Well, it's been 4 months now since my sleeve. So far absolutely no bad side effects from surgery. I've gotta say I must be one of the lucky few who had absolutely no issues not even gas pains after the surgery. So far I'm down 104lbs, and still going strong. That being said I've had to work my ass off to get there 3-5 days at the gym and 2 of those days are with a personal trainer. I kind of shifted the money I saved in groceries to my training. I've dropped from a 46 inch waist, almost a 48 down to a 40 now and those are getting loose. Shirts have went from 4x to 2x. I haven't had to get to the point of weighing my food or anything I am even able to get most my protein from food and just have a protein shake after my workouts. Really I'm feeling like a million bucks now. I even do some running now, good thinks is I don't feel like I need a bra to do it now either! Lol My skin is shrinking up nicely too. I know not every one has as easy a time as me but I would definitely say this has easily been my best decision ever. For those havering a tough time, good luck with it all, just remember to keep your chin up and keep pushing and follow your diet and you will reach your goal.

Wow you're amazing. Very happy for you!!

congratulations!!! you're doing great!!! so inspiring. im getting sleeved on the 30th and im getting to the nervous stage. in a little bit of disbelief that it is all really happening! great job so far, your words are really comfortingg

Congrats!! That's so incredible! This post as motivated me so much! I had my sleeve on the 14th and aside from the gas pains I have felt phenomenal!! I told my husband I was scared they didn't do it right because I expected to feel miserable! I'm 25 lbs down now, which is amazing to see and I got cleared at my post opp yesterday, so I will be at the gym Monday -Friday! I don't have the money at the moment for a personal trainer but my sister has been a huge support! Good luck on the rest of your journey!

Thank you for GREAT words of encouragement! Keep up the good work!
