Hello. I am having my sleeve on July 14th, or so it is scheduled. Hope to have some buddies to go through it with. Any July Sleevers out there?

I've lost 112 pounds and have 60 more to go. I feel great, I look great but it's much harder now than in the beginning. I'm so thankful to have my sleeve but I have to eat low carb if I want to continue losing. I hope you are all happy and doing well. [emoji8]

Don't forget to update your weight on the site.

Yes the weight loss is slower now, but going down slow is better than gaining

I have found that I need to eat more calories to lose weight. If I eat under 1400 I don't lose anything.

I'm doing well but am frustrated by the last few months of loss. I keep losing but so, so slowly now. I started at 265 and am at 190, so a loss of 75 pounds. I'd really like to lose another 30. I had a long stall a few months back and started tracking again. I'd gotten sloppy I think. Now, I'm trying to up my Protein to speed up the loss. But I feel great! I've started running after a long time away and it feels amazing.

Hey everyone my weight loss has really slowed down I have lost a total of 80 lbs I feel great I'm off all my diabetes and blood pressure meds I'm trying to put a picture on here lol.

Happy Anniversary Month Everyone!!!! I am doing great! The weight loss has slowed down considerably, but I am down to 160lbs which is only 5lbs from goal. Hope to be there by my 1yrear follow-up appointment scheduled for next month. I will say I'm not fond of all the loose skin especially on my arms, but it's better than the extra 130lbs I was carrying.Lol!! Still trying to the recommended diet focusing on Protein 1st, and the portions are really smalI, I'm surprised sometimes at how soon I'm full. I do allow myself to have treats from time to time without overdoing it.

It's great to hear from everyone and happy for everyone's hard work and success!

Yay July 2015 Sleevers!!!!! I'll hit my year on the 21st, hoping to hit 100 lbs by that date--I'm 5 lbs shy--but still gradually losing about 1 lb a month after month 8, I slowed waaayyyy down. Seems like I'm stuck, but the inches show the truth!! Still the best decision--no regrets!!! Congrats to everyone!!!!

I hit my year July 29 and am ecstatic with my results. I'm down almost 150 lbs (a few under goal) and feel better than I have in a very long time. I am now managing to pretty much eat whatever I like, and am still (luckily) making good choices. My real regret is that I haven't gotten back into exercising. I started off strong but slowed down after a few months and just haven't gotten back on track. My goal this year s to focus on exercise and diet to maintain the weight loss and the new found health. Best of luck to everyone and happy one year surgiversary!

I was going to wait until next month when we are 18 months post-op but I thought it might be good to do a check in before the end of the year and also because this is our first holiday season fully healed and I know there is a lot of food temptation at this time of year.

How is everyone doing?

I have exceeded my own personal expectations, and it seems like I am actually going to make my goal well before 2 years, which I am going to revise pretty soon for a stretch goal of 165 I think.

After going so long not eating lots of stuff, I find it very easy to pass things up. Holiday candy doesn't appeal to me. Alcohol doesn't interest me. Even when I get a drink I usually only have one sip and I am bored.

Hello! I'm doing good lost about 100 lbs - but then found out I was pregnant :0!!! Surprise. I gained 15 In 6 mo of pregnancy and am hoping when this is all over I continue to lose hope everyone else is doing well!!
