Wow I was sleeved January 30, 2012 and boy can I say Life has been good. Although I have slowed down in losing weight. I am still losing inches and my Health couldn't be any better. I am currently 75 pounds down and so far I am off my Diabetes meds, I am down to only taking 1 blood pressure med pill. I went from a size 24 in women clothing to a 16-18. I still have about 70 more pounds I want to lose. It feels great to know It is a goal that can be reached. I am one of the lucky ones to have no complications so far and I just wanted to say that the surgery saved my life. I do not regret it nor am I ashamed that I had to do it. when all else failed.Just felt like sharing my story.......

Doing great keep it up. I love reading stories and seeing pics. It keeps me motivated. I won't be sleeved until March 2013.

Good for you chigga77. Life has been good for me too. So glad i have the sleeve. Can't wait to reach my next goal 14/16.

This is exactly what I needed to read right now. Congrats to you and keep up the good work!

CHIGGA: Congrats! I does feel really good to not have any complications with the sleeve. I have lost 77 lbs and feel great. the only struggles I have is with my head hunger. LOL This is going to be a life time struggle but I'll take it, just need to change how I see things.

Thanks everyone. @ms skinniness Yes head hunger is annoying lol. But you have to stay strong. I've learned that over eating will only make you sick. I battled with the head hunger and would push the limits and be in the bathroom giving the food back to the earth lol. Not a good feeling but it does get easier with time. And to everyone else Who have not done it yet. Good luck and stay focused. We will see you on the losing and getting healthier side...

Is there any tricks that help with head hunger...I know I will be one to gets a hunger headache.

Nope lol. Its just mind over matter. You just trick your brain into not liking things anymore. Like for me. SODA I had a big issue with that. Now I won't touch it
