This seems to be a running theme on a lot of sites today. To a similar post this was my response: Proud of you girl! You're killin it. You are what they term a.."Good Sleever". I will say as an overweight person who is somewhat "New" fat and has been of normal weight for many years without effort. I used to think the same of those who were heavy. How could you let yourself get big? How could you put yourself through that? But now having lived as a heavy person, being a possible pre-sleever, my view has widened. I see those people with food addictions and those met with tragedy post surgery be "Bad Sleevers". I'm not sure which I'll be, but in theory I'd love to be a good sleeve patient. One who eats right, shakes old habits, and works out consistently. And, I will put my every intention there. But I know that to have gotten to the size I am now, I am addicted to something. We will have to see where the proverbial OA chips fall. I don't eat condiments of any kind, never have - but my ass has been eating something. And like most people, something has been eating me too. I can only hope.. I've found it. Soothed it and put it to rest. I am hoping my peers, friends, and supporters understand if I get it wrong. Sent from my LG-K428 using the BariatricPal App

One of my FB friends is about 6 weeks post sleeve and posted today that she doesn't understand how people could eat poorly after a surgery. As she is making the right choices. I hope we can all support each other on our individual journeys. Practice is far dirtier than Theory. In my opinion... Sent from my LG-K428 using the BariatricPal App

I agree this works for a few ppl that I know too. Mainly, my Mom who is 9yrs out RNY and maintaining her loss. I've seen her go up a bit and back down. She initially had a stricture but even after has had a really tight restriction. She had to graze to eat. It worked. Sent from my LG-K428 using the BariatricPal App

Woohoo! Looking great! Sometimes I just wonder, can I just stop overeating? So hard to imagine. Sent from my LG-K428 using the BariatricPal App

Me too, I started at 330 lb and I am 5'4. I was sleeved on 11/28, and I am already down under 300 lbs. Congratulations on your loss, it's not just the sleeve, you are working your butt off, literally...it isn't like we don't have to try! Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App Congrats!

That's when I want to schedule mine! 2 years ago on that date I was crossing the street when I got hit by a ford F250 and I was already big but gained a lot of weight from that. I want to have it on that day as bringing my life back to right. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App That is so awesome! How are you? Healing and well I hope!

Big sticks are my favorite! Writing them on the list for after surgery! Sent from my LG-K428 using the BariatricPal App

Congrats Girl! Looking good and Happy! It is so good reading comments from post sleevers because as a pretty sleever, I question this path, journey, decision every single day. I'm in awe of the progress and movement I see all around me but somehow wonder if it is possible for me too. I am also 5'2" tall but weighing in at 300+, I absolutely know what I need to do.
