Thanks:) the exercise thing is just a matter of making time for it. I work 630 am to 530 pm and have an hour drive home to take care of my family. By the time I am done with dinner and baths and homework in DONE! Haha!

I had my surgery on 5/6/14. I have gone from 255 to 185. From a size 18 to a 12. I am 36 5'4"z I don't have many before pics cause I hated the way I looked...

Hi, I'm Stephanie and I was sleeved May 7, 2014.. I started at 255 and today I am 188. I feel good that I have lost 67 lbs. in off my meds, I have gone from a size 18 to a size 12 (12s are getting baggy) and I have a lot more energy. However. For the last 3 months I have been loosing like 3-5 lbs a month. And it fluctuates. I don't exercise (I know your gonna tell me I have to) I cheat with chocolate a few times a month. But for the most part I have changed everything! No fast food, sodas, fried food, grease.. What gives?

i really wish I had taken more before pics...... I was sleeved 5/7/14 and am down 68 lbs.

Holy crap!!!!!! You did amazing!!! Rock it girl!!!!

Yep.. If it's gonna happen it's gonna happen I just wanna know how long does this go on for...

Awesome!!!!!

Nothing works girls.... I take 10,000 of Biotin a day! Multivitamins, Vitamin D, B Complex, Calcium and a ton of protein... And I was taking all that (-the protein) since before surgery!!!

Beauty is pain

Your right.....

Sleeved on May 7th weighing in at 254 and today I am 194!!!! I feel it's a little slower than others but I'm happy that 60 lbs is gone!!w

Marmello what kind of b complex do you take? Chewables??

Thanks guys! I will up my Protien and try anything at this point!!! I'm constantly thinking I have a spider on me and I flip out only to realize it's my damn hair!!!!!

This is me in April This is me now

Hello, I am 5 months out on October 7th an am down 62 lbs.. Last month I started loosing hair. Tons of it. Luckily I have a lot of hair but it's annoying when my back is covered in my hair every day. I pull it out in the shower and when I brush it. It's awful and annoying. I knew this would happen.. I know there are threads on this but I'm looking for some fresh perspectives on how long this lasts??? I have been taking Biotin and Multivitamins since before surgery. I get 60 grams of Protein in a day and wash my hair with good hair loss shampoo... I just wanna know how long?!?!?

My surgery was May 7th and I'm down 60 lbs and about 2 weeks ago I started loosing hair.. It seems like a lot to me but I do have a lot of hair and it's shoulder length so I hope it does not show too much. I always exceed my Protien and have taken biotin this whole time so yeah... Nothing is gonna stop it. If your the chosen one your the chosen one... Sucks...

I agree with your surgeon. Go big or go home. Who wants a foreign object implanted in them only to erode or slip. Then most likely at some point you will have it re done cause it does not work well in comparison to iterate methods. Go with the sleeve, you keep your stomach and no nutrient absorption!

Dr. Eslami at Slimlife Solutions in south Sacramento was really great! The team is so motivating and knowledgeable. They are awesome!!! Dr Eslami is no nonsense and knows his stuff. I have Blue Shield HMO and had my surgery at Methodist Hospitol and it was a wonderful experience. I am 4 months out and down 56 lbs! I was so scared to go through with my sleeve but Dr. Eslami made it flawless. Stephanie Auburn CA

Thank you!!

Not everyone believes in god so throwing religion into politics is a pointless comparison..
