  1. My husband had his sleeve on 12/20 -- mine is 3 years old. He can drink a whole Protein shake in a 15 mins or so as well. I got to see the screen when he did his swallow test. It was super interesting -- his stomach was very small, but the liquid went into the stomach and then almost immediately into the intestines. This is why you should not have much trouble drinking as the liquid will move through. If you have trouble drinking it is due to intense swelling -- I don't think that is abmormal, but it is also not abnormal to be able to drink easily. You will really feel the restriction once you move onto the solids.

  11. 176 even this morning.
  12. If I am on an empty stomach, I can feel it after just one glass of wine. I was never a big drinker though.
  13. Thanks for sharing these I am having LBL, BL/BA, small TL and small AL w/ Dr Sauceda in about 2 months. I can not wait! Are you happy w/ the small thigh lift? Do you ever wish you went for the long one?
  14. Oh! Can I join a bit late? I am having plastics on 11/7, so this is almost perfect timing for me. Here is my weight info: 9/5: 178 9/12: 176.5 (177?) goal: 170 this might be a bit aggressive, but whatever! Thanks for putting the challenge together
  15. Morning everyone! I weighed in this morning at 177.2. I ran a half marathon yesterday, so I think I am a little lower today than normal. I'm hoping to keep going down, but would not be surprised to see a little bounce back -- normally I do after super long run days.
  16. I think that I forgot to post last week. 7/21 - 180 7/28 - 179.5 I have been bopping up and down the same few lbs for the past month. I'm not sure if I am content with maintenance here or not -- I think I am, but am worried about the regain. I'm going to try to clean up my after dinner eating and see how that goes.
  17. I forgot to post on Monday, but my weight was 180.6. Making good progress!
  18. Thank you for taking this over! I do love these challenges I won't be home to weigh until Tuesday, so will use my starting weight from Friday ( last day at home) of 182.4. Sw: 182.4 Gw: 169.9 Odd goal, but I would like to hit the 160s. I think I want to settle around 170 with my top maintenance of 174. Getting there by the end of summer would be great! I just need to stay away from the sugar.
  19. Posting a couple of days late. It's been busy this weekend. Wight on July 4th 182.4. I didn't make goal this time, but I still had some good loss. My weigt has been stable the last few weeks - I have been struggling with major stress, and had some poor food choices. I've been back on track the last couples f days, so hopefully I can get the last 10 lbs or so off in the next few months!
  20. I haven't been able to post the past couple of week due to lots of travel. Today I weighed in at 181.4. 1.5lbs way from goal -- I think I can do it!
  21. I wasn't home on Friday morning. This morning I weighed in at 185.1 -- first week that I am up! I am pretty sure most is water weight due to my visit to Vegas and a bit of indulgence. I'm traveling this week to Europe for work, so I will probably continue to retain water, but am hoping to be back at 182 by the end of next weekend!
