who were sleeved in november 2014?.

then Im going to start walking as an extra!!! Thank you

Hey November buddies! How are things going for you?

Things are slowing down on this end... I have had a stall for a month! I'm hoping with all the exercise and the increase in Water that it will break with more than a pound.

I'm using a drinking app to remind me to drink because I seem to forget. And it must be helping because I have almost doubled my water intake.

My Vitamins are still a real challenge. I had some tests done and I need to get on it because my Vitamin D is quite low, so I have to up it quite drastically for 3 months and I'll be tested again.

I did however have some great news. My diabetes is in remission and could quite possibly be cured! In 3 months I will be doing the glucose test and if it comes back normal then I'm CURED!!!!!

I can't wait to find out!

This really is the best thing I have done for myself. I am so happy, life is good!

It's great reading so many success stories. Congratulations! My date was November 19th also. I have done well so far- not particularly fast but steady so far. Extremely uneventful surgery and recovery for which I am very grateful!

My loss has slowed down as well, but I have lost half of my excess weight so am feeling good. the weather has finally broken, i am able to get outside and do more excercise (and yard work). I have to get back into the habit of daily, scheduled, excercise. I slacked off in March due to family schedule and lousy weather, but it needs to go back on the agenda.

My surgery was November 4th. I'm 3 pounds from goal. Started out the day of surgery at 213 and at 138 as of this morning. I eat whatever I want, be it a mini piece of candy, pasta, or baked cheetos. Never once have I exercised. I drink one Monster muscle protein energy drink every morning and eat a few bites of something for dinner. I weigh every single day, and never once have I stalled for more than a couple of days and that's only been here in the last few weeks. The weight loss part has been a breeze. The complications were hell!! Been getting a little better everyday since February.

Before 213 and Now 138

Mine was 11/4. I was 220 day of surgery and 182 today. Total of 63 lbs from start and 38 since surgery so I'm happy with that. I have been stalled for a month and have been having those same what if that's it worries. Upping my exercise, water and protein so hoping that gets the scale moving again. Looks like everyone is doing great!

Hi all! Down 100 lbs as of today (21 lbs in pre-op diet/ 79 lbs since surgery on 11/20). I love my sleeve. No issues...life is kinda normal. Hope you're all doing well!

I had my surgery November 19 2014. My starting weight was 255 today I am 198.5. Im doing every thing right , and I love working out! Can someone tell me why Im losing so slow?

You'll find a lot of the same issue on this forum. There are really many reasons such as underlying medical conditions, metabolism, exercise, age, and gender. The big thing is that you are losing and if you look back one year ago today, think about the great strides you have made! Keep up the good work!

Great job everyone. I started at 209lbs and hovering around 162lbs for 2 weeks. I feel great. Dowm from size 16 to size 10.

This waa best decision I made. My physician is very pleased with my progress. Notice hair loss the past few weeks. Not really concerned. I am craving for crunchy or salty in evenings but not hungry at all. Taking all my vitamins. Know I should be getting at least 20 oz of protein drinks into my diet. Family extremely supportive. Challenging to eat out without wasting food or making so obvious to other couples or friends why Im not eating much.

I was sleeved 11/3--lost 30 pre-surgery and 73 since. Dr is delighted that I've lost 97% of my excess weight so quickly, and so am I ????
