I'm a new vsg to. I started at 244 and 5'4" Jan 2012 then 231 the day of surgery 09/04/12 and 2 weeks later I'm at 214. I've been at

214 for a week though is that normal? I'm so nervous am I doing this right. I research and see other people doing and looking amazing and thinking no way am I gonna look like that. I would love any advice.

Don't worry so much, it's amazing how the sleeve works, you will lose, I promise. All you have to do is follow everything the Dr says, only eat what he says to eat and exercise all you can and the weight will start falling off! I started on June 18 at 334 lbs when I had my sleeve done, and today I'm at 259 lbs, that's 75 lbs! I go to the gym 5 or 6 days a week, I do 30 to 45 min of cardio, weights for my arms and legs and I swim laps every other day. So you can breath easy knowing if you do your part the sleeve will do its part.

Thank you. Just nervous .

Ok well today is my 3 week post surgery and I'm at 211 lbs that 20 pounds since surgery. I'm happy the scale is moving and for once in my looking forward to see what I weigh every week.

Oh I forgot I have a question...I eat 2ozs about 3 times a day and maybe some cottage cheese but when I eat cottage cheese I can eat 3oz somtimes 3.5, that's only with cottage cheese though is that ok? Or should I keep at 2 oz even though it don't fill me?

Ok I am 4 weeks out of surgery and only down a pound for this week, well atleast its something. I weigh in every Tuesday I forgot to post yesterday. On the 4 th is my 1 month so I will weigh in again. I can see a differnce so happy but scared still I'm not going to do as well as the people on here. My bigest problem is drinking so dehydrated and week I'm sick of the drinks but I'm also never thirsty it seems. I have to remind myself to drink. Thanks for reading this and thanks for all u people that post it helps me a lot.

Well I'm. 8 weeks out now and I weigh 200lbs with a loss of 31 lbs.. this week I did not loose any weight so I'm a little nervous. I'm very happy about my loss so far and hope I have a loss next week. I am still eating around 3oz a meal sometimes I'm hungry . I still don't drink enough and have to remember my vitamins.
