  1. 32/34. Was there once and want to be there again. Began in 50/52 (worn at the waist not below the belly). Currently about to go into 46 inch. Sleeved three weeks ago.

    So was sleeved on July 16 and everything is going great. Down 50lbs total and 22 since surgery. So now my nut has even warned me of the upcoming stall. How long does it last? Week /2 weeks? Not that it matters but looking for experience. Tks
  3. Sleeved on the 16th and went back to work today. Feels good to be doing something besides focusing on water and protein shakes lol. Only outstanding effect is I will sometimes get light headed if I am not careful standing up fast etc. My Dr has already cut my high blood pressure meds in half. May be off them sooner than later
  4. Got my sleeve on the 16th and each day things get better. I can already see a big difference but I don't step on scales at home just at the doctors. I use my clothes at home to see how I am doing. Working on getting my shakes to taste different/better any suggestions would be great. Good luck everyone.
  5. Sounds like the gas pains I get when trying to drink. Seems any movement from my new stomach makes the gas move around and whamo. Walk a such as u can to move it around and try gas x. It helps me but I'm only two days into this new chapter. Best of luck it gets better each day
  6. Glad u all think I going the right way. Today ( day 2 at home). I am noticing that not every sip is taken with instant protest. I was able to split a full shake between breakfast and dinner today. Had broth with some unflavored protein mixed in but not much as it was the first time I tied it. Sipping on g2 and h2o all day other wise. Thanks!
  7. Had mine Wednesday too and yup the gas is the worst part. I will be following along for suggestions
  8. So I just got my sleeve two days ago. I was home the next day. Today was my first full day home and besides gas pain I feel great. I worked hard for 6 months to prepare and its paying off. So my question is in the first few days how much can you drink? I have been drinking the same shake for two meals now. Things are tight and can only get so much in. I don't want to push it and risk damaging my sleeve but am I getting enough for the first day home? Water seems to be ok since u sip all day. Got about 30 oz of water in so far today.
