March Roll Call!

So I am having my surgery on March 15th with Dr. Kelly in Tijuana, MX. I would love to make friends with some fellow March 2012 sleevers to share the journey....

Bravtvp63 - That means you must be my long lost twin :P

Chacha, it could be possible. I'm adopted and we could have been separated at birth! Hahaha

I'm so proud of myself, I got a prescription for anti-depresants. After that last episode I'm afraid I'll have more if I don't do something about it now, when I'm still healthy enough, mentally, to get my self to the doc.

Okay - now that's just weird! I'm adopted too!!!!

Good for you! I'm really glad you did it.

ChaCha - we have so many similarities that it's almost scary.

Thanks Cha cha, for some reason getting the script is the hardest part. How are you doing?

I'm doing great! Really loving my sleeve. It is definitely the best decision I've made in a loooooong time!

Well I'm down 41.5 lbs. I was sleeved on 3/15 and started at 288. I weighed myself yesterday and I was down 41.5. Awesome.

Congratulations! Way to go!!!!

I'm curious what you guys are experiencing in terms of capacity for the different meals throughout the day. I'm able to eat (just recently) more than I thought I'd be able to in the mornings, and not quite as much at lunch, but I'm having a hard time with dinner. I skip it most nights, or just have a drink. I'd really hoped the issue of varying restriction was a thing of the past (from my lapband) but it seems like I'm doomed forever. ;)

BTW, had to get weighed yesterday, seem to be in the second week of a stall. But I'm like a stall *****. I tend to lose a lot very quickly, then stall out to a very moderate overall loss.

Ha! I'm flipped. I'm an afternoon- late eve eater. I have an insatiable appetite when I get home from work. I need a pm snack and usually I get so busy I end up forgetting. Yesterday I was starving after dinner for hours until I finally broke down and ate.

My restriction doesn't seem to fluctuate. About the same amount at each meal. I can eat approximately 1/2 cup at each meal.

I seem to be more hungry in the evening as well. I can also eat about 1/2 cup of food. I can do six ounces of yogurt but it takes me awhile.

Wow you guys are doing great with your weight loss. I'm down 19 lbs since 3/12. Only 2 lbs in the last 4 weeks. Its very discouraging.
