I lost about 80lbs since surgery. 93 since my heaviest. :-) my goal was very modest but I'm happy wearing size ten and mediums

I was sleeved by Dr. Thomas Jones as well on Nov. 1st 2012. I have lost 38 lbs so far. I am in a little stall right now though. It's nice to see someone else getting their sleeve done by him on here :)

That's awesome! Congratulations! I hope that I get there in 9 months too! Also, I have had two mini stalls, is there something I'm doing wrong or should do?! Thanks!!!

I had multiple stalls- your body is adjusting... no worries the scale will move again

Okay, thank you! I needed that so I don't get discouraged loosing weight after this huge operation and lifestyle change! I should also stop weighing everyday. It's just so tempting lol

Im so happy I had my surgery. My 6 months is December 18. I have lost 76 pounds that was at my 3 month. Im not a scale person my doctor and I never set a goal. The both of us agree just work hard lose and as long as I feel good that is all that matters. I was taking so much medicine around 15 pills a day. Now I only take Vitamins. Im a totally new improved me.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
