I had the sleeve surgery on 12/16/15. I'm somewhat new, but feel like I'm getting the hang of it. I really would like to be around other that know what's happening and get any tips or advice I can.

Hey ladies & gents -

I just moved to Austin last month from California ( groan....i know - another California transplant!)

I am almost a year out - on 7/22/16 will be my 1 year mark. I started at 227 pounds and am at 156 now. My goal is 140.

In CA it was much easier finding fruits and veggies on every corner since its a super organic/healthy area and here I've noticed there are LOTS of chains and fast food.

I don't eat fast food. I eat very healthy. I still am eating under 1000 calories on most days, struggle to get in my 64oz of Water, and am a big fruit and veggie eater.

I would love to meet some local friends. I am 32 years old, no kids, and work from home most days in Pflugerville, but sometimes from Downtown as well.
