Checking in.. I was sleeved 7/24, just want to see how everybody's doing? Are you still losing?? Are you at goal weight yet?? I'm 9 pounds from my surgeons goal, but I'm going for another 10 ontop of that, so really thinking I'm 19 pounds from goal. I am finally losing again and making sure that my eating is right. Upping my workouts again and hoping to get to goal by my birthday in September.

I cannot tell you how many days I was stuck at 220 but it was a long time!! Monday and Tuesday of this week I tried liquids only, it included shakes, creamy soup and lots of water, I am 215.5 as of yesterday.. maybe you can try liquids?

Yes, measure.. eat and enjoy pooping because after the first week it will not come as easily as it has your entire life!! I know TMI, but it happens

I am two months two weeks and four days out from surgery.. I have lost 49 pounds to date and can only pray that I lose like you! You have done an amazing job!!! Thanks for sharing

I thought my surgeon dropped me lol!! I have had the same problem since surgery on 7/24. Okay.. now I will start focusing on muscle in the butt.. who knew. I really have been complaining thinking that he did something to me..

I just got my new Jawbone UP over the weekend, so excited...! Now I need some friends.. does anybody else have this bracelet and app? I would love toknow how to add friends and get some accountability going

I hate this part of my life. Never had a problem before and now.. I almost pray to poop lol!

How are you feeling? Praying for a speedy recovery

My doc never said to spread them out. I am curious about it though. I forget to take mine too. My office said that our body absorbs only 500 at a time, so anything over that is not being stored, but wasted.

Thanks for that. The excuse I am making at this time is the pain I get from walking for a normal period of time because my incisions are stiched to my stomach muscles, and like all muscles, walking contracts the muscles. Therefor making major pain for days following a good walk. I was posting more to see if anybody else had that issue around the same point in time as I did so I could get some advise on when I would be able to start walking like a normal timed walk, because I feel bad about the fact that I cannot walk like I think I should at this time.

Sheryl.. it's me. Samantha LOL!

Ahh man! I am sorry to hear about this! I was sleeved a little over 3 weeks ago, and so far so good.. with the exception of possibly tearing a stich. I hope you start feeling better and turn out happy with your decision. Again, I am sorry for your complication. Keeping you in my prayers.

I am super excited to get started, I have a gym at work and free personal training, I think I really just want to know that it's okay thatI haven't jumped in just yet. I know that I can't wait for it to be a part of my life, I have 4 awesome kiddos and a great husband and can't wait to do outdoor things as a family. I think I'll give it one more week and get busy.. starting with walking each day and then when cleared at my 2 month follow up, I'll get that trainer a run for their time

I am a little over 3 weeks out.. oh and stalled and haven't really done much for exercise. I went for a walk two weeks ago, walked for about an hour and really felt pain for several days. My incisions are stiched to my stomach muscles and I could tell that I did something wrong. I have been coming up with lots of excuses.. it's too hot, I don't want to hurt myself again.. blah blah.. at what point did you really put yourself in gear and start walking to lose the weight?
