Im 5 weeks out and I had my second follow up today and I've been cleared to resume normal activities and to be able to branch off and try different foods in moderation that is. I've only lost 1 pound in the last 2 weeks but I've dropped inches - even my surgeon noticed that :)! I'm so excited and glad that I have the surgery. xoxoxo sleeve family

My highest weight was 426 in January 2012 when I started considering the surgery - in January 22, 2013 I was 399, day of surgery 1/28/13 I was 387 and today I'm 369. So in all I've lost almost 60 but my clothes are fitting differently my moms says I'm losing inches faster than pounds which is fine with me because I know the pounds will come off.

Everything will be fine! Just remember a few things

1) results may vary: not everyone loses at the same pace but we all lose

2) listen to your body: I've only dumped once since surgery and I knew when I was eating that I was eating too much too fast but I was just to excited to be eating real food

3) get grounded with good support: you need people in your corner because I probably could've gone thru this by myself but who would want to. We may not be blood related but we are related thru experience

4) trust and believe in yourself: you can do anything you put your mind to but you just have to believe it

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
