Im curious about my own progress, but also wanted to give others a place to "brag" about their progress. We all lose at our own pace but to know that you're in a range doing well is another level of motivation I could use right now. I've stalled more often then not it seems like.

So I will go first: May 22 surgery; down 28 lbs and 2 of 3 blood pressure meds!!

Ok. Now I'm in a slump. Ive gained 3 pounds. I know I have not eaten 10000 calories. So it has to be water. So why am I panicked? Chill out!

I'm a water retainer. It's the worst. Friday at work I was wearing shorts and I looked down at my ankles and it was swollen city down there (I have always had freakishly dainty, thin ankles). So I totally feel your pain. Just drink more water!.

I sit in a sauna don't know if it will help but I been sitting in one on and my life . Just started back up . Sweating it out might do the trick

Surgery date was May 22nd and had my 2nd post op visit today... Down 37.5lbs (spent 2 1/2 weeks in a stall only losing 3lbs). Out of plus size clothes and back in a comfortable 16. So awesome to think I can shop right off the rack at any normal store. Congrats to you all!!! Great work!!!

Surgery date was 5/6, down 38lbs from a highest of 292. Hit a major stall but that didn't stop me and scale has started moving again. Congrats to ALL! Your stats are FAB.

I was sleeved on May 14/14. My weight the day of surgery was 230 and today I am 207. Slow but steady wins the race is what I keep telling myself. Huge difference in the fit of my clothes and coworkers are really noticing the changes even on the weeks where I stalled! Looking forward toonederland - so close I can taste it!

Surgery date 5/21/14 down 18lbs in almost 6 weeks, scales are moving so slow

Slow is better than not moving down at all. Or going up. I think I must have gained and lost the same 20 lbs over and over again before I had my sleeve. Stay positive!

I was a band to sleeve revision on 5/23. I am one ounce away from having lost 30 pounds. To some, this may seem slow, but according to several different scales I've seen, based on my SW of 225, it is quite good. I am now 196. The BMI charts say I have another 63 lbs to lose, but I may be happy somewhere around 145. We'll see... I've got a ways to go but taking it one day at a time.

Sleeved May 2nd. SW 215 CW 180. I love living life. Two BP meds gone. So much more energy. I wouldn't trade this feeling for anything.

Me either. I remember how nervous I was before surgery and if I could go back in time, I'd tell my pre-surgical self how great it is to wear smaller sized clothes, look and feel better. How unimportant is food now.

I was sleeved May 6, 2014. My starting weight was 221, this morning I weighed 179 .

I eat every 3-4 hours, Protein first then veggies and fruit. I haven't really felt hunger- just heartburn if I exceed 4 hours between meals during the day. I walk 3-4 miles, 4-5 days/week. I feel wonderful, I'm off my 2 BP meds for good!

I was wearing a size 16 pants pre-op, now I'm wearing size 12! I can't wait to hit my goal of 140#.

Hi all,

Sleeved in Australia on May 14.

Starting weight 139.5 kg (307 lbs) before the shakes, weight as of today 117.2 (258 lbs) so a loss of 22 kg or 49 lbs.

Happy with how I am going, lost a lot around the waist and bum, not a huge amount off the neck.

Good luck to everyone

I would love to lose more around my waist and bum. My ass is holding on for dear life. LOL! I seem to lose from the top down. Sorry boobs, apparently you got voted off the island.

Congrats on your losses so far!
