I have 2 friends who have been sleeved in the past 7 months. I was sleeved on April 29th and have lost 40 lb. One of my friends tracks calories, gets in all her protien and has lost 116 in 7 months. Her surgery weight was 398. My other friend doesn't worry about anything she just lets the restriciton do its job and never overstuffs herself. Im not sure of her surgery weight but her BMI was about the sams as mine on surger day (39), she has lost 78 lb since March 14. At a crossroads on what to do for myself because of my 40lb almost half have been lost the first 2 1/2 weeks, the rest Im eeking out at about 1lb a week?
