  1. Hey sleevers! So I'm down 93 pounds with 8 to goal. I'm currently 158-160 (my bounce) I've gone from a size 20/22 to a 4/6. So I surpassed my goal of being a size 10 but haven't reached my weight goal. Each day I wake up and I work hard to stay on track. My problem is I wake up each day wanting to be 150. ( I gained a few over Xmas and lost it and got back to where I was) I'm eventually going to need a LBL and thigh lift as well as breast lift (no implants) hoping to do this by summer if funds are available. How do you teach your brain that you're healthy and have lost such and lost and not focus on that scale number? Any suggestions on getting these last few off? I'm thinking of hitting the gym again 5-6 instead of my 3-4 that I cut down too. Any advice is appreciated. I gotta get out of this funk.
  2. Thank u! 1 1/2 years and 93 down! In a size 4-6
  3. I will be living there soon. Currently in Houston but getting married in October and my future husband is in kenner.
  4. So when are we all getting together ?? ????
  5. Great thinking! Sounds great but I work like a maniac and am never home... Lol
  6. Thank you Linda. I track from time to time on MFP, once I got closer to goal I stopped. And I never messed up until recently (holidays) and I feel bummed out. I know what to do, and your input truly puts everything into perspective. I just feel like ill never get these 15-20 pounds off and feeling down. I plan to get back on track starting now and hopefully that will do the trick. I'm happy to say I'm a size 4/6 but I can't believe how fast I gained 9 pounds ! Blah! Lol
  7. I tried 5:2 and it didn't work well with me. I'm a type one diabetic and my blood sugar dropped like crazy. Thank u though.
  8. Hello , so I've been sleeved for 1 1/2 years, lost 92 pounds and never made my goal of 150, which was 8 pounds, I kept bouncing btw 158-162, I gained some pounds over the holidays, now I'm 166. Kinda down about that. I've always been stressed and obsessed with each thing I stick into my mouth, until about a few weeks ago, so I admit that it's my fault. My question is this, how did u get your last 15-20 pounds off, I don't believe in liquid diet only because it's kinda non sense now. I'm going back to basics, 1000 cals, 30 carbs, 80 protein and cardio, but is there something else anyone would recommend to me? I feel like I am missing something??
  9. Awesome! Let me know if u like them. If not I'm going to have to do something with them because I paid too much for them lol. I was a 20/22 and it took me 1 1/2 years.
  10. I'm not sure what's going on but is it normal to gain weight on 5:2? I'll admit I didn't do the greatest Christmas Eve and day but I also didn't do horrible, a few bites of this and that but I'm up 8 pounds and it's making me crazy. Really worried and not sure this is for me. My sugar also drops a lot and I wake up shaking in the middle of the night and grab a protein bar or some crackers to being it back up. I feel like a failure.

  16. Hey to those who know me and those who don't, it's been a long road and a wonderful chapter in my life to have my sleeve. I'm so greatfull! Never is this easy, especially for a certified chef who loves everything about food. I was sleeved by the famous G. Alvarez in Piedras Negras, MX and I loved every second of it! Couldn't be happier with my choice. I'm down 93 pounds and currently a size 4/6. I'm engaged now and hoping to plan my wedding soon. Here's a few pictures. Hope this helps anyone in doubt.
