Day 3-passed, feeling good but I'm still bouncing the same weight. I've been working out and eating clean. We shall see

Thank u! I'm on day 2, wish me luck

Thanks ladies for the replies, only reason I said a month is because I wanted to see if I feel and see a change, and if I do, then I'll stick to it, if not, then I'll go back to high Protein from all sources. I did it today and I feel awesome! I'll keep updated and see what happens in a month. If anyone else wants to chime in opinions, feel free!!

I don't know where to start, what a life change and what a life saver my sleeve gave me. I started out at 250 pounds, at 5'6". My ultimate goal was 150 and a size 10, now I'm 160 and a size 4/6!! One day I'll get to that 150, if it wasn't for my muffin top and extra skin, I'd be my impression of perfect, I plan on doing some kind of boot camp classes soon and hoping that will help me. We all go through a lot making this life change, I don't regret anything except that I wish I can find a new motivation for some kind of new exercise routine because the gym gets boring and old! I stick to 13-1500 hundred cals and barely even hit 1000 most days. I gotta have my iced coffee every morning and Water and iced tea as well as my flavored drops to keep my hydrated. I do extremely low carb, 20-30 max daily and that's due to my type one diabetes and if I eat more carbs and sugars that leads to more insulin. I feel like I've cured myself with changing my habits. I love who I am now more and feel way more confident than before! Thank you Dr. Alvarez !!

I'm a 4/6 and was a 20/22 at 5'6" I still think I'm big because of loose skin and a muffin top. I'm 160 and was 250 DOS 7/2012

What a transformation! Now I wanna go shopping, lol. Does express run small or normal? I'm a size 4/6 and always worry their clothes may be too small. I was a 22!! Inspiring!

Yay! Lol, thanx!

I have the Para Guard and had no problems, then again the paraguard doesn't contain hormones or weight gain. I had it before surgery 1 1/2 years ago and a few pounds from goal.

Maybe you're right, ok you are, lol. It's just so hard when you're obese you're entire life to set your mind set. I think I'm going to focus more on strength training and go from there. Thank you

Lol, I know huh!

Thank you for your input, I know u mean well . I'm happy, I just keep thinking about my loose skin and if it was gone, I'd feel better, then again I think, if I lose 10 more pounds would it help my loose skin, which I know it won't.

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.

Sleeved July 7th, 2012 and it has been the most amazing and best thing that I've ever done! 81 pounds down and 19 from goal....

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.
