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!!!!

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.

First few days are extremely tough. But I'm now on day 12 and I'm like a new person. Trust the process. Things will get better. I'm here for support. Keep going ur doing great xo

It will!!! U just need to let the gas pass . Ask doctor for some medicine for nausea. Keep going u will do great!b [emoji176]

I'm good. I'm going for my follow up with my surgeon on Tuesday to get cleared for work. Getting the puréed foods down is still difficult. I get a lot of bubbles / air and it makes me feel like I need to burp. Ugh [emoji58] but I'm not gonna complain I lost 30 lbs but now the past 4 days have weighed in the same every day. I heard it's common to plateau after surgery a little and then start losing again. How's everything with u

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

The first 3 days suck. Until you pass gas. I felt like a balloon ready to pop. And once all the gas passed I felt like a new person!! Speedy recovery xx

I'm from Rhode Island

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'm loving life!!!!! Love sharing our journeys Xo

You will do great. It's the best decision I've made. I feel so good I'm on a new path. Good luck and keep posted!
