I was sleeved in June of 2012, and I can tell you that now I cannot tell I ever had the sleeve. I have no restriction what-so-ever anymore. The lowest weight I ever got down to was 235, and here I...

I could eat 3 crackers with peanut butter at 2 months out and not be close to stuffed.

My original surgeon isn't here anymore.. He moved away a few short months after my surgery.

How was it in Mexico?

Well now I'm 2.5 years out, and I can't even tell I've had the sleeve... Give me a 16oz steak, and I can eat every bit of it.... I'm back to the way I was before I had my sleeve. If I'm served a 3...

Yes, but I was self pay the first time, and it cost me $13,000. I've talked to another doctor and they want to scope me first ($3000) and then the sleeve from this other doctor is $11,500... I just...

I had my surgery 6/5/12 and I can't tell that I ever had it. I eat more than my wife, and have actually put 40lbs back on. I'm not saying mine stretched, I just honestly think I used a worthless...

I find that these are the times that I come back to the site. The times when I am having trouble. This is the 2nd time I have had trouble. The first time was right at the one year mark. I can...

I am considering having my sleeve revised to a bypass. In the first 6 months I was super excited to be sleeved. Now I feel no restriction, I'm hungry all the time, and I'm gaining weight.

I am in the same boat.. I have had my sleeve for a little over two years, and I have regained almost 40 lbs from my lowest. I went from 342 to 235 and now I'm at 272. This is the most discouraging...

I've been pretty hungry lately. I've actually gained a few lbs in the past few weeks. I need to get my ass back in gear. I am just over a year post op.

I have given up exercise. Why? Because walking on the treadmill for an hour a day was burning a whopping 250 calories, and it was giving me the excuse of "well I walked on the treadmill today so I...

Motivation motivation motivation. I had kinda the same stall between November 1 and January 1. New years is what kicked it into gear for me. I just told myself that I dedictated myself to this...

I try to get 100 oz of fluid in per day, but I don't always get it.. I do get a lot of protein in, but that's because I'm addicted to quest bars. lol

I have all but eliminated carbs from my diet. Quest bars are also my life saver food. I will eat two, and sometimes even three quest bars during my work hours (8-5) and then we will eat a healthy...

I have no idea mine was. I've never asked before.

I HATE protein shakes too! Buy Quest Bars! They are my life saver.

"It's not you.... It's me..."

I wasn't going to tell my mom about my surgery, but a week before I did it I went ahead and told her. I thought it would be bad if I had it and then told her after....

Do they really say that eating and drinking at the same time will make us sick? I thought we couldn't eat and drink at the same time because it would flush the food through the stomach too fast, and...

I like to think it goes to Ethiopia to a little child in need.

I had a 2 month stall that started in November. I can attribute it to changing my dieting habits. The moment I went back to the way I began, the weight started falling off again.

That's Badass! :)

Yes.

IMO water consumption is more important than exercise. Numerous people lose all of their weight without exercising at all. Water improves liver function, and is one of they key components in...

I started eating what I wanted in moderation in November, and I didn't lose a pound between then and New Years. Since New years I have gone back to dieting, taking my vitamins, watching my carb...

Congrats! I just got out of the 260's, so I've got some catching up to do! lol
