This is a miracle! I've never felt better in my life. Even when I lost 110 (and gained it back) I don't remember feeling this good. No more metabolic syndrome, no more apnea, no pains in my feet or ankles, my knees are fine. Feeling deprived was my big thing in the past, cheated often, could hardly wait to eat again.

Not this time. No beers or sodas -- I miss the occaisional beer, but not that much. I rarely eat bread unless it's fabulous, famous, or absolutely unavoidable. No pasta, not even the good-for-you kind. I love both bread and pasta, but I don't feel deprived. I think the reason is because it's my choice, not a program requirement. I'm the one who's in charge.

Here I am now, down 5 sizes and below what I thought was my goal and still drifting downward. Un believeable.

Great job good for you I love the positive energy you have and the approach you are taking when it comes to your weight lost. Keep reaching for the moon and you will touch the stars.What was your starting weight?

Sooo encouraging and inspiring!! I'm 5 weeks post op and have felt like I'm going to be the one who gets the surgery but doesn't lose the weight even though I haven't had a major stall yet!! I hope I'll be the one saying this a year from now!!

Thank you do much for the post!

Cool, wtg! Glad you are so successful

Fantastic! Good for you! Glad you did it without feeling deprived, too. That can make the journey a whole lot easier.

Keep the positive lights shining.

I agree -- How encouraging! I'm happy for you! :wub: Thank you for sharing!

I am also 5 weeks post-op. I have been at 182 lbs for the past 3 weeks. Definitely losing inches though!

I hope I can say that I am at goal, or below goal a year from now, God willing!

I'm 8 weeks BEFORE surgery and I definitely feel like I will be the First Person In History not to lose weight the the Sleeve! LOL....
