One Month out

I had my surgery on September 3, 2009. My surgery was done by Dr. Alfons Pomp at NYP hospital. In one month I have lost 49 Pounds. I have gone down 6" around my waist. I have gone from a tight 4X shirt to a loose 3X. I am walking daily and hoping to be able to expand my workouts after I see the Dr. on Monday. I have been lucky enough to be out of work for the whole month as I really have used this time to heal and focus on myself. I have started talk therapy to try to circumvent the head hunger.

Getting sleeved was the best decision I have made for myself. While I know I have a long way to go I really feel like I have the tools that I need to be successful. Thanks to everyone here as this forum helped me decide on this surgery. The fourm has also been helpful with my after surgery questions.

Congratulations! That is excellant! Keep up the great work!

Wow, you are doing fabulous! You should be very proud of all that you have accomplished already.

Great job on your success so far! I'm two months out tomorrow, and am more and more happy that I chose this tool as well.

No stall yet! The best part about is that I have not been hungery. I have been eating between 500 and 700 calories a day. I know the stall will come but for now I am feeling pretty good!
