    Hello! Soo glad that you logged in and answered my questions! I always have doubts, but when I hear news like yours and see the results it gives me a big boost Fear and doubts fade away... May I ask, complications you had ?? Is it something you can share??After a year and a half do you still eat small portion and satisfied with that? I always wonder if it's temporary, if after a year it changes! Anyway thanks again!! Feel free to keep in touch....You're beautiful!!

    Hi! Must say first that you look beautiful! Amazing results... When I saw you you had lap band prior to the sleeve made me want to know more about your storie why you had the switch done? How did it go? Comparisons in between the two surgery,ect...Just want to know what to expect... I'm in the same boat as you had lap band removal in juin and waiting for December for the sleeve! Anxious and scared that it won't make much difference in weight loss and restriction! Keep in touch..

    I appreciate that, any advice or things I should take with me to get thru? Did it take a full year for you to be fablous? I got to thinking about clothes the other day, she how soon do you buy if you're going to keep losing, was thinking about going to the thrift store for cheap fits? Your thoughts

    I avoid the camera, but I did take some pics the day before surgery. They are in my old phone tho. I took pics 2 weeks after surgery and I'm going to take a pic every month so I can see the changes. And there better be changes :-)
    I would take extra skin or extra chins any day lol

    Hello! You look great! I noticed your starting weight was 10lbs below mine and your goal weight is my goal as well.
    I looked at your before and after pictures, amazing!! I was wondering how long did it take you to get to your goal and do you have any issues with skin? I have been 220lbs and down to 135lbs and had no skin issues but then I got prego and gained to my highest weight of 255.
  7. That's great that you've become a runner...and I get it with the skin for sure. I feel like my sense of smell is hyper sensitive now and even the look of puréed food gets me nauseated. I made muffin size pot pies with chicken carrots and potato...put it in the blender and couldn't even stand to look at it. I guess I can't come up with ideas that may be good puréed but don't look it...idk but it's frustrating cause being not hungry and having to eat then can't find anything satiating is the worst.
    Thanks again for your help
  8. Excellent job...I'm in Florida too west coast...any tips for exercise I'm 3 weeks post op and doing the puréed thing and having trouble with that but want to keep up with toning so not to have much loose skin long term.
    Thanks for any pointers

One year & 11 days post-op

by Tifflw86 on 04-15-2015 at 10:08 AM
Hey guys! I haven't been here in a bit, but I was waiting to post my 1 year post-op blog until I hit the 100 pounds lost mark. It took me 1 year and 11 days, but I did it. My highest weight ever was 243. Yesterday I weighed 143.7

I've changed so much in a year. I cannot even begin to cover it. I am definitely happy with the weight loss - even with the scary complications at the beginning I would do it again a million times. I was a size 22, and now I wear a 6/8. I was a size 16

Vent? Worried? Help?

by Tifflw86 on 03-05-2015 at 12:56 PM
Okay - I am hoping to hear from some of you veteran sleevers. I KNOW what the problem is here, but how do you always keep your head in the right place?

I am 3 weeks away from being 1 year out. I am 7 pounds away from my goal (143 pounds / 100 pounds lost) The last few months the weight loss has pretty much stopped, unless I am actively trying to lose. Like tracking my calories, and running regularly.

I was SO freaking proud of myself when I became a runner. I've never

Using Essential Oils for our issues Pre/Post-op

by Tifflw86 on 02-10-2015 at 08:07 AM
Hey guys! I have been a part of this forum for almost a year now. I usually come read the posts every day and I am always surprised with the amount of support I receive here. I wanted to share something with you guys because it is making such a difference in my life.

I recently got into Essential Oils. I suppose I am getting in touch with my hippie side I know a lot of us on here suffer from Constipation/diarrhea, and other tummy troubles. As well as emotional issues/addiction/sadness

10 pounds to my goal!!

by Tifflw86 on 12-16-2014 at 09:02 AM
I am 10 pounds way from my goal! I had my sleeve 4.3.14 and I am almost there! It is so unreal. I still smile when I say how much I weigh. I never thought I would be here, and definitely never thought I would be thinking about lowering my goal to lose more. My original goal was 143 - that would put me at losing 100 pounds. But I just noticed on one of my apps that I would still be considered "overweight" so I think I might go for 130 and see how that feels.

I remember when

7 month update

by Tifflw86 on 10-20-2014 at 08:36 AM
Hello everyone! It's been awhile since I did any sort of update, so here it goes! I am a little over 7 months out. I have lost 49 pounds. I weighed 159 pounds this morning. I am wearing a size 13/14 pants and a Medium shirt. I also just bought a size 10 dress which fits me!! Womens clothes are strange, haha! But I will take it!!
49 pounds isnt A LOT, considering many of you have lost double that... BUT, it is 49 pounds OFF OF ME and I am happy

Including the little bit of
