thanks everyone!!!!

I'm almost 4 months out and today I seen my pcp foe the first time since February. She told me my BMI is down to 26 from 36, I've lost 49 lbs and my blood pressure was excellent. I am now 195 lbs. haven't seen this since 2000!!! I cried and when I looked up she was crying too!!! She knows my weight loss struggle and has been walking with me in it. My goal is 150 even and I hope that I can reach it by November (my birthday). Today is a Major milestone for me. I sure hate that I waited this long to do this!!

You are so right about that!!!! The hardest part about this is making the choice!!! Congrats, good look and can't wait for those post op pics!!!!

IKR!!! I was thinking "my greedy self might be out here alone with this one!!!!". Lol but I guess not! I do good tho with my food choices overall tho.

I try to do one day of just liquids. Protein shakes, unsweetened juice, Water. I'm full all day after that!

Please let me know if it is normal to feel hungry??? I eat small amounts, but it seems like every two hours I am empty and ready for more!!!!

I can't tell the difference either between decaf and regular and I've been drinking coffee since the age of 5!!! I think it's mental!

Since my surgery I have been trying to ind a good bike to ride for exercise, if and when our weather EVER breaks into spring in Michigan. Can anyone recommend a good sturdy model? Thanks ~Kishi

How do they taste????

These are AWESOME!!!! 15grams of protein, 180 calories, 14 carbs and the homemade vanilla tastes Devine!!!!! I've been trying to find a meal replacement shake with good flavor and had been unsuccessful until now!!! Let me know what you think! ~~Kishi

Hey girl!!! Congrats on making the best decision ever!! Keep us posted on your date and ill make sure to send up prayers when you go in!!! It only gets better from here!!!

I'm excited for you too!!! Remember to follow directions and WALK as soon as they let you!!! The gas is the worst part about it, but the key is to walk it down!!! Good luck!!

Hey everyone!!! I'm new to any type of forums and was told by a friend that it would be nice to join one to talk to those who have also made the awesome decision to sleeve-it-out!! I had my surgery 2/5/13 and I have just been release to do soft foods!!! It's still a learning process for me and I hope you guys can offer me some additional insight!!! I feel awesome and I look even better, this is one of the best decisions I have ever made!!
