How are the march 2013 sleevers doing?

Sleeved March 6th, and i just stepped on the scale!!!!!!!!! 50lbs God willing GONE FOREVER!!!!!!! it's been a very rough 2 months for me and its still very tough with having no energy and trying to keep up with my 20 month old but the weight is falling off and I'm elated! Although I feel like my body isn't really showing it since I'm a very thick curvy woman but hey nonetheless I'm losing it.

How are all the March sleevers doing??

I was sleeved on March 7th and have lost 40 pounds so far. No one had noticed yet, or at least they hadn't said anything to me until yesterday. I decided to try on an old dress that I wore 8 years ago when I was a whole lot thinner. It fit so I wore it to church. You should have seen people's eye bug out when they saw me. Made my whole day!

I was sleeved 3/26. Down 31 lbs since surgery, which isn't quite where I'd like to be but it's definitely better than I would have done without it!

So I was technically sleeved 2/28 which is one day off from march so I like to consider myself a marcher lol anywho my starting weight was 347 and I'm down 55 lbs today which is my 10 week mark it been a struggle I'm not the best sleever I loose track of water and protein and the honest truth is me and excessive have had a life long fued but trying and it's working but I was in a stall for about 2 weeks which is super depressing but out of nowhere dropped 7 lbs this body of mine is so confused

Sleeved 3/29 - 30 pounds down, 6 weeks out. SW 287. These first few weeks were rough... still having trouble judging how much to eat and overeat at times which makes me feel sick. Felt like I had more restriction in the beginning than now, but I think its just my body not providing me the clues that it will in the future.

Hi Everyone, I was sleeved 03/19 & it was the best thing I ever did for my self. Start weight was 267, now I am at 227, so thats 40 lbs so far. I feel great, I joined the walking club at my job, go to the gym on a regular, I was finally able to pull out my lawn mower & do my own grass without feeling tired, ok well a little tired. I am totally looking forward to getting to my goal weight, this has definately been a struggle but it is well worth it.

I agree, definitely a struggle...I feel tired sometimes but then I talk to myself & say, "Come on girl. You got this. Do it. Push it. You won't give up. Make it happen". Then I pray & say, "God, I need you to guide me & show me just what to do to make this happen....to get to my goal. God, please don't leave me. I can't do this without you. Thank you". So, my surg was March, 6, 2013 & I started at 303. My ticker says 257, but I did what I said I wouldn't & pulled out my scale this morn & 260! Well, I can only assume Fluid retention or muscle gain cause I lift faithfully every week. I'm encouraged, because I believe that the big "Whoosh" will come one day soon. Waiting....

Sleeved 3/4. Down 56 pounds total. I feel amazing. Still a learning curve though. Work has been hard since I don't usually get adequate time to sit and eat (if ever). I work outside in Las Vegas so Water is a must!! Most days I range from 6-10 classes, but I need to keep upping that!!

Congrats to everyone on the losses!!

The last 2 months haven't been easy but I'm still happy with my decision. 39 lbs down and 1.6 lbs to onderland! I was sleeved 3/20.

I was sleeved on 3/20 and am down 40 pounds. Surgery weight was 215 and today I'm at 175. I have been having some complications for the last 3 weeks so I have to focus on the weight going down or I'd never make it through!

I was sleeved March 4th and I am down 50 pounds. I'm 6 feet tall so with my height lots of people have noticed. It's still not where I want to be but it's a start. I still continue to look in the mirror and see this really fat girl even though I've dropped 3 pants sizes. It's a mental thing that will definitely take some work but I am getting there. Congratulations to everyone with your successful loss. Keep up the great work! :)

Sleeved 3/18. Down 39lbs since then. Started at 228. Doing ok with protein and water but need to start working out more.

I was sleeved 3/1, and am down 53 lbs. Started at 332 and currently 279. Life is good! :)

Surgery date 3-8. Down 34 lbs.

Down 55 lbs...gained 1 pound on 2 different occasions only to relose it along with a few more lbs the following week - not sure why the two gains. I go to WW weekly for the support & accountability of the scale, even though I don't do the points now. I am able to tell a difference in my clothes & others are starting to notice the weight loss.

I am still dehydrated - just can't drink alot, still uncomfortable.

I still regret it. Weight loss is great, but I would not do it again.

I am glad most March Sleevers are doing marvelous! Let's check in another couple of months??? Wish everybody the best! Good luck! Take care!
