Hi everyone,

This is my first post on here. My sleeve was on April 10th. My sleeve was done by Dr Alvarez in Peidras Niegras, MX..

I wanted to meet people I can share this journey with My friends and family are supportive but they can't wrap there heads arounds why I chose this surgery. Every time I tell someone I had this surgery they look at me like I'm Nuts lol

I got contact dermatitis last week Went to urgent care and told the dr about my sleeve and she looked at me as if I ran over her dog lol

It's nice to have these forums and I welcome

All friends

Yes maam i was a April 10 girl as well

YAY!!! its nice to see people who had the surgery the same date as me...

How are you doing??

Im actually feeling GREAT! the only problem i have is getting the right amount of protien in.

Also.. I lost 27 pounds on the First week and lost only 4 the second week now going into the 3rd week i think im experiencing a stall... the weight just stays the same..

Is this happening to you??

I'm April 10th, I've lost a little over 30 pounds, excited for the future!

Sleeved 4/16 and down 74 pounds. Started the process May 2012 and weighed 291. Surgeon pushed Lapband and I wanted sleeve so I switched surgeons. Surgery day weight 284. Weight yesterday 210. Happy happy happy!!

Hey I was sleeved 4/15/13 and am down 43 lbs as of today. Total w/ 2 week pre op 55 lbs lost. Pretty excited. I have only told a few people that I had the surgery other than family. I didn't want to get that look either. I see my nutritionist next week. I am curious if I am eating too much/too little. I feel like the weight is coming off slow or something. I think I am getting in all the protein without having to use shakes...and nothing really upsets my stomach. I kinda expected to have a hard time with certain foods but so far everything I have tried I can eat. Wonder if that is normal...
