  1. CW 315.8! 5.2 lbs down in a week! I'll take it!
  2. Thanks ladies! I definitely need to learn how to slow down. I barely got in half of my meal when I had to run off, and not even 10 minutes had passed since I had begun. @@MyssJones, sleeping on my side right now is so painful. I feel kind of like I pulled a muscle. =/
  3. Hey everyone! I was sleeved 12/29, and started my puree stage today. I believe I ate too fast and got nauseous, which in turn made me vomit. Now every time I bend down or try to turn (while in bed), I feel this pain by my belly button, kind of like I'm being stabbed with something sharp!!! What could it be?! Has anyone experienced anything similar?!?!
  4. That's amazing! You're doing great! I'm sorry to hear about your son...
  5. I second Super Dave's suggestion! Milk of Magnesia worked within 20 minutes for me! Make sure you get it flavored because the original one has a disgusting after taste!
  6. @@x57114 great job! I'm also 5'10" with a goal of 170! I just got sleeved 2 weeks ago, but started off almost 50 lbs heavier than you. How's your skin?
  7. Great job ladies! I'm down 13 since surgery(12/29), and 10 from pre-op, so 23 lbs since 12/22! Can't complain!!!
  8. I'm a week and a day out. I haven't felt actual hunger yet, but my mind tells me it wants to eat. I cook all types of deliciousness for my husband and children, and a part of me wants to try it, but I'll drink some water, soup or protein and I'm ok. I was a big emotional eater. I won't lie to you. 4 days out, I wanted a piece of chicken sooooo bad, I took a bite of it, chewed the living day lights out of it, spit it out, then rinsed my mouth! Lol
  9. The hardest part of the first two weeks are the soreness in your belly and wanting to eat things you can't have. It's all mental hunger, because in actuality you are full after just a few sips. You will do fine.

  11. I had to download tapatalk in order to upload a picture.
  12. @@queensleever05 clear liquids all week (besides protein), between 64-96 oz daily. Down another 3 lbs today. How about you? What's your diet like? What are your stats? I'm 5'10" sw-333 cw-323.
  13. @@Mrs. Vee I feel you on the big boobs! Carrying H's! Can't wait to lose some!
  14. @@queensleever05, how are you feeling today?
  15. @@Mrs. Vee I find that if I hold in my stomach, it feels better. Yesterday I was wearing compression yoga pants and could barely feel a thing.
  16. YOU ARE ROCKING THAT SLEEVE!!! YOU GO GIRL!
  17. It does, but maybe you're a quick loser!
  18. Wow @@queensleever05 that's amazing!!!!
  19. 4 Days out, 7 lbs. down! Loving the sleeved life!!
  20. That's awesome! You both look great! Congratulations!!!
  21. We've been friends for 17 years. I would hope this wouldn't end our friendship, but I really didn't appreciate her snarky comments.
  22. I was just sleeved 12/29. SW: 333, my goal for this challenge is 300. Hope I make it! I'm excited to join in on my first challenge!
  23. @@PerfectlyImperfect88 I'm sorry things didn't go well...how are you feeling today?
  24. You know!!! As I mentioned, I haven't been hungry, but I soooo miss chewing! Lol I think it's a mental thing right now!
