I am not quite 2 months out yet but have lost 42lbs. I am 3oz shy of onederland I never thought I would be there again. The sleeve is the best thing I have ever done for me.

Wow!!!! That is amazing! Congrats it must feel amazing.

It is awesome! I am 7 weeks today and 198! I still cannot believe that I will never see a 2 at the beginning of my weight again. I feel great I can run with my kids without killing myself.

That is wonderful! Share some tips!

Protein, protein, protein and water! I walk/jog 5 days a week and I play with my kids again.

I started at 347, lost 34 pre-op (2 months self motivated diet waiting for surgery...it's so much easier when you know there's a light at the end of the tunnel). In the 2 months post op I lost 32 more. I am on the slower side for my size but like previous poster said, I would've lost faster had it not been for pre-op weight loss. I'm happy with it though, it helped prep my mind and body tremendously. I'm 2-1/2 months out now and my total loss just hit 70 lbs. just to add, I didn't lose much the first month. When I could finally hit 700-800 calories that's when my body complied and lost faster. I've lost 5-6 lbs a week a few times and 1/2 lb once in month one.

70lbs is great!!!! You must feel like a different person already!!

I'm a week and two days out from my sleeve and you ladies and results are amazing. I have pre op on Monday and surgery on the 9th. Anything you can tell me you wished you knew prior to surgery that you experienced! I'm excited to be healthy.. I need to loose about 120 lbs.

I will be two months post-op on June 9 and lost 10 lbs pre-op and 37 total. I oftentimes feel like it should be more but the average is not bad.

That's great! Keep up the good work.

I lost 20 lbs before starting the pre-op diet (over a few months), 13 on the pre-op diet (10 days) and at 8 weeks yesterday, lost 26. The post-op is slow and steady and all together 56 pounds that is gone. So, I'm happy.

So I'm about 5 weeks out and have lost approx 30 pounds. I'm happy with the progress. I actually have gone up and down a bit but I'm not worried. I'm doing everything they have told me to do. I know the weight will just keep coming off. I hurt my foot so I can't do the long walks I was doing. My clothes are so loose it's awesome! I'm just enjoying my lifestyle and loving not being hungry.
