I was sleeved on May 21st. I have lost 74 lbs. I'm off all medication and feeling like my life has been given back to me.

Wow awesome

Wow, it is a lot of inspiration. Thank you for sharing and Good luck with your progress.

Looks like you are doing great! Hope that I can do as well when the time comes! I am having the surgery on November 19th. My daughter is graduating high school in May & I would love to be able to take pictures with her and not be embarrased. You really are an inspiration to all of us in pre-op land!

Best decision I ever made. I LOVE to shop now..and I LOVE the camera. Good luck to you!!!!!!

I have not lost weight for the last 2 days....and though I lost 26lbs in the 14 days post surgery, I am hoping that weight loss will pick back up...and last. I had an egg today and can't help but wonder if eating actual food is going to throw me off...although I don't really want to eat that much....the commercials on tv make me crave...and I do get actual hunger...that sometimes a sip of water gets rid of. Sometimes I think it's the gas that makes me feel hungry. So, has it been difficult for you to get that weight off? I get about 400 calories in, and most of my minimum protein in.

DVR for taping shows will help that commercial thing. I haven't watched commercials in a long time.. You seem like you are doing great!

Actually, I found that once I started eating real food, the weight loss increased a little. I would stall on weight when I wasn't getting my water and protein in. Anyways, the cravings I used to have are GONE! I was a chocolate addict. I haven't touched it in 3 months and have no urge to. I was also addicted to pop. That craving is gone as well.

This is very encouraging! I get my sleeve in 5 days. Can't wait to experience the same things. Thanks so much for sharing.

I lost 2 more pounds this morning! Sweet! That's 48 lbs down total, and 28 down since the surgery.

I would advise everyone who is getting the sleeve to expect the worst as far as pain goes.....because if you expect hell, and get something better, it will be a gift and you won't be blindsided with pain that makes you think you're dying...as was my case.

You are doing soooo awesome! I love your post op outfit - very cute =) I'm sure clothes shopping is way more fun!
