Hello everyone,

I was sleeved on 11/15/2011 and so far I'm down 30lbs and I'm healing well with a little soreness. I'm walking 2 miles a day.

I would love to hear how all of the Nov. sleevers are doing. Are you still on liquids or eating solid foods, how much have you lost, are you back to normal, what are you doing for excercise? etc. I look forward to hearing from all of you.

Hey Banana Babes-

Congrats!!! Keep up the good work. I will weigh in later this month and keep you posted.

100 percent how are you doing? All Banana Babes, where is everyone and how are you?

I am happy and living! I am losing VERY slowly now but, that is okay by me!

Gino and everyone hope you are all well!

Nice to hear Juli. You will have to let us know what happens. I am still very large busted, but seriously there is no fullness and the girls, well to say they have gone south would be close. They are more like flippers

I would love you get reduction/lift but not sure of qualification now. A few years ago I was too fat according to insurance company.

Good luck!

Hey I was sleeved in November, Ive been losing slow aswell, hoping to be under 200 by my 1 year out.

Happy Camper-

My bariatric surgeon said bmi <30, but primary dr said bmi <28 for a plastics referral. I am so ready.

Hey Ashley, I do know I can definitely eat more now, I sometimes long for that "I can only eat 2tbs" feeling. But overall realize I am within 30 lbs of goal. Weight watchers would have me weighing 145 but I am not sure that is realistic for me. How tall are you? How have you slowed? I am thinking I may need to go and do Diva's bootcamp.

Juli, can't wait to hear how it goes, keep us posted!

Hey Banana Babes,

Its good to hear everyone is doing great at this stage in the game. My doctor said unfortunately after 6 months the 'golden period' for weight loss tends to slow down considerably. I have definitely felt the effects of it and haven't really lost as quickly as before. But i haven't let it get me down, it just means its time to kick the exercise and strength training into overdrive. It's hard to believe i'm so close to my initial goal but i don't plan to stop there. Then it will be a whole new adventure of being in the promised onederland! Best wishes and love to all the banana babers, keep up the good fight!
