I paid $4500 in 2/2014

I went to Mexico, with Dr. QUINONES. I had a great experiance! I would recommend him to my loved ones in a hot second!

If you feel good and your happy with how things are going keep it up! Stay hydrated and stay focused on your protiens, easy - peezee! How did your labs look? Take your vitamins!

I heard that Dr.Q was getting some shit talk. I hope this is not true, there are a lot of us that have benefited from his expertise. I have lost over 100 lbs since 2/20/2014. I went with 2 girlfriends and we had a great experiance. If I get booted off this forum because of this post ....What a shame!

12/19 182 I won't be able to weigh in till 12/29

Been so off with weigh ins! 12/1/14 I weighed 184, so up a bit from Turkey Day, then by 12/4 I weighed 181.5 and then forgot to weigh in on Friday! Hopefully I can get back on track with checking in when I am supposed to!

182.5

Next week you'll be down it happens, this was a big ordeal for body to go through!

I suggest logging ASAP just because it can be a vital habit to have in your arsenal if you ever do have a real stall or wieght gain. New habits and behaviors are vital to your long term success!

Every body responds differently to major surgery, stay off the the scale, it happens! I did not lose for a couple of weeks and now I am almost -100 pounds in less then a year! IT HAPPENS

It took me @ 6 weeks to feel "normal". Eat popsicles, tummy is swollen and the cold helps with swelling and it is a way of getting in liquid. I don't mind most protien shakes, I shop for low sugar high protien. Flavor free to add the soup.

Sorry I did not get my post in last Friday 11/14 weigh in was 184 Does anyone know if you can post from an Android phone? Since my tablet got crushed by my nephew I would like to be able to post with my phone and can not figure it out.

First, trust your instincts! If you are concerned about everyone finding out keep it to yourself! I choose not to tell anyone that I either knew would have a negative attitude or was a jabber jaws! It is such a personal journey and it is uncomfortable to be judged no matter what you do! I was so judgmental about people that had surgery! Then I changed the way I viewed my weight. Instead of berating myself for being such a failure at losing my weight I realized that it had turned into a disease for me. I was sick and only getting worse. I was addicted to sugar and simple carbs and had no control. Then I learned about the sleeve, that was something that made sense for me and offered me a tool that I thought I could utilize. It is working and it is a miracle! You may find that you become less sensitive about people finding out, let yourself evolve with your sleeve, don't feel like you have to do anything! When and if your ready you'll share. Right now you need to stay in your healing! You need to worry about you and learning how to take care of you! Now is a time to be selfish in that this transformation is going to affect all aspects of your life! Be prepared, you may lose friends or the relationships change, you are going to be different. My husband says I exude confidence now, and I am starting to feel it!
