Ok I'm still going... I'm loving this!! I'm down another pound which makes for a total of 5 lbs since I started. Woo hoo! The best part was I was about a week into a complete stall. Well- that's over now!! I'll probably go for at lest 4 more days. Thank you @@Elode!!! I owe you BIG time!!!

Just wanted to let you know that I was also a sugar addict. It's basically all I ate. Craving were out of this world crazy strong. Since I was sleeved July 22nd my taste has changed do much. It's not even an issue any more. I have been successful so far- down 84lbs since the 2 week pre op diet. I think you'll do AWESOME!!

I am so excited today! ! I got on the scale and it read 199!! I am 12 weeks out as of today and I reached my first major milestone- I'm under 200lbs! That is a total loss of 75lbs (68lbs since surgery 75 including the 2wk pre op diet) I am so happy! I have gone from a size 24 to a size 16. This surgery has literally saved my life. It is BY FAR the best money I could ever have spent!! I am so thankful everyday that I was able to do this. This forum has given me the best support system. I know that whenever I have questions or doubts I can get answers and support right here. It is an amazing tool. My next goal is to get to a size 12 by Christmas.... fingers crossed!!

In!! Current is 191. Goal is 176. I can't wait!!

My mom. I lost her when I was 17. I think she would be happy that I finally took control of weight and health.

I have had the blue jeans thing happen to me too!! I freaked out. I had just changed from my jeans to sleep shorts and was sitting in bed and noticed my legs and hands were blue. I finally realized it was from my jeans. I had been touching them with my hands. I was SO relieved!! LOL

After explaining my surgery to my 5 year old son he looked at me and said 'So you have a FrankenTummy?' So from that day on my sleeve became FrankenTummy.
