I had sleeve surgery on 03/24/16 and I feel great! HW 253. SW 236. CW 208. I was walking most days until we started flooding here in Houston, and I have not gotten back to working out.

I haven't had any problems from day one. I even questioned if the surgeon really did anything because I didn't have any nausea or problems meeting my intake goals.

I get between 1,000 and 1,200 calories a day, high protein low carb.

Surgery 30 March. SW 123kg CW 104kg... I feel pretty good, i follow a high Protein diet, try and stay around 1000 to 1200 cals and at least 2 litres of Water.

I have not been exercising, aside from running after my twin toddlers - and this is something that i want to focus on seriously once we move into our new house by the end of July.

My hair has been breaking n has become super fragile.. But it hasn't bothered me too much since i keep it in braids most of the time.

How has everybody else's progress been?

I had my surgery on 3/22/16 and feel GREAT. My HW: 318, SW:280 and CW: 214.6. I would say this has been the best decision of my life.

I did suffer one complication which is constipation but thats it. I've been working with my surgeon and her team to increase my Fiber.

As far as exercise I did go to the gym before surgery and would do the treadmill and the elliptical. I have been back to the gym and find that I have to run now in order for my body to feel like it is working out. I'm excited for future results.

Due to increased workout my surgeons wants me to try to get to 1000 calories a day. I'm currently anywhere between 650-850. If I don't hit the 1000 it's ok but I have to remember to give my body the appropriate rest before I run again. Now I can run anywhere from 3-4 times a week. I also do strength training.

I did personal training immediately at 2 months when cleared to exercise and it was difficult. However now my body has adapted and wants more.

Congrats EVERYONE!!!!!
