  1. look at you!! Beautiful!! Do you have any success tips? I'm feeling very discouraged..I had the sleeve in June..I'm losing on an average between 7-8 lbs per month..would you say that is normal? And losing tons of hair..help!
  2. wow!! That's amazing!! Do you feel better? wow!! Great job! What are your stats! Looking really good!
  3. you look AMAZING!! Could you tell us how long it took you? Any pointers or advice? Did you have any stalls and do any thing specific to get yourself moving again if so...?
  4. how long between the before and after pics?
  5. you look great!! Tell us your secrets!
  6. 3 1/2 months wow!! Did you stall at the beginning at all??
  7. Absolutely beautiful!! May I ask what are your stats? How long did it take you? Thank you. I started at 267, I am now 142 ish. From a size 22 jeans to a 6/8 jeans, my tops were 2xl, and I am now a size small top sometimes extra small tops, I still can't believe it. I had my surgery on May 31, 2013. It took my 10 months to lose all my weight. I had 800 calories, and worked out/ walked 5 times a week. Didn't cheat, and eat extremely well. I hope that helps. If you have anymore questions please let me know. how tall are you?
  8. looking great..have you been on a steady downward slope or did you have any plateaus? Is 57 lbs with preop diet or just since surgery?Thank you @DreamsComeTrue15. 12 lbs was during the week before surgery preop diet and the rest during. I've hit two stalls. The first was at about 3 weeks exactly. It lasted me about two weeks. The second one I have just finished and lasted me THREE weeks, yuppp three weeks... Smh. It sucked. I was beginning to think maybe I've just hit where my body is comfortable with. I was so afraid that I wasn't going to meet my goal of (125) and I wasted time, money and surgery for nothing. But I remembered my surgeons advice telling me, if you get into a stall, boost your Protein by 20+ grams and add exercises to your routine mix it up you'll be out of it... Did it for two days and now I am a believer that you must mix up your norm. I lost two lbs just by doing that. Starting weight, 240's Sugery Date, 228 Today, 183 GOAL, 125 (never been in my adult life). Age, 30 5' 3/4" Beautiful!! Great job. TY for sharing, keep up the awesome work..you are doing wonderful! I can't wait to be able to post some after pics!
  9. Great job!!! Keep up the great work! When did you have your surgery?

  11. looking great..have you been on a steady downward slope or did you have any plateaus? Is 57 lbs with preop diet or just since surgery?
  12. wow great job!! You've really lost a lot so quick..are you excercising alot..what's your secret?
  13. did you swell at first, so that it appeared you had not lost anything? Just had mine done 3 days ago, scale hasn't moved yet :-(It's common during the first few days not to see any scale movement. You've just had major surgery. Concentrate on healing and following the plan your Dr. gave you and don't worry about the scale for a while! There is definitely swelling from the procedure.thank you! Yes I will definitely just concentrate on healing but am very excited to see the scale move. Thanks for the help; -)
  14. Ok did you swell at first, so that it appeared you had not lost anything? Just had mine done 3 days ago, scale hasn't moved yet :-(
  15. so any secrets to success? Do you excercise a lot? Eat anything special? Looking great!
  16. Hi you look great! I'm almost due for my surgery, just a few days left. Would you mind telling me why you feel the 1st month was so hard? Just so I know what to expect..
