Hello New Mexico!! How's everyone doing??

I kinda grazed and ate out alot and granted smaller portions.... But alot more than I had.... Kettle corn street movies, ghengus grill cake etc!!! But I am actually down a lb!!

To post a pic it is easier on the smart phone, I think. After you reply, look for the little 'plus sign' next to the send button. See if that works for ya. :)

Hi!!!! :)

It went realllly good! No complications! I stayed 2 days in the hospital no issues besides the nurses coming to bug me to walk! Cindy was great!! Very sweet Liz as well!

I've seen him 2 times since- I haven't been Taft impressed after-- as I realized other drs take pics and give u stricter guides like dobt go over a certain cal a day or carbs and they give guides but follow paleo- I just wish it was more definite answers - just my pref tho-

When do u have it? It has def been worth it? What's your stats? I was 319 -- In the hospital I gained what I'd lost pre surgery and it stayed that 1st week but then I lost it plus some!!

I was sleeved feb 25th so almost 4 months-- I am down to 250.4!!!! Went from tight tight tight 26 to 22 some smaller --:)

Good luck!!
