hi everybody, I miss u all. I was sleeved 29/10/2009. I lost so far 66 pounds. I need to lose 27.5 more pounds. I am almost five monthes out now. am i going to continue losing? can u tell me at which time after surgery your body stopped losing? I am not exercising regularly apart from walking like 30 minutes a day and may be more some days.

I heard that you can still lose weight one year away from surgery. is this true? I feel much better already but I need to have a normal BMI and can't wait to see my dream coming true.

Hi sweetie. I haven't been sleeved yet but I thought I'd bump this up for you because I'm curious about it too. It does seem like the general opinion is that the people who are considered "lightweights" at the time of surgery tend to lose weight more slowly. I think you'd probably fit into that category since your starting BMI was under 40.

Congratulations on your progress so far!

I would say you probably do need to exercise more. Are you tracking your calories and your carbs? Most people lose best when they keep their carbs at 30 grams or less per day.
