78.5 lbs down sleeved on 12/19/13!

Hang in there. I am 3 months post op and have lost about 50lbs. I just took a trip to value village for some slacks and walked away with a pair of 9west shoes, a new pair of pants with tags, a new shirt and two pairs of leggings for $46. The best part they were three sizes smaller than before . Do you, do what feels good.

Hang in there! The first month was difficult. I'm at three months out and I feel pretty darn normal! It will get better. Push through this!

I'm obsessed with my body changes. Everything from how much I pee to my hair shedding. I find myself thinking every side effect that could happen might happen if I deviate from my meal plan and eat a Dorito! I weigh daily and I am concerned I might be stalling. I don't want to fail at weight loss this time.
I'm trying to calm down.

I just joined a gym and plan on using resistance machines to work out and tone.
You mentioned you "do not have a large amount to lose" are you speaking of excess skin? I ask because for me losing 100lbs was drastic enough for me to be sleeved. It amounted to a large amount in my mind. I've lost 78lbs and counting. I couldn't imagine being sleeved for any other reason! Lol

Thank you guys for sharing your photos! I'm 4 months out and it really helps to see folks have such success. I've still got some lbs to lose but I'm headed in the right direction.

237lb...down 1.5lbs from last week. Been hovering around this area for a while. Hopefully when I start going to the gym next week the scale will start moving.

Haha soul mates! Love the angry orchard have you tried the one with Ginger? Also,
Johnny Appleseed rock as well. One cider is all I can handle if I can even finish it.

Yay! Got it!

Hey everyone! I created a Facebook closed group page. I believe all you do is click the link to be added to the group and then we can begin sharing our items. Any member can add ppl but they will need to be approved by admin to prevent spam.

I hope this works! Open to suggestions let me know what we need to do!

Maybe we can create a Facebook page for the DMV area? Make it a closed group? Where we can post pics of our clothes and arrange meetups?
