    This is so awesome! Congrats! And thanks for the motivation:) I feel like I'm looking into my future! I had the sleeve done 1/31/17 and just had my 2nd post op follow up Appt and I'm down 33lbs since surgery putting me at 53lbs overall in about two months. I'm a polynesian dancer so I do hardcore cardio workouts with my team two hours twice a week and go to the gym 3-4 times a week. You look fantastic!!!

    First, I swear by Vitagene. It's expensive each month but so worth it.

    I set reminders and then my roomie set a back up one because I suck so bad at remember even with an alarm.

    I have a pill container for the week, and I downloaded an app called round and set a reminder for each pill. It has been a lifesaver.

    I bought the container for the month. I also take them after a shake am, 12pm , 5pm those times have made it easier being on a schedule

    I'm still pre-op, but I take daily Vitamins and have a pretty good system going. Basically, I figured out what time of day I'm most likely to take them, and where I would be at that time of day. I hate taking my multi in the morning, and usually forget to take my vitamins before bed, so I take them right after I get off work. I work from home and keep all my vitamins on my desk, so when I'm logging off work, that's my queue to take them.

    I have a couple of daily silent alarm/reminders that go off through the day. I try to time them with my usual meals.
    As to the Vitamins making you feel sick to your stomach try taking them with food. My Calcium pills don't bother me any but my multi can make me feel sick. I try to take those in the middle of eating lunch to help mask it. I've tried to take them right after eating and it doesn't work. I need food behind them to keep that ick feeling away.

    I like measurements over weight as it often is more accurate for real success. It is also less eradic, so there is less yo -yo

    I still sometimes think someone's playing a joke on me - after 10 years of feeling awful, my body finally feels really healthy and I'm loving what I see in the mirror.
    Best thing I've ever done!

    Yes I do have loose skin on my stomach, inner thighs and arms. I will be talking with a surgeon about removing it once I'm done losing
