I was sleeved a week ago in Piedras Negras, Mexico by Dr. Guillermo Alvarez. I could not praise him and his staff enough. They were all super and very accommodating to myself and my guest.

I have just hit 103 lbs down and am about 10 1/2 months out. I feel like I have been a slow loser compared to a lot of folks but mainly because I had a 2 1/2 month stall around the 7 month mark and just started losing again. I was hoping to further down with being this close to being a year out, but I am still incredibly proud of my progress so far and beyond thankful for the opportunity to receive this tool.
Here was a face to face transformation at the 90 lb down mark:

And here is a side by side from the morning of my surgery to my 100 lb down mark wearing the same exact shirt. It's amazing how much longer the shirt looks when it isn't stretched over that tummy!

Late to the party as well, but I live on the outskirts of Houston in Baytown. My insurance had a WLS exclusion so I will be getting sleeved 3 weeks from today in Mexico, just across the border from Eagle Pass.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I kinda knew the answer too but as I said, I guess I was just looking for a little reassurance that the 12 month mark is not the end all and be all. I knew 18 months was the number given to me, I guess I was just getting down on myself with that stall.

Hi all! I am nearing the 11 month mark and am 103 lbs down. I hit a 2 1/2 month stall around month 7 which was really frustrating. I was hoping to be down a lot further at the year mark and I am getting close. Don't get me wrong, I am extremely proud of what I have accomplished so far, but I am just hoping for some stories from those who have been there to help me stay positive. My goal weight that was set at surgery would mean I need to lose another 70, but I would really like to reach the 200 lb down mark.
So, for those who have been there, how much did you continue to lose after the year mark?

Congratulations on your success! I am wondering if you might tell me how much you lost in the first year and then after the year mark. I am nearing the year mark with at least 70 more that I want to lose (and my secret goal of losing another 90 lol) but I guess I am just worried that after I reach that dreaded year mark this may be unattainable. I am incorporating more exercise now and making sure I stick to a low-carb lifestyle. I just want to know there is hope after I got so discouraged here recently during a 2 1/2 month stall.
Again, congratulations...you have done wonderful!!!
