Hello Hollieann,
I am 8 months out and at the same place you are. I really haven't lost any for 2 months. First let me say I am 56 years old and should have had this surgery 20 years or more ago!...

Hello Hollieann,
I am 8 months out and at the same place you are. I really haven't lost any for 2 months. First let me say I am 56 years old and should have had this surgery 20 years or more ago!...
Thank you Diane for posting, I needed to hear what you had to say. I am at my 6 month mark. Still 30 lbs from my goal and I do get discouraged occasionally because my body has decided this is where...
When I read your post, I had to check twice to see if I had written this in my sleep. LOL I too had my surgery on Nov. 10th, 2010. I have been at an almost plateau for a month and a half. I lost...
I was diabetic. When I went into the hospital my blood sugar was running around 230, never below 160 on meds. After getting out of surgery it was below 140 every time that I tested it and I was...
Larry, you can do it! I just turned 56 and had the surgery Nov 2010. I had lots of aches and pains too. They are all gone. Since the surgery I have lost 60 lbs, before in preparation, 20 lbs. ...
I started about a month after my surgery having a gnawing feeling after I ate too. I thought it might be a hunger feeling, but it wasn't anything like the old hunger pains I used to have. This...
Best of Luck! It will be fine. (I was nervous too!) :-)
I had the surgery Nov. 10th, 2010. Really the only problem I had at the hospital, was the meds that they gave me for pain. I felt so dopey and nauseated! The second day after the surgery, I stopped...
I was told that it would, over time stretch the sleeve after the healing process. Don't think I don't still want a Mountain Dew or Diet Sundrop. Sure do, but I have accomplished too much good to...
Since my sleeve in November, I have had no reflux. I mostly stick to protein with very little carbs. Raw carrots was a mistake for me. Yuk! I was very uncomfortable for several hours and felt the...
I had a shaved ice machine and had sugar free snow cone syrup to go with it. Absolutely yummy!
I tried raw carrots several weeks ago, and will never eat them again. Seems like they just sat there. It was very uncomfortable for several hours. I have been told to stay away from white bread,...
Hello, I am 56 and have lost 70 lbs since beginning this journey. I need to lose 55 more. I have the loose skin already, but it is pretty easy to hide with clothing. However, I don't have the high...

Tffnie, I had my sleeve on Nov 10, 2010. I hit a plateau around Christmas and have had one for the past week. I have a hard time getting the protein in. How in the world do you manage to get all...
Congrats! I had mine November 10th, 2010. Best decision I ever made, but I must tell you there is work involved with this too! Protein, protein, protein and fluids! Getting enough requires work! ...

Hi Michelle,
I had the sleeve November 10th and I have to say it's the best thing I have ever done. Your whole way of eating will change. It will be such a relief to no longer wake up in the...
My name is Denise, screen name Teedeeme. I had the sleeve on Nov. 10th, 2010 and am having great results. I think it will be fantastic to connect with others who are going thru this journey too. :p
