I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved, any other March Sleevers in the building?

Can someone please explain to me in simple terms what slider effect is? And does everyone go thru a stall ?

Hey I found this article on slider foods and it helped me understand it better.

And as far as stalls, I think eventually everyone goes through one. I think the biggest thing is to try not to get too frustrated. The most common stall is the 3 week stall. I think it's because many people are transitioning to mushy or purée foods and the body needs to adjust(that's just my logic don't quote me on it).

Just wanted to share my progress with you guys. Im a month post op today. I started at 266 pre op' date=' by surgery day i was 248 and today im 215 lbs. i cant believe it 33 lbs down! From a size 18 stretch jeans to a super loose 16. Tomorrow i start to do aerobics. Lets go guys we can do this!

Had my surgery done on the 20th. All went well. The problem is I feel completely run down. I have no energy to do anything, my wife is 6 months out and feels perfect. She says it will come back, but man it is tough.

I was sleeved on March 18, 2013. The day before my birthday!

Thank you willows for explanation . And thanks joe for article

No worries just think of combinations of things you can eat. I know I too struggled like crazy with the smell of anything delicious in our house..

Just added it today, thank you.

I go thorough the same thing. Especially with Easter candy sitting right in front of my face. lol it's sooo hard. But I try to make the best choices I can. So far so good I guess!
