NSV. I was able, for the first time, to button my suit blazer! Feels good to be able to do this as I've owned this blazer for about five months and have never even come...

Weight still not moving, size 14 still does not fit (was loose on me last summer) but I will forge on...my body has to give in sooner or later.

ISopure .5 serving

Good luck! You've got this...welcome to the wonderful world of VGS.
Hi Donald! Yes indeed! My suits are fitting me much better! I'm not hung up on the scale, for me it takes quite a bit to lose even a lb even with the sleeve, it took me over a year to lose the 120...

I had my surgery in 2015, however, I'm still looking forward to things...first it was everything you mentioned, sitting in a plane seat not needing the extension was amazing! When I ran my first 5k...
When my surgeons office was talking to my insurance (which is amazing) and began the ... hold on we've not heard from your insurance company, I picked up the phone and called them myself...I was in...
This happens to me often since having this surgery, it began probably eight months out (if not sooner and I did not realize what it was). I've been diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia, which from...

Had a great weekend, no cheating, I find I do much better on weekends than during the work week, though I've not gone off plan at all since starting. Well, the scale still is not...

No exercise at all today yet...had to work through lunch so no gym...I will workout at home and post later. I hope everybody has an amazing weekend! No cheating.
It's funny, I stopped losing many moons ago and have put on 40+ lbs...I am working now to take it back off, my surgeon stated the average is eight months of loss, after that you are pretty much on...

So the scale did not move this morning, that's what I get for slacking yesterday at the gym and not running...lesson learned. I love how being in ketosis makes me feel, several...
I measure by my highest weight (which was the day of surgery). It keeps this in prospective when I feel as if I'm not losing enough...I've come a long way!
I'm pretty sure physicians do not give projections of weight loss because they don't want to set us up to fail...nor do they want us to feel bad about ourselves if we do not meet the projection. ...
I have what is referred to as reactive hypoglycemia. It is a byproduct of the gastric sleeve and actually pretty common, I've had to learn about hypoglycemia in the past year (this started about...
No support band necessary. Good luck to you, this is a huge decision, one I will never regret! I would say, go out and purchase baby food and a baby spoon, it is what I used once on pureed foods,...
My surgeon gives the sleeve 18 months at the most...beyond that we are on our own. I reached my lowest weight at about one year out, I was down 120lbs...I've regained 43 of that, but am on track...
Thank you so much Jamma, and good morning! Your loss is excellent!!!! KUTGW!

Good morning Ghost...not quite yet, it has only been a week, I got on the scale again this morning just to see if it has moved and no...no change, but one thing I know, I'm drinking...
80 lbs is the norm for the sleeve, to lose that is, after the first 80lbs it is really all on you...that being said, people have given many wonderful replies, I hope this all works out for you. I am...

Okay, I finished last week with no cheats & working out five out of seven days. I stayed on plan all weekend and tested positive for ketosis on Saturday! I jumped on the scale this...

Okay, so yesterday was a total day off, I'm not sure I needed it, but I took it and had to talk myself out of not feeling guilty :rolleyes: I did, however, stay on my low carb diet...
Impressive Bob...however, you might want to change your name...verylargeBob simply does not fit anymore! Very inspiring to know even after such a long span we can lose more weight than we originally...
