I was 492 on October 2 2018 and today I just weighed 5 min ago and Im 314 so minus 178 so far.I did the sleeve and no trouble feeling hungry and can eat anything I want but still get full very quick if I eat the proper foods.Protein first the non starchy vegetable and if I have room then fruit .You will have to work at this it is not a majic pill .I can eat bad things and eat more of them like ice cream,chips, ect cause they are easy and soft but when you eat dense Protein I get full quick.Just do your resurch and listen to your doctors .

If you do it monthly it will be cool to see them all side by side in a row in a year

Well I think it will matter how heavy you start and how muck you expect to loose.In my case I started at 492 at 6 feet tall and I have lost 60 lbs so far and I am likeyou I cant tell a difference in pics but I notice other ways like you.I would say what ever youdo take the pics with the same exact clothes on with the same position and background weather it be monthly or a certain amount of pounds.

Ya it sucks I was 19th around 5 pm or so.I came home Tuesday 20th around 8 pm.I have been having trouble getting my Water in.I am doing better day by day.Today I should be t at least 50 oz.So it is getting better.I was prepared to be miserable first 2 weeks though.I Was calling around like crazy today trying to find a urgent care that would do IV drip so I dont have to spend crazy mny at emergency room just for fluids.I found one so at least if I get to a point where i think i need it I can go.

well tomorrow is the day I have to be at the hospital at 3:30 pm.I was hopeing for a morning surgery so I wouldnt have so much time to think about it.Im down almost 40 lbs since my first meeting with the surgeon on October 2nd so I think that is pretty good.I am having trouble with allergys so eyes are itchy and im sneezing but I got some liquid benadril for when I get home.This is gonna be a intresing journey .Im gonna try to follow program as strict as possible to drop as much as possible in first year.Cant remamber wat it feels like to be in the low 200's

I like a good beer from time to time but I think for me Im gong to get down to the weight i need to be at.Then if I am eating good and working out everyday then a beer or small glass of wine before bed would be ok.Just need to keep in check as not to get out of hand and start regaining.I know someone who did good for 4.5 years after vsg then the last year has been drinking a case of beer and a bottle of wisky a week and has put 70 lbs back on and he knows thats the problem .

Anyone get sick before surgery date and did they postpone or keep your date?I am scheduled for November 19th and I think I am getting sick.I thought it was just allergy but not sure .I guess i will see how I feel Monday and call the surgeon .

Well from a guys look at it.I want to start going to the gym and do as much as I can as soon as I am givin the ok to do so from my surgeon so Protein will be very important .I figure the gym will help a little with extra skin in the long term.Besides Im a carnivore by nature.

I have trouble all the time .I think I dont drink enough Water consistently but when I need a clean out I do 2 tablespoons of epsensalt in water with half a lemon juice and 2 hours later i am going.This always seems to work right at the 2 hour mark.
