Weird! I guess it's just me, lol. I will continue to highlight your posts to read em, hehe.

I can't see them either! I have a laptop that is less than a year old set on the normal color settings.

Hi guys! So excited to be apart of the February Sleevers 2013!! I started at 258.8 2/17 weighed in surgery morning 2/25/13 at 248.2, and today I'm 239. I had a great hospital stay no complications. Great nurses :) I have pain in my right side like a stich when you work out too hard or walk too long. I get full super fast and am having a terrible time getting in the Protein and liquid requirements. But, I'm hopeful each day will get a little easier. And I'm wiped out. You guys give me lots of motivation though and I'm really glad for that!

Just ate a few bites of ricotta bake' date=' recipe I found on here and I feel very sick to my stomach, anything I can do to help my self from throwing up?!

I'm still sore I can't imagine the pain of committing :([/quote']

Make sure you thin it out, I didn't realize that was required in the beginning even if the food as soft and had unnecessary pain

I was sleeved on the 19th and my scale has also not moved in 7 days. From what I have been reading on here, it seems to happen to alot of people. Some have said it lasts up to 3 weeks. Try not to let it upset you. I am trying not to weigh myself just so I dont get frustrated. The pounds are bound to start falling off eventually.:-)

Help ㅠㅠ

I haven't lost anything in the last 3 days!!

I'm only 1 week out too!

I lost 8lbs this week and I know that's great but I'm wondering why I'm not losing now.

Also! I wonder about what each pain means. I can't tell if the pain means I'm full or if it means that my stomach doesn't like it.

Any thoughts?

edit: guess i should mention I'm low BMI and my doctor put me on soft foods/mushy foods after 3 days. i waited at least 5. started eating mushy foods and stopped losing. could that be the problem?? and no bm yet...

I think that is a wonderful outlook!!! We have the rest of our lives to work at this. Being obsessed with the numbers scale is an hold habit of mine that I swore I would not carry over after my surgery. As long as I'm doing what I'm suppose to, and I am feeling the benefits of that... Well, then I am succeeding. No number is going to tell me any different! ;)

It sounds like you will not have a lot of loose skin either. That's a good thing!!

I hope not but I'm sure there will be some? Todays weigh in day...4# down for a total of 28# and 12# in 3 weeks. Not bad...I haven't seen 291 in 10 yrs!!! (:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
