Melting in Az

Hi Mel1976, sorry I just saw this, I'm in Arizona and would love to be buddy's. I'm sorry about your complications with your band. Where are you getting sleeved? I was just sleeved September 25th, but love my sleeve so far. Do you have a date yet? I'm excited for you.

Welcome and congratulations for your upcoming journey to a new you. Ditto on what Indecision said, this board has answered all the questions I had and some that I didn't even think of yet lol. Good Luck and keep us updated.

WOW! You are doing great and look fantastic! When was your surgery?

I started my chewables as soon as possible after surgery.

I started them after surgery - three weeks out today, and I still take them. No problems here.

Congratulations, you're almost there - how exciting. And yes, people like to voice there opinions, I even heard it from a nurse as I was getting ready to be wheeled in for surgery. The comment was (she's not a bariatric patient, she's not THAT big). My thought was why should I have to be THAT big at all, but I ignored her, she doesn't live in my skin nor does she have my medical problems and I wasn't going to get into it then. There's going to be comments that we just have to let roll off. Enjoy your journey. It's your, all yours, and you deserve it.

Hi everyone - Sleeved on September 25th - 3 weeks today and down about 19 pounds. You all are doing great. (I'm from Arizona)

Glad everything is going well.

What an inspiration! You look Amazing, thanks for sharing!

You look fantastic! Congratulations!

Way to go! You look Fabulous!

Best of luck and so excited for you and your new journey.

Glad you're home and doing good. Let the healing begin.

Congratulations!

Glad you're doing ok. Keep getting lots of rest, it really does help. The results are coming and you're definitely moving in the right direction. Hang in there.

I was Sleeved September 25th. I only told a handful of people that I was having the surgery and the others, I just didn't tell. If anyone ask me now, I will tell the truth. I think I just wanted to avoid any drama before the surgery. But everyone has to do what is comfortable with them.

Thanks for sharing, I'll definitely be watching for it.

No drain here either.

You should be happy You look Fabulous!!!

An 8, that is AWESOME! Way to go, and happy shopping

I'm so sorry for your loss. Keeping you and you're family in prayers!

Congrats and Good Luck!

I do the Whey protein powder and it's one scoop to 8 oz to liquid. I use either fat free milk or almond milk.

Happy 2nd Sleeve-versary! And congratulations for such an awesome job at losing the weight one, and two for maintaining it!

Congratulations - you look fabulous!!!
