I was sleeved April 20th. I'm done 30 pounds but I lost 10 before surgery. I'm at a stall and frustrated. I get my Protein and Water in daily, take two Multi Vitamins and Calcium daily. I'm having a hard time exercising because my knees are bad. I can sure feel the difference in my clothes. It's great to see how others are doing. I'm thankful for this site and all of you!!

I was sleeved on 4/10 also. Down 42 pounds. I need to start exercising. I'm trying to find a place with a pool that doesn't cost too much.

Hi all! I had surgery 4/18, and am down 32 pounds... I know we all lose differently, but I'm a little worried this is too slow. I'm losing 1-2 pounds a week at this point. Is this normal? Any suggestions on how I can get the scale to move a little faster??

8 weeks today and I am enjoying the beach with my daughter on our girls trip! Just finished bronzed grouper. Eating has been rocky but I love my sleeve. I'm a slow loser. When I left town I was down 22 lbs and sitting at 200.0 hoping for onderland when I get home! So happy! Best wishes to all the April sleevers!

I am a long way from onelander, BUT... I have to admit yesterday was the first day I got up, got dressed and really felt like I had lost weight. I mean, I just felt thinner. I am sitting at 285 and I know for those of you that are way less, you probably think...REALLY????? At 285!!!! But.... I came from a high weight of 368, so I really do feel thinner now. My arms hang closer to my sides. I can feel my lower leg bones, my collar bones, etc. My summer clothes are starting to hang on me, but I really don't want to buy clothes until winter. A new bra, that I think I will just have to break down and go buy maybe this weekend. I can officially say, I am no longer a DD.

Well, that is my victory for this week. I actually feel thinner....better....happy....in control of my food. Wow, those have all been a long time in coming. Cheers everyone and here is to a fab rest of the week and a wonderful weekend!

<p>Hello April sleevers I was sleeved on April 10th and I weighed in at 235 I am now 198 and feeling so much better about myself. I can practically eat anything. Its learning how to detect when I had enough or a certain type of food that just dont work. When ever that happens I dont throw up but I salivate like a dog for about 10 minutes. Terrible feeling especially if im out:(

I was sleeved on April 19th and weighed 287 day of surgery. Today, I'm at 240. I am feeling great. It hasn't all been easy, but definitely worth it. I have learned a lot about my relationship with food!

Sleeved here in Dallas Texas on 4/10 weighed in at 261 and now I am 220. Without my sleeve I would not have lost anything and prob gained more. Took a couple weeks to realize this is just a tool and not a miracle. Pisses me off when people say things like "just fourth one pounds" or "that's it".......trying to stay away from the haters.....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
