Hey there,

I am from northern Alberta, looking for some other Alberta ladies to join.

I am still pre-op but that will change in 18 days! I am very excited but apprehensive all at the same time.

I've struggled with protein shakes as well but recently found one that actually tastes good, if you like banana ha ha it's called muscle milk and I buy them at the fast gas here! They are 25g of protein and 220 calories for 414 ml! I totally enjoy them ever morning now!

I from Fort McMurray!! I had my sleeve done May 20, so just a week post op tomorrow!

Grande prairie,Alberta

Sleeved in August 2014 it's been amazing feeling the struggle now of feeling confident and wanting to resort to some old eating habits!!

80 lbs down now, another 25 and I will be at goal.

Did you experience much loose skin?

I'm from just outside ft sask....was sleeved July 22, 2014. Down 120 pounds since my heaviest, 100 pounds since surgery. I was sleeved in Tijuana. I've got a little bit of loose skin but it's not terrible. I'm actually in the process of gaining weight now so I can go for plastics.

Hi jadyn!

I was sleeved July 25 2014 I'm down 114 lbs since surgery! I too have a bit of loose skin, mostly on my arms and stomach, but it's not that bad! With cloths on you cAnt tell! I think eventually I will have plastics but I still want to lose another 40-50 lbs and try to tighten up on my own!!

Can I ask why you have to gain weight for plastics?

You have to have a certain amount of body fat for the procedure I want (Brazilian butt lift) I don't want bum implants lol. I need to gain back a bit of chub so that they can suck it out and make me a new arse ???? gaining weight after the sleeve has proved a pretty big challenge for me....pre op I thought about food and I'd get bigger. Now I just eat and eat and eat....and nothing.

Oh interesting! Lol yeah I'd still have enough chub, but your right it would be very hard to gain any amount back now! Can I ask where you are having your plastics done?

It's very hard. Last night for dinner I ate a piece of pizza, spaghetti with butter and cheese and chocolate ice cream. And a can of pop....I was like aw yes, here comes some lbs. This morning I got up...the same. I'm on vacation tho lol so I do not eat this way all the time. Coming back to Mexico for plastics. I can't recall the place. My friend just came from there with a full mommy makeover and looks amazing.

Hi I am in northern Alberta and looking for sleevers around me to support and advice when I am stuck . I got my sleeve in December of 2014 .70 some pounds down and looking forward to losing more. Does anyone else in Alberta have advice the always cold problem?

Omg!!! I'm always cold too!! I went camping for may long and the whole weekend I had pretty much my whole bag of cloths on haha everyone else laughed at me and couldn't understand why I was so cold! I wish I knew the solution!!

I was wearing leggings and a hoodie today. In cancun. Hahaha I know the always cold feeling!!

Hi Alberta ladies! I'm in Calgary and getting sleeved in 24 days. I'm actually kind of pumped to feel cold all the time since I'm so sick of feeling hot all the time and instantly breaking a sweat at the thought of physical activity!

Also, camping on May long?? Pretty much guaranteed to freeze!!
