April Sleevers! Where are you at in your Journey?

Hello!! I am looking for some fellow April Sleevers for some encouragement during this time!

Where is everyone at during their new journey?

I am getting my surgery date right after I finish my second Pysch Eval Beginning of April :)

I can not wait! I have already started replacing meals with Protein as suggested by my NUT I had a rough day yesterday after about 2 weeks or a little less of it but today I feel fantastic!!

Sleeved April 29th. Down 41 pounds since surgery so counting 51 pounds I lost before surgery, I am down 92 pounds!

Hi all, my surgery date was 4/13/2015, SW 270, CW 206.2. This is a journey as things are different in how we eat as well as what we eat. Good Luck all.

Sleeved April 29th, I am down 55 lbs. since surgery. I do not count any weight loss before my surgery because that was then.... My old life! This is my new ???? I think I'm doing pretty good. I have hit stall #3 ... Ugh! Hope you all are doing well.

I was sleeved on april 2nd. SW was 248. Now I am 213. Really dont think ive lost enough this far out but I have myself to blame for that.

I was sleeved 4/6/2015 and have lost 60.9 lbs so far! I had a few "stalls" but thankfully got past them and moved on. I feel SO much better physically. I have a lot more to go but happy with my success so far.

Down 56lbs since the day I was sleeved 4/20/15 as of last Monday.. Don't think I'm losing as fast as I should however I'm not exercising as I should either.

Sleeved 4/13/15. 268lbs at surgery and now 209 lbs. however had lost 28 lbs before surgery. Very slow process. I thought the weight would come off much faster.

Sleeved 4/27/15 weighed in at 255.7, current weight 219.2. Slow loser and happy! (I hope that means I won't need plastics ☺️)

I'm only getting in about 3oz of puréed consistency food, less if regular consistency. Therefore, I drink most of my Protein.

I think slower is better. I had the Lap Band before for almost 8 yrs. i lost 22 lbs per month, but Im now convinced that I was dehydrated. The sleeve uas been slower but I feel like it will stay off. And I am smaller now than I was at this weight previously. And my face is much thinner than it was at this same weight and my skin is tightening up. Honestly....i havent been excersising. I will work on that!
