    Congratulations on losing 30 pounds. I don't know about you, but pre-surgery, my metabolism was so wrecked that losing any weight was a miracle.
    As you are probably just now figuring out, the sleeve is not a manic surgery. It is a tool to use in conjunction with healthy eating and exercise to help us reach our goals. It doesn't work by itself.
    Are you following your surgeon's plan?
    Are you getting in all of your Protein and fluids every day?
    Are you taking your Vitamins and supplements as directed?
    Are you exercising?
    Have you met with your NUT lately? What does he or she advise?
    Now is a good time to take stock and go back to basics of you aren't happy with your progress.

    I just want to share with anyone who is in the fence about having this surgery that you should go for it! I will Celebrate my Surgi-versary tomorrow and it literally changed my life!! I've lost 130 lbs and am now in a size 6/small; I actually like myself for the first time ever in my 52 years of life;I've never been healthier or happier! It's NOT the easy way out by any means--it's work like you've never done before--but it is soooo worth it! That's all for now--keep up the good work y'all!

    Awesome. I was just asked to have my network picture updated because it isn't "current" (it was taken just before surgery). #NSV
