Hey everyone! Hope everyone is doing well! Just checking in...I was sleeved on 9/22 and have lost 60 plus lbs. feeling great! The last 15lbs are so hard.

My daughter is 8 she knows and has seen me change so far. She comments mom you look skinny. Lol but she doesn't care either way it seems lol my son will be 4 next month he's oblivious as some men are lol

Definitely true! I was surprised when my boyfriend said those things. It's nice that your docs office have that information because mine didn't say anything about it. It all makes sense but until it was happening to me I didn't even think about it.

I love my men with some extra fat! Lol my boyfriend is 6'4 but about 280 he's cute and has a big belly and he enjoys eating my leftovers hahaha! But no really when I decided to get the surgery he became distant and finally I said something to him. He admitted he was afraid id leave him after losing weight. I've always been confident in my size maybe not at my happiest but I always thought I had a pretty face and I dressed for my size appropriately and tried to look nice. I'm 7 weeks post op now and 30lbs down. I've noticed more looks and the compliments are amazing! He is back to normal now. Telling me things like...damn it your boobs are smaller haha joking of course with disappointment. But he compliments me a lot too so I think he's enjoying the weight loss more than he thought he would. So far it hasn't had an impact but I do wonder. Especially when more and more people notice. I have 50 lbs left to goal and he tells me all the time that's too much. Well see but yes I truly believe woman are more inclined to like the cute fat boys then the guys are inclined to like the cute car girls.

Sleeved 9/22. I eat softer foods but am in solids. Protein first and have introduced veggies. Softer ones cooked like zucchini and broccoli. I do eat salad a lot. I chew it good and my sleeve handles it very well. I too battles with the uncomfortable full feeling but it seems to
Get better and you just kind of know. I eat slowly and take breaks. Tonight for dinner had tuna with light mayo. Maybe ate half the can at most probably closer to 1/4. As soon as I start to feel full I stop. If I feel like what I've eaten is settled I may indulge in another bite. I just listen to the signs of my body. I noticed I used to get one hiccup when I was reaching the to full feeling. Now that's stopped because I seem to know before that now. I do get hungry. I feel an empty growling feeling. It's all about listening to my body more.

You're fine! Enjoy your treat and get back to it! Maybe adding some healthy carbs back into your diet may stop the fast weight loss. Don't beat yourself up. We are all human plus it's all moderation. You deserve it after all the hard work you've done!

My doctor told me that the pouch won't stretch that much because when they cut part of the stomach out it's the part that stretches the most. So, I wouldn't worry about stretching your sleeve.
