You lose the most when you can get to a decent level of calories and you can move.

I have my surgery next week and am pretty much exactly where you started - same age, height and weight. How are you doing now? How has this whole process been for you? I am anxious to hear where I might be in six months!

It has been the very best decision I have ever made in my life. First weeks were hard. Trying to get used to what was real hunger or head hunger and what was gas etc. Now I am very rarely hungry and it amazes me every day how little i crave anything or how little I eat. I am down to 178 and I have been at my longest stall of 3 weeks. I'm not worried I know it's normal. I feel like a different person. I run up and downstairs like I am 18 again. I literally feel little. I'm loving my sleeve!!! Good luck. You are in for a great transition.

Thank you for getting back to me. You've had great results and I can't wait to start having them as well. I can only imagine how you feel like a new person not having to carry around the extra weight. My fiancé of course doesn't think I'm fat because he doesn't know how much I weigh, but when I said, when I weigh 90 lbs less, I am going to have a lot more energy. Then I think it really sunk into his thick skull that I truly need this surgery and that yeah I will have more energy! :) Thank you again for your reply and good luck with your continued success.

Good luck please keep us posted, I'm having my surgery on June 21st and next Wednesday I start my 7 day liquid diet on this coming up Wednesday, I'd loveto know if you have any pain. I'm getting nervous but I am going to have the surgery no matter what. I need this.
