Hello to my fellow June/July 2012 sleevers! How is everyone doing? How are you staying successful? What support have you created for yourself? I'd love to hear how others are doing.

I am down 120 pounds. I have 77 more pounds to go to hit my goal. My weight loss has slowed down quite a bit in the last two months, but I feel great! I just joined a fitness center for the first time in my life. I also invested in some amazing work out shoes and I feel like I'm walking on clouds! (smile) I did a 5K in October. I lost my job in December which has been hard... but I didn't blow it over the holidays like I have so many years prior. I have hope and anticipate good things in the future. I am not perfect - that is for sure - but I am learning to live with small failures and big successess. I think most of all I'm learning to really, really take care of myself. I am so thankful for the sleeve!!!!

Ok - your turn!

God bless!!!!!

I am six months out and have lost 73 lbs. I have been a slow user but I have been continually losing and Im very proud at what I hv lost. I have went from a size 22-24 pants to now in a 16 that are baggy. Whoohoo. I also went from a 3x shirt to a medium shirt size and sometimes large...depends on the shirt. I feel so much better and healthier. I can get in the floor and play with my grandson now. I feel confident I will lose the rest.

Don't get discouraged if you feel you're a slow user. It will come off!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
