I was sleeved aug 8th 2013. Anyone going through the process now just have faith that this IS the best decision of your life. I started at 233lbs..I had pcos infertility and high trigycerides. I am 11 months out and my weight has stabled out at about 150lbs. I just found out this week that we are expecting baby #3 conceived naturally thanks to my 83lb weight loss..I love my new life. Check out my gallery of pictures and my blog posting on here to get my full story..good luck to all

How is everyone doing? ? I have lost 78 lbs and am only losing a pound or two a month. . Surgery was august 8th 2013...I exercise 4-6 days a week andtry to stay under 800 calories. . High weight 235 surgery weight 216 current weight 154... height 5"3

I am just starting out but I keep hearing people tell me, "Don't lose to much." but I have noticed that comes from my friends that are over weight by 20-30 lbs... so I am taking it with a grain of salt. I know they don't mean to be catty but I am sure they would feel lazy if my Fat Butt got smaller than them. But nothing will stand in my way, I am going to keep working out and eating healthy, I am not going to let my weight, either high or low, stop me from being the healthiest me I can be.

This thread is getting out of hand. I was thinking about this conference as a sort of before and after pic. I plainly said that MY EXPECTATIONS were at fault. I didn't have as much to lose as some but I had 110 lbs to lose so I'm no light weight myself. All I was saying is I went for inspiration and I didn't find much of it. I don't know anything at all about any of their personal journeys nor do they know of mine. I wasn't judging any of their personal journeys. The fact is most of them were still fat and i wasnt "expecting " that. I'm sorry that that word bothers some of you so much, but i never considered it a bad word, because for me it just was a way of life. I feel like a lot of people on this forum are quick to start a fight but, sorry, I'm not gonna play. I've been on this forum for 6 months and mostly I given and received a lot of great support. Support is all I come here for so excuse me if I don't participate in being goaded into something more.

Like someone else on here said, the "successful" people don't tend to go to the support groups. Why should they? They are doing fine on their own. Just keep that in mind when going back to a support meeting. You will find more of the strugglers than maybe you want. But of course that is the point... To find support from people who can relate.

OMG Congrats! I could cry for joy for you!! I have cysts all over both ovaries even after losing 70lbs. I hope and pray for the day that I get my ultrasound and they are gone!! Wishing you well on your journey for a baby!! I had my two girls via ivf a few years back!!

I went to a support group when I was only 8 weeks out and I with the exception of 1 woman was by far the thinnest in the room. I was thinking, maybe everyone was very very large before surgery or maybe they just didnt lose well. One woman kept talking about how she loves drinking beer and drinking soda and how she cant stop and cant lose weight. I was soo annoyed to even be there that I havent gone back since. I'm now 7 months post op and doing well. Thinking of going back to the "support" group again to touch base with others...hoping for a better experience

CW HOLY CRAP I'm 157 lbs..
I havent been this weight since I was a teenager.
On a side note..
Everyones telling me 'Dont lose anymore weight you look perfect as you are"
BUT according to the stupid BMI I have to lose another 22lbs JUST to be at my absolute highest healthy weight. I find that a bit absurd.
I feel great at my current weight but figure I can lose 10-20 more lbs so I have a few lbs of wiggle room if I ever want another child..
How has everyone responded to YOUR weight loss??
