Where are you now?

August 16 will be my year surgery anniversary and I am down 80 pounds. I started at 263 now 183. I have hit a few stalls and I am in one now, but I have learned the Sleeve is a tool and you must do as your Dr has told you to keep in maintenance. I feel really good, blood work is normal, no more high sugar levels. Overall, no regrets in having the surgery:)

I am 104lbs down from highest weight. Which was 230ish. (16 stone 10lbs down to 9 stone 3lbs) goal is about 5lbs away and my op was December 17th 2016. Very pleased with progress - do have some skin but waiting to see if I want it fixed - though I miss having a bum and tits!

Oh thanks so much. Good luck to you as well. Maybe we can keep in touch and motivate each other. I need a weight loss buddy. My current weight is about 330. I have a lot to lose. But I'm ready to get started.



I would love to have a weight loss buddy! ! That would be so amazing to have somone to talk to that is going through the same thing. My hubby is as perfect as they come when it comes to support but can't fully understand the emotional slide we've been and will continue to be on. I'm so excited for us! We deserve this opportunity ;)

Yes we do. I messaged you on here. If you don't mind we can keep in touch. Since our surg within a day of each other.


My one year is 8/30. My surgery weight was 232 and my current weight is between 142-144. I am 5'7". I hit goal (150) in mid-May. I wear a 4/6 or small/xs/xxs depending on the cut. If I lose more, great. If not, great. I thought I was maintaining at 150, but lost a few pounds

Oops! I just saw this was for sleevers!

Well I should say I like all storys, good or bad!

I'm a 1 1/2 yrs out. Have had many difficulties and lil support from my surgeon. I have lost about 25 lbs and nothing else. I play a huge part in this I know but also thought I wouldve had more support especially since I wasnt doing so good at loosing. I felt that I had surgery and oh well on to the next. ... I need to find something to do with my time when Im not rehearsing for choir.. I'm single so support from a personal perspective is very lil and at times I wish I never had the surgery.... Well trying to get back on track and become successful instead of a failure.Im open to suggestion and I hope I'm posting this in the right place.. Verynhappy for all of you and keep the good work up!

I would love that. Sorry Im just responding but life has been lil hectic since my accident 2 mos ago. Another setback bcuz I haven't been able to exercise like my routine was before this. I did bite the bullet and went to see my surgeon and I expressed that I was unhappy. Had been almost yr since my last visit... I am alone so think that has played alot into being unsuccessfully! !!!! Reaching out to a psychologist to deal with emotional eating and dealing with past hurt/disappointment and low self-esteem . Thanks soo for the encouraging words. Please keep in touch and lets pray 4 each other!!![emoji6]
