Looking for Sleevers more than a year out

Hi. I had my surgery in December of 2013. I was wondering how many of us "senior" sleevers are on here? Thanks!

congrats on your success

I am 27 months (2 years & 3 months) out. I was sleeved in April 2015 and have been maintaining my goal weight since September 2016.

So far I've been pleased with my sleeve. :)

Congrats to all. This is exactly what I wanted to hear. Pleased with your Sleeve. I was just sleeve on July 26th and hoping that I feel the same way as time progresses.

This is awesome!! You all are inspiration for me! I need to lose more weight! I have been staying around the same weight for about 2 1/2 years now, like proudgrammy said I do fluctuate about 5 up and 5 down. I did cave in and get a prescription for Contrave a couple of days ago? I pray it helps me! I am new to this site and I am loving it!

07/08/2011. Just turned 6 years. Maintaining at goal weight.

Loving it.

@PdxMan

So question for all you veterans, I'm 9 months out from surgery, at goal weight, feel amazing but I'm noticing some old habits starting to creep back up. In particular I'm having a lot of head hunger, cravings and urges to snack. How do you stop yourself from doing that! I need tips and tricks to stay on track!


I'm not as far out as many of your but I am 14 months out! I am so thankful for this sleeve!
