I have a few things I can't live without, I'm 4 months post op, wondering what everyone is eating how far out they are.... Here are mine... 4 months out Of corse I don't eat the cocktail sauce.

Your 18 you should be fine I lost 100 at age 15/16 and did fine,no did however have breast implants at age 22 bc I was always ashamed of them, bc of my teen weight lose they where not as full as all my friends. That's one of the best choices (other then my sleeve at age 28 ) i ever made for myself

Oh I'm sorry I thought you where asking what everyone's where as in what do they get down easy they should be eating..... That's all , sorry

4x 3 x shrine to 1x and large ( want go any smaller then that bc of my breast but I can not fit in all my shirts I wore before my weight gain) Pants I went from a 24/26 to a 16/18 now All mine before ranged from 11-14 50 lbs more to lose , march 9 th ill be 5 months post op

I just don't allow myself to eat anything high cal or carbs, I think it's very important to keep yourself away from the bad food that could become your slider. My personal belief is I put my body threw major surgery and had a huge part removed, why do all that if I go back to my old ways. This is just how I believe. I understand not everyone thinks that way but it's working for me. Iv lost a total of 80 lbs 70 since sleeved oct 9 th, my way of thinking had paid off for me. So at 11 days post op plz don't be even wondering ab sliders bc it might be your down fall a few months out

Yea iv always told him. He has never cared ab the number in a neg way. He loved me the same at 150 then at 278. And as my weight goes back down I tell him every pound I lose bc he is happy for me

I did ask mine, he said he used the tube they used in my air way, he said he put it in 3 in and cut around it, my sleeve is in the smaller size, I made sure to stress I wanted 80-85% removed , and trust me there is no mistaking how small it is for me. I def can't eat as much as it seems others in here can ( from what I can tell when they talk about it)

I know what your saying! I was sleeve oct 9 at 267 and I hit 199 a few days ago, and this morning I was 200 even I was like ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm running 2-4 miles a day!!!!! I know it's water weight bc if my monthly but still I want to see an 1 as my 1 st number!!!

I lost 10 lbs, I was not expecting to lose any, I bet once you have the surgery it will just start falling off, it's do amazing! Just don't be like this guy at my support group at 5 weeks post op was bragging how he could eat what ever he wanted, I'm sitting there thinking, why would you even try that junk?

Your not even going to want it once you are sleeved, I'm little over 4 months out and I still don't want food, once your like a year or so out you might want some but by then your going to think to your self " yea I could eat that but dang I look fine and I will not eat that junk "

I had a friend that never knew me thin, since 2009 I had gained 128 lbs, she seen my wedding pic hanging in my room and gasped " is that you?! You used to be so beautiful" I knew I had to get my old self back

Have you tried weight watchers, my sister and I did it she was 13 I was 15, she lost 69 lbs and I lost 100, I keep mine off for 12 years till I hurt my back and she never regained, I know you said you tried everything but give that a try again or for the 1st time. At her age she will not notice the food change as much and you can teach her an foods, kids burn fat so fast, and this way too if she gets older and gains latter she can have a sleeve then. I so lived WW it gave me a life as I had not had one before, I was able to enjoy the beach, flirting, clothes, all the teen stuff things I never did when I was the fat kid

I had typed a whole thing but canceled it, if you will message me i would like to talk.

Y'all should try a K pack, and chi silk therapy, my hair is fall out but still shinny . In all ab Product. It's been 4 year since I stood at a chair but I love me some product!

Don't cut it any shorter then your boobs!

Don't worry, you body is having to reset, I stalled for 3 weeks ( only lost 3 lbs!) I was losing 5-10 a week, so I changed things up, re though my work outs, while I was eating great, I cut my cal down by 200, and 2 days ago I started losing again. Just change it up. I had a friend get stick at 187 for months! Last 6 weeks she dropped to 158 ( she is short 158 is my goal but far from hers lol) . While I still have a long way to go these last few weeks I looked back at how far I had cane to power me threw the stall.

Just don't be swinging from the fans, or throw your husband around and you will be fine

I'm from a super small town! I went home home once for the weekend while my husband worked just to see my dad and before my bag was unpacked ppl where saying I had left my husband and moved home, my phone was blowing up! So I turned right around and left ( I'm to old and came to far in my life to be sucked in to small town small mindedness and more) . So when it came down to me having my sleeve I did not want anyone to know, but then I thought, oh God these damn ppl will start even worse rumors like iv got HIV or a eating disorder. So if a friend will ask " how are you dropping weight" I tell the truth, iv told maybe 12 ppl from back home, but the whole town knows now. I had gained 128 lb from the time I moved away till my sleeve, so ppl gasped at me and talked ab me for that, so is rather them talk ab me " taking the easy way out" . Sorry I'm just going on and on. But maybe it helped.

I have a friend who have keep 100% of the weight off 5 years post op and friends who gained 100% back 2 years post op , and one still works out and eats right the other I watched I watched pound down pizza, bread, soda, cookies, see what I'm getting at here

I went off post for a year trying to get a sleeve covered, the sleeve is not covered off post YET just like bypass was not covered in the past but is now one day the sleeve will to. So I changed over to prime and starred on post. Most all AMC do the sleeve in house, but tri-care want cover it. I pleased with the care I got. But like I said in my post before, the system getting to the surgery was not the best, so just stick to it and be your own voice, call call call

I had mine at Fort Gordon, it took little over 5 months, lot of hoops , lots of stalls with the system . But worth it in the end.

You go girl!

I edited almost 4 months, since I was not a drjnker before, 4 oz of rosé wine out me on my butt

If you don't have little ones ( 2 legged kind) I think you will be fine alone, but keep in mind you are still at small risked for post op comp, maybe have someone call you every hour or so to make sure you are ok.

You know I have no clue what the over all cost would have been for mine, I had everything done at an Army Med center. So they did not even send me a brake down.
