March 24th will be 1 year. Weight loss has slowed as I still drink a lot, but so far I've lost 152lbs.

I have gone from 379 to 227. I feel great. I get hit on in the grocery store. This has been an amazing ride. I'm so lucky to have had this resource to learn and help me thru my journey.

For those of you still thinking about this, it is a non issue. Just do it! This is the best thing thats ever happened to me!

I would like to add, before surgery I was pre-diabetic. now I'm not. Pre-surgery I was on blood pressure meds, now I'm not. And last week I was told by my sleep doctor to throw away my CPAP machine, because now I don't have sleep apnea!

So excited!!!!

Will post pics at 1 year

Heck yeah post some inspiring pics for the newly sleeved here. Motivation is awesome and congratulations on your successful weight loss!

I feel sort of lost in this sleeve world, I started out trying to get the DS but because of my thyroid cancer I was told I could only get sleeved for right now. I started out at a pre op weight of 288 and I now weigh 251 , my surgery was Dec. 14th, I'm feeling not as successful because it will be 2 months and I haven't lost a lb since January 14th, has anyone else had this slow down is this normal? I don't eat sugar, fat, i throw up a lot due to stuff not staying down and I drink all day water, milk and crystal light....I excercise for 1 hour a day and the weight is still not coming off..starting to feel like it might have been a mistake.
