It's sad and unfortunate but you have to do what's best for you. Contrary to what people think, working out and eating right isn't the easy way out. The sleeve forces you to do what you couldn't do...

Good luck to all you guys. Suzanne you'll blink your eyes and you'll be sleeved! Keep us posted!

If I feel a little hungry between meals I grab a couple almonds and it helps. Best of luck to you.

I too have been in a 3 week stall but I am confident it won't last forever. Hope by wednesday I'll b in onederland. Keep me posted sleeve buddy.

I too was in a stall for a couple of weeks and this morning I was down a few pounds so I'm excited about what's to come. I as well didn't change anything and stuck to what I know works. Good luck and...

That is not only a tremendous accomplishment but also very encouraging for me. Good luck and I'm sure you will reach your goal as predicted.

Girl you are rocking that sleeve. Congratulations on your weight loss and continued success!

You guys can definitely do this. I had my surgery 3 weeks ago and have never felt better. Including 1 week pre-op diet, I am down 25lbs and counting. I'm on a little stall right now, but I know I...

But of course you will and I will be right behind you. So far I've lost 25lbs and I've been on a stall for about 1 1/2 weeks, but I still excercise daily and stick to what I know will be best for me...

Good luck on your journey. Although the gas is annoying it is far better out than in.

Good luck and well wishes to you on your new journey.

I too am losing slowly and started to get a little discouraged but someone made me realize that this is an individual journey. Everyone's body type is different and we will not all lose the same. I...

Thanks guys! I'm sure I have what I need, or at least I hope. I'm just so darn nervous. This will be my first flight EVER and i'm terrified.

I will be leaving for TJ in 2 days and need to know what I will need for the trip. Should I take vitamins and meds? Will I need anything for my hospital stay. I am so nervous right now. I'm trying to...

I am nervous, scared, anxious among other feelings as well, but I agree with what has already been said. This has been a battle for years and I know this will definitely change my life. With that...

I also was told I could still take my vitamins and insulin although I haven't been because this pre-op diet has regulated my sugar readings. I would also check just to be sure. Good luck!

Welcome to the group! Sorry to hear about all of your losses and your greatest lost, WLS, I'm sure you will enjoy. Good luck on your life long journey and keep me posted on your progress.

This site has great support and a lot of great people with good insight. Everyone is eager to help and give advice and share their stories. I too have my surgery next month on the 24th and can't wait...

Thanks Dennis for the info. I will definitely take your advice into practice. You being an RN in this field gives me great insight. I'm online now looking for the binders. Again, thanks.

I am one who's always worn girdles or wraps to try and control the buldge, so I was wondering if anyone knows if they can can or should be worn after surgery and if so how long after?

I have always worn girdles and wraps to try and hold up and disquise some of this plumpness and I was wondering how long after the procedure can you wear them again? I also have a wrap for...

My first issue was getting my husband to agree with me going out of the country and I accomplished that mission! Then I was delayed in getting my passport and now I have applied for that and pray it...

I am excited about mines as well and hope I have the same energy you have after mines is done. Good luck!

I have been researching trying to find a surgeon because I will have the surgery one way or another, but it is very costly and my husband is very uncomfortable with me going to Mexico. The two...
