Sleevergirl2017

Hi ML 2001, I was sleeved on 11/7 as well! As of last Wednesday, I have lost 36 pounds. I'm happy with it but know that some others have lost way more. Like you, I cannot work out because of a knee injury but am hoping to get to the gym very soon. Doc keeps telling me to swim...good luck finding a (clean) pool in Philadelphia!! Even though my knee is bad, I am walking a lot more than I used to. I use a fitbit and it helps me track my steps and activity. I stay away from most carbs and sugar. I am having a hard time getting in all of my water, so I try to concentrate on that rather than the food, it's a balancing act right now. I wish you luck!

hey all, hope you're doing well. had my sleeve on Nov 7th, resting at home now. really looking forward to the rest of this journey! Edited November 9 by sharkweek My surgery date was November 7th also!! How are you doing? I've done pretty great thus far. I'm looking forward to next week, my birthday (december 19th) will be my six week mark and I'm excited but scared also. I don't want to slip back into old bad habits. I don't think I will but with the holiday's, it's going to be hard not to. I feel great AND I have more energy than I've had in years. I hope you are doing well also.

Congrats! I was sleeved on 11/7/2017 and I felt so happy to be on the other side was well! Good luck!

I don't have any tips for you because the same thing happened to me. I just powered through it and it eventually stopped. I hope the same for you. Good Luck!
