My surgery date was March 21, 2012....I have lost a total of 160 pounds!!! I just want to let everyone know don't get discouraged...this is the best thing I ever chose to do. It's hard at first but stay committed and make this a life style change. I love my sleeve.

Thank you Chandi. You have done an amazing job. Do you have any advice for us freshly sleeved people? In particular, so many people on hear are worried about stalls or slow weight loss. I am constantly reading that people are worried they are doing something wrong and won't be able to lose their weight. I would love your input.

Wow, that's great! Congratulations on your wonderful success! So it took you about 15 months to lose that, right? That's exactly how much I had to lose, and I'm a little more than half way there. So good to see someone accomplish that goal - helps me remember it CAN, and has been done! Thanks for sharing.

It can be done. Sorry it took me so long to respond. It has been about 15 months. I went through stalls and there was some months I would only lose a couple of pounds. Don't get discouraged, it's just your body catching up with the big changes we are putting it through. I watched everything I put in my mouth...and worked out. At this point I have 9 pounds left to lose and it's the hardest 9 pounds yet. I've been trying to get it off for about 2 months now but my body has stalled. I'm doing the insanity videos and they are very useful with toning, and hopefully dropping my last 9 pounds. Thank you guys for your words of encouragement!! Just remember you can do it and you will feel great at the end! Don't give up!!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
