I was convinced I'd never leave the 200's being stuck at 202/200 for what feels like forever but now at just about 8 months post op I've done it!! It couldn't have happened soon enough I was totally falling off angry that my sleeve was "broken" but from being a size 22/LXX plus and 284 to now a slim 12/M 199 I'm so happy and pray this helps me get back into my routine

It's been quite the journey these past 7 months. I have learned a lot about just how much I did eat and how nasty it is to sit on the sidelines watching people eat what used to be my norm and then some and think omg how can they just keep eating.. That's so much food!
I feel like I'm even more self critical then I was.. Sometimes I look at myself and even though I've lost over 80lbs and a size 12 down from a 22 I feel so fat! Jiggly bits of skin here and there.. More frustrated at the scale.. Like why won't it move.. Damn it to hell!!
I have no regrets in doing the surgery but I am getting tired of trying all the time. Sometimes it feels like I committed to a permanent diet and get frustrated when I go to a fancy restaurant and have to run and throw up because I had just a bit more than my body could handle.
Just trying to find happiness within myself and new body..

Happy monthiversary to everyone!

Best work out DVD I found - is Jillian Michaels 30 day shred its only twenty minutes and its awesome. It's hard so make sure u have approval to work out first ..

Is it normal 3 weeks out I can literally eat anything? Not a lot of it cuz I get the tightness but yeah, can eat normal food just fine.., think my sleeve isn't working properly??

I had a c-section little over a year before I was sleeved 7/8/13 in my opinion the sleeve was a walk in the park compared. I did have issues with throwing up spit my first two days but I haven't had a drop of pain meds since 7/10 two days out. I have no help (aside my hubby at night) with my one year old twin boys and I'm a full time mom. Been doing it all since this past Wednesday. You get worn out since u don't take in that many calories but I feel much more human than I thought I would.

I haven't yet... I pray it's no time soon. I don't want to get annoyed with the surgery too soon
