  1. I feel like my surgery is *finally* kicking in after 6 months of feeling like I could eat like a normal person almost. I'm getting good restriction and weight loss. Yay! :)

      @padremama, I've not done anything different just over the course of the last 2 weeks I sort've lost my appetite which is how I thought I would feel at the the beginning of the surgery. I went through the normal recovery process but I could eat a plate of food, no problem. Now I''m lucky to get 4-5 bites and then I'm done (combination of appetite loss and a fullness sensation) which I never had before.

  10. The only reason I haven't posted anything is because I have slipped. No, I haven't gained, but I sure haven't lost either. Just staying at where I am right now. One excuse I have is stress. It has been a stressful year and not letting up. I know that exercising would help me to get back on the losing end, but just having the energy to exercise is a problem. I think I need intervention, quite honestly.

      A woman I am working with planned her whole surgery in a matter of weeks with reputable surgeons and facilities. She took out a 5K loan on her 401 for medical hardship and is doing it in January. By any means....

  24. So I haven't been on here in awhile but I am happy to give you all an update. Since surgery I am down 35 lbs. I feel so good and full of energy. I go to the gym Monday-Friday for about an hour and a half sometimes 2 hours if I feel good. The elliptical is my best friend...Lol.. overall I feel good and love working out and seeing changes in my clothing size. I started back to work last week and it's been good. I was a little tired in the beginning but I've picked up my momentum. Overall doing well and I love my sleeve :)
