Thanks for input. Will look into it. Not sure of size. ��

No haven't even heard of that. I need to lose this weight FAST due to the fact that I have a HUGE hernia in abdomen and the way the surgeon needs to fix it he suggests losing more weight so it won't...

Fixing to have this done. I lost over 250 on the sleeve but need another 80-100 to lose and have plateaued the last 3 years. I was wondering if anyone else had this done and your success for starting...

I am so sorry you had to experience this. It is totally normal to have plateaus but it is also very normal not to lose every week. Just know that if you are working the plan it will come off and if...

I found that after I ate I was eating way faster then I should have been and didn't realize it and was so sick and had to lay down. I am wondering if unconciously you are doing the same thing and...

I started out at 442 at surgery but was 482 pre-surgery and lost 40 on pre-op diet cause I started liquid 2 months prior to get my weight down a bit. I am now at 223 in a year and 3 months. I just...

Thank you Heather! I look forward to reading more from you!! Yes my year has been a crazy one. I had complications from my WLS and almost died and took me 6 months to get back to "normal". Then I...

That is a great story. I had my surgery a year and 3 months ago and am down a total of 255lbs. My husband was against the surgery for himself but was so total supportive for me and when he saw my...

Great question. Some docs put you on a liquid diet before surgery to help with your liver etc so it isn't too fatty plus it clears out your system. My surgeon put me on a low fat high protein diet...

Hi!! I was 442 at time of surgery but had lost 40lbs more of that before considering surgery so started out at 482. So I can relate a little to worrying about a doc for your size when having surgery....

Jerseylocks,
I am rooting for you to be able to look in the mirror and finally see a lighter you when that happens!! It is an amazing feeling. Though I will be honest with you..for 150-200 lbs of...

I can relate to what you are saying here. I came from a very heavy weight and have had to learn to like myself in a different way than before. I related to food differently too before WLS than I do...

Well first of all "Bravo" for you being ready to support him!! My DH and I both have had the sleeve done. He just had his 3 weeks ago and I had mine a year ago on Friday Dec. 10th. Be sensitive to...

Have you tried doing your measurements? I find when I don't see the scale moving I see it in inches!! Don't worry though. Sometimes just making sure you are adding more protein and cutting down on...

Added my pin. Didn't know this was available so hadn't done it. Hope everyone reads their email and add their pin!! Good you emailed this out. That is the only way I know what is new or available...

Well my surgeon hit an artery and didn't know it so I bled internally for awhile before they realized it and ended up in ICU for 5 days and the hospital room for 2 more additional days after that...

Hi my name is Whitney. I am 8 months out from being sleeved. I have lost 136 lbs since surgery and since June of 2009 a total of 175lbs so it has been a journey for sure. I had major complications...
