So 2 days tracking, and 2 days no alcohol and already down 2.4 lbs!! Well on my way to my goal weight again!! Thanks for the input Ya'll!!

Thanks for all of your responses! I feel like I just had to admit my problem to another human being, to make it public so that I could address the issue seriously. I was never much into alcohol so...

Hello! Have been doing well with my sleeve - surgery was in Mexico in Oct 2017. I lost 90 lbs to goal (180 lbs) in 7 months. I was never much of a drinker, just maybe once per month. I maintained...

I have been maintaining for a little over 2 years, my surgery was Oct 2017, so I guess 2.4 years ago, and it took me 7 months to get to goal. For the longest time, my weight was maintained at 180...

I used to take tums for dessert, a couple tums, and my heartburn would go away. Now I take less and less tums. I still take them when I have a different food or so; but a lot less, I used to take 2...

HI there. It took me three years and 2 cancellations to decide on surgery (i went the 3rd time...I'm a Mexico patient). And so I know it can be very difficult. All of those foods I ate before...

Hi there, thanks for all the replies. Seems really silly to pose this question, but wanted others opinions from those that go through the sleeve changes, just like me. Yes, I am female, and yes, I'm...

Hi there, I don't know what to make of this. I have gained 3 inches since the last time I measured, and the last time I measured was 7 months after my surgery when I hit my goal weight. I have...

I've been in maintenance for 11 months now, and have maintained the same basic diet, exercise routine in those 11 months, have maintained at 180 lbs (a 90 lb loss total). Recently for the last...

Hi,
Dr Hidalgo in Puerto Vallarta is the best in Mexico. You won't hear one negative review about him. The price is $4200 US + Hotel + transportation (it's all arranged for you when you are there) -...

Hi All! I've done well, and have been at goal for a few months now. I had originally set my goal to 170 lbs but when I got to 180 I was content there, so I reset my goal to 180. I hover at 178 or...

I was taking 1000 mg B12 orally (tablets) every day. And when I was tested for B12 my B12 levels were 37 (really low!). The doctor told me that with some bariatric patients B12 doesn't absorb in...

One of the biggest changes for me was realizing my love affair with food had to stop, or drastically change. I could no longer indulge in all the foods I used to indulge in. It's an adjustment, but ...

When it comes to going back to the basics, start logging your food again. I used my fitness pal, and set it to lose 2 lbs a week, and I stop when I get to 1200 calories in a day. I just stop. I...

Well I need to get more exercise. Currently only active once per week. I logged my food today, and I'm more than 1200 calories. I need to re-assess. And I feel like I need to keep reaching for my...

Good Day! I've been stalled at 190 lbs now for 12 days. I am on the fence. My goal was to lose 100 lbs, however currently I'm a size 12 and I like the size I'm at right now. So I'm even on the fence...

Congrats!! Those feelings are completely normal. But when you actually have the surgery, you'll be thinking what was I nervous about? It is life changing for sure, but it's life changing for the...

Yes, I had to fly home. I flew home 4 days after the surgery. I was advised to walk every hour to avoid blood clots. For that reason I requested an aisle seat. Also, when they offer pre-boarding...

Thanks all for the responses! it sure does help!!

Kind Regards

I was told to get up and walk on my 5 hour flight, every hour to avoid blood clots. So I did manage to do that. When the pre-op diet started...that's when I knew things were gonna get real. But 5+...

HI there, my sleeve surgery was 5+ months ago, I had been religiously taking 1000 mg of B12 every day, along with multivitamin 2X day, Iron, Vitamin D and Calcium. I found out this week that I have...

Hi All, I'm 9 days or so shy of 5 months post op and I just hit onederland today! I am now 70 lbs down! It feels great to hit onenderland. I wondered if I would ever get here, but it took patience,...

Thanks Alynn! Your starting weight and goal weight are very similar to mine! How tall are you? I'm just asking since our goal weights are the same. I'm 6 feet :-)

On Jan 9th I posted that I had stalled for two weeks, and was concerned I wouldn't lose any more weight! Well it would seem my stall broke soon after that, and since then....so in 19 days I've lost...

Hi there! Don't get too discouraged or beat yourself up too badly, there's still time to turn the ship around! It's tough when you don't have the time to yourself. I just wanted to say that for me...
