I know that I'm only just beginning, having had my surgery exactly 3 weeks ago(July 28), but I'm so excited I just had to share. I'm down 30# from my highest weight, just had my measurements redone by my trainer and I've lost 12 1/2" and I feel great!

So far, I'm thrilled with the changes both psychologically and physically.

I think that Sleevie and I have a bright future ahead. The information and support from this website have been invaluable- thanks to all.

Oops, some how got an emoticon instead of July 28. That was my surgery date.

Nice to know that you are happy with the gastric sleeve surgery and are enjoying the changes that you are noticing in physical as well as your psychological being.It really helps to boost ones confidence to the next level if you achieve something which you set out to achieve.

so excited I just had to share

Awsome!!!!!!! It only gets BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck!! Welcome to the "loser's bench"!! It's a great place to be!

Thanks to all of you who were kind enough to reply and/or like my post. I know that I have a long way to go, but I'm headed in the right direction and really feel as if I've got all of the tools that I need to make this happen for me. It's been wonderful reading so many success stories along with the people who were brave enough to post their complications and problems. I truly am so grateful for this forum and for contact with fellow sleevers, as well as for the care I've received from my surgeon, nutritionist and office staff.

Can't wait until its time to post some before and after pix:)
