Yes. I started my journey on December 4th of last year and was operated on July 18th. It was less than 7 months. I was so focused on all of my appointments and things I had to get done for my insurance to approve that I never had time to worry about it. I was sleeved 5 months ago and am down a total of 102 lbs since surgery. But almost 120 total since starting my journey. I look like a completely different person and feel amazing. No more sleep apnea and no more diabetes!!!! U will do. Great

Hi everyone it's been a little since si posted. Just wanted to share. I'm 20 days post op. And I'm already down over 35 lbs !!!!  

Check out my side by side pics of the progress!!!!

Today I weighed in 8 days post op 30 lbs lighter. I'm down 30 lbs it was empowering. I finally was cleared to walk on tredmill and ride bike at gym so I went to my gym and did a 30 minute bike ride and then had to run to the mall to buy a summer dress for my best friends engagement party in 2 weeks and I was one full size down. This is literally only ONE week post op.


I'm onto puréed foods as well and for dinner tonight I got to purée a bean chili with fat free sour cream and a little fat free Mexican cheese. My ninja made it so smooth and it was beyond delicious. My biggest incision where they removed the stomach is the only one that is sore but my doctor said that's normal.

I am 6 days post op from Vsg and the only incision that hurts is the one that the stomach was pulled out of... it feels sore and almost tender. No redness, no heat, doesn't feel infected but def feels like a pulled muscle almost..... is this normal?????? Please help. I'm kind of freaking

I'm allowed to have flavored so I have vanilla. chocolate and strawberry EAS whey 2 scoops per shake. Low carb and 30 grams protein. It's delicious with almond milk and a banana all mixed in the ninja.

Amazing!!!!! Right? Takes forever to get it down but just the chocolate taste hits the spot !!! I had my surgery on the same day as you. Goodluck with everything

Having not lost weight for nearly two weeks after surgery, I was starting to stress even thought I had heard of the three week stall. I then read this article and discussed it with my husband who's a meat science who confirmed its accuracy. A breath of relief and kept doing what I was supposed to and weight started dropping quickly again. Thought I'd share if someone else was experience and wondering what was going on. Here's the link: The article I read

Also, Barbie I am still adjusting too I'm so thankful the puree stage starts for me on Tuesday....

The one thing I'm loving right now is high Protein fat free Greek yogurt. It's my life savor right now

Yes I would love to have support going on. Today I finally got to have high Protein non fat vanilla geek yogurt. It was so delicious and it was a nice little break from the constant shakes. My yogurt had 12 grams of protein and one serving size was perfect I am pleasantly full. Now I will wait a half hour to start drinking the Water again. How's everyone else today xoxo
