So, for the past few months I have been reading the posts of many sleevers here. Tonight I have decided to start tracking and reporting the changes in my life. I really have a pet peeve about calling this "my weight loss journey" because I fell like a journey is something you do without a goal in mind...I have a goal in mind and I am on more of a mission!! A mission to become active, happy and most of all healthy. Hoping I can meet some folks here that will help keep me on target to complete my mission.

Lol I don't like it called a journey either for some reason. And I refused to say "I'm getting sleeved" lol makes me feel weird

I totally agree with you on the word "sleeved". I know it's common business practice these days to "verb" nouns. For example, my boss said to me this morning, "You've been tasked with this project and I need you to action it immediately. You've been goaled at 78%.". It drives me crazy for some reason.

So the word "sleeved" makes me bristle as well for this reason.

      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! 😞
