I had my surgery in March of 2012. I must say its been a pretty easy ride for me. I did get sick a few times in the beginning from not chewing enough or eating something my pouch didn't like. But I wouldn't change a thing about this journey.

I still have about 10lbs to lose and they're fighting me every step of the way lol! But I'll get them off :)!

Hi Tammy.

Glad to see you on here for an update. I'm 11 months and I've lost 100 pounds. I'm struggling now to keep losing, so I'm going through a major stall. I'm still 30 to 50 pounds away from my goal.

I had my surgery March of 2011. I started at 289 and am at 162. I still see myself as heavy, and I am very very scared I am getting to relaxed and will go back to being heavy again. I am 39 yrs old and don't want to go back where I was.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
