One week from tomorrow I will be getting my sleeve! Over this past weekend I have gotten NERVOUS and I work in healthcare and see this done all the time! Any other Nov 5 sleevers out there? Are you crazy nervous?

  • Nov. 5th here too. I'm a little nervous just because of the fear of the unknown I suppose. I mean, you can read all about it and talk to people who've had it done but you really don't know just how

  • November 5th here! Nervous yes, scared a little. Excited at times, I have never been a skinny person, I am very nervous about that. I have a 17th month old boy named Max, and some guilt is creeping in

Happy 6 month Surgiversary everyone! I'm down 90 lbs so far. Still have 28 to go. Here's to the next 6 months and making goal!

57 lbs down here about 30 to goal

Doing great trying to figure out this maintenance thing. I am struggling to stop losing weight. I am past goal down 90# since surgery, 119# since this journey began. My wife is having the surgery this Friday. Hoping everything goes as well as my surgery>

Down 72 lbs. -- hoping for at least another 30 -- the weight loss seems to have slowed up a bit.

60 down for me ...about 30ish to goal for me . I am not sure I was going for GW of 130 but now am thinking maybe 125 ? I am between 5'2-5'3 depending on the day lol

I'm sure your wife will do fine!

How does it feel to be struggling to NOT lose more weight? I honestly can't imagine. I can only remember once in my life when I was losing weight without really trying...and that was while having the flu, an appendectomy, and lung abscess all at the same time.

I do realize it can be a serious thing but gosh...it seems like it'd be so easy (for me) to simply switch to some higher calorie foods vs always thinking about bulk vs calories.

Down 82 since surgery...would like to lose 35 lbs more. Congrats everyone!

Its hard because I'm trying not to add the stuff that got me so overweight in the first place. I still don't do rice, pasta, breads. No sweets. I'll figure it out. It is very weird going to a dr or nut and they tell you to gain some weight

  • 4 weeks later...

Here is a pic of me June 2012 with my kids at my Son's graduation and another of me a couple days ago at my Godson's graduation Hope i posted this right.
