Yes it is possible or I am making a big mistake. :)

Actually, it may take some time and effort but I am sure you can do it. I have a high goal also but know we can do it.

I have a friend who lost 200 lbs with the sleeve, stopped to have a baby, lost the minimal baby weight, and is still dropping. You can do this!

Most definately You Can Do This! My surgeons nurse lost over 250lbs in just about under 2 years after her sleeve, she is the one who convinced me not to get the Lap Band and to get the Sleeve instead. She looks Fantastic and doesn't closely resemble her pic at 300lbs. It won't happen over night but with diligence you can do this! :D

My surgeon thinks there is this 1 year magical mark where you stop losing weight. I have learned from these boards that it's just baloney.

You can lose as much as you want.

Jimbo, on the Obesity Help forum, has lost more that 300 lbs with his sleeve. It's certainly possible if you stay focused, patient, and disciplined.

To date I have lost 147 pounds...in almost 10 months (well 10 months tommorow).

It is definitely do-able and attainable. I started at 330.

I have included exercise atleast 5 days a week, early on I was doing 2 gym sessions a day, i am down to mostly one a day now....I have incorporated additional exercise into my life, by walking 2 and from work and when I need to go places.

I eat pretty much as I wish nowadays, and still follow alot of the rules, Protein, low carb and veggies. I do now allow myself Snacks which are less healthy.

It is possible however it does require a lot of HARD work on my part.

      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! 😞
