Hey guys, I had surgery on July 3rd and I've lost 32 pounds but the scales isn't really moving the way I think it should be... How are we doing!!

I was sleeved 7/22/13... Officially down 51lbs from surgery date .. I too am having trouble motivating to get to the gym ( hate it)! But I need to tone so I don't have floppy skin so far I'm ok . I pretty much eat what I want - cant eat much and I try to get in Protein or meat first. Thank God I enjoy soups because often they are my go to lunch - I can usually get soup down easier and feel satisfied. Everyone in my family says I still try to eat too fast which in turn makes me miserable after just a few bites.. I try to slow down but my mind is telling me this is delicious - your hungry -eat ?! Loving the sleeve - feel so much better and able to move around' date=' get dressed, not feel so tired ))[/quote']

Too fast! Me too! I just wanna get it out of the way most of the time. I can't slow down!

Neither did I.

Oh no! Are we going to turn this thread into a confessions about Halloween candy consumption? If so.....yes, I did eat some candy...2 small tootsie rolls, 3 tiny butterfingers. They were yummy. By the way, my knees hurt like crazy today. Others have claimed that eating sugar can make them feel really bad. I have to admit that there is no other reason for my knees to hurt today except my dietary indiscretion!

Not confessions, I actually had no desire for it. S amazing I had to post. Last time I didn't have any Halloween candy I was probably an infant. (Usually its been a ton)

Sleeved oct 23. Down 10.

Sleeved July 30. I would categorize myself as a slightly slow loser, as compared to others I've seen. But happy about my losses? YOU BET!

I'm attaching my stats below for anyone that's interested.

What app do you use for your stats?

It's just an Excel spreadsheet I created. I enter my weight daily and the spreadsheet does all the rest.

That's really cool. Wish I had something like that.

This is what I do. Not very fancy, but I like to keep track to see where I have come from.
