I hope nobody minds me sharing, I'm still very early in my journey - my first appointment was two months and two days ago, my surgery was five days ago and since the start of this process as of today I am 50lbs down, 10lbs since surgery. I still have a long way to go but felt I wanted to share this small victory as I have found reading all of your posts inspiring and hope this may help another embarking on this brave journey.

Of course we don't mind you sharing! Welcome and congrats on your recent surgery!

Congratulations for starting the journey toward improving your health. I think it's great that you're looking for support early on. Continue to reach out and know that others have been where you are right now.I have been sleeved for 14 months! It's not been easy but I would never change a thing!

Thanks I've been pretty lucky compared to others who have had long waits, nausea, pain and other complications. I'm here for the long haul, tomorrow's adventure is the first meeting at a new gym with the intention of joining - only slightly daunting but I'll be brave

Hi Everybody...I was sleeved on October 5th I was down 15 pounds at my nutrition visit last week... My question is should I buy a scale or just get weighed at the Drs???

Congrats

50 pounds lost is no small victory!

That's awesome.

I love your positive attitude.
