At the suggestion of a fellow sleever (thanks DeezJeans) I'm starting a post-op success story thread. This can be a 'numbers' thread...when you do your weigh in's, you can post your pounds lost here, and we can keep a running total. We can use this thread JUST for pounds lost!

Looking forward to the thousands of pounds we WILL be losing!

Here's what we would like to do. Please send me a private message with your goal pounds lost. (Meaning, if your goal is to lose 150 pounds, just jot that down in a quick private message and send that to me.)

Then we will compile all the pounds from everyone who wants to participate, and post the full amount, and then work towards those goals with weekly updates. We will be recording those pounds lost AFTER surgery!

You will still post your pounds lost on this forum here so we can Celebrate all of your victories (and I will keep track of them on my trusty spreadsheet, and then report the weekly pounds lost)

If you have any questions, please let me know!

I just wanted to tell you all how inspiring you are! I'm scheduled for the sleeve on dec 16th and seeing your progress in a year is incredible. I can't wait to see where I am in December of 2015!! Congrats to you all!!

Jaudon - best wishes to you on your upcoming surgery. I can tell you, that like many others here, I don't have one single regret, and am LOVING what this sleeve has done for me. I have had a BLAST keeping track of everyone's successes over the past 11 months, and it's been an amazing journey!

I wish you the very best...

Sorry I didn't check in yesterday. I actually had a 1.4 pound gain!! I was gone on a business trip to Chicago for the week and ate and drank way too much! Those alcoholic beverages certainly are empty calories! Back on track this week.

Hi everyone!

So glad to see all of the wonderful posts. Please remember, to post your stats in the format of:

HW (High Weight)

SW (Surgery Weight)

CW (Current Weight)

TPL (Total Pounds Lost to date)

TPG (Total Pounds to Lose Goal)

The way I track your numbers is strictly by the TPL line, so if I don't see that, then sadly I don't know where you are in your weight loss journey, and I sure want to make absolutely sure that I get everyone's successes.

Thanks also to everyone who posts 'no change this week'. That's easy to take care of on the spreadsheet, I just update the date...but it helps to know who is still participating.

Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving (early), and I'll post our weekly numbers in a little bit.

Happy Holiday's!
