  16. I feel for you, honey. I was in the same boat! I am now 2 years post op and loving my life! For the first 10 days I was miserable and hated my decision. Everyone on this site was amazing and told me it would get better. They were right! It gets better hang in there! I found that chewing or sucking on ice chips helped get some water down and also, making Popsicles with the flavored protein helped me to get it down.

  23. Haha, thank you Mark you look amazing as well!
  24. You will get there Beth! I was the exact same way. Now I wish I would've taken a lot more pics to show my before. I used to hide from the camera and now I love it.
  25. Everyone looks amazing!!! I remember when I first signed up for this website to see what I was getting myself into. On September 11, 2014 I decided to have the sleeve done. My highest weight was 290 pounds. My surgery weight was 275 and my current weight today is 123. This was the best decision I have ever made! Wish I would've done it sooner!
  26. Yay! So happy I'm not the only one with "shrinking feet syndrome"! Lol I went from a size 9 to7 1/2. I am about 17 months post op.
  27. Hey all! I have lost a total of 160 pounds. My starting weight was 290 before surgery. My surgery date(9/11/2014) I weighed in at 275. I reached my goal weight of 130 pounds @ 16 months. Now I'm just staying steady at 130 pounds
  28. If you are asking me, no i didn't have skin surgery. But I'm hoping to have a tummy tuck within the next year or so. I do have a little skin sagging going on in the belly area.
  29. I haven't done a before and after in a while, so here it is! Heaviest weight:290 Sleeved on Sept 11, 2014 Current weight: 130
