    Mafi Mushkila reacted to Tracyringo in Will gastric sleeve work for me?   
    I have read articles saying the sleeve has more restriction then the RNY . I am 23 months out and still have great restriction. Before the surgery my portion size was huge and I loved cake, ice cream and candy lol. Now I keep all that stuff out of my house and when I want something I go out and get a one serving.
    Either surgery will work and you get out of it what you put into it. You have to remember its a tool. Good luck to you !

    Mafi Mushkila reacted to KT1981 in GOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!   
    After the longest freaking stall I've ever had (just over 2 weeks) it finally broke and I dropped a couple pounds, and as of this morning I have officially met my doctor's goal for me! I now weigh 164.4 (goal was 165) and am aiming for my personal goal of 150 to put me at a healthy BMI. If I get there, I will take aim at 135 for my vanity goal.
    I'm becoming increasingly scared that I'll just stop losing now that I've met the doctor's goal, and I am trying to remind myself that by continuing to eat below my TDEE, and following my nutrition plan, I will continue to lose because that is science. But we all know emotions run high during this process, and sometimes my emotions get the better of me and I panic that I'm done losing before I want to be.
    For now- I shall Celebrate with a delicious Powerade Zero and set my sights on 150! 😊

    Just completed my surgery on the 15th of May along with a Hiatal hernia repair and the first 16 hours was a bit rough but I must say, getting up and walking as they reccomended really helped. I am 2 days out of surgery now and feel like a million bucks! I have no pain, no nausea nothing! I pushed myself very hard during the Preop diet and excercised like a mad man and I really think this helped. My wonderful wife has been a really great partner in this success story.

    Mafi Mushkila got a reaction from tal in YOU GUYS I AM SO EXCITED BUT NEED ADVICE! PLEASE   
    Best advice I can give is to follow your Preop diet and really try to excercise and get ready for the surgery. I just completed mine and I must say I have no adverse side effects and feel great. I am not bragging but I excercised and dieted like a mad man getting ready for this one.
