Welcome to the forum!! I am about to celebrate my 2 year anniversary!!! I have always struggled with my weight since I was a little girl. The surgery has given me the life I always dreamed about. ...
I had Mirena in for 4 years prior to surgery and had no issues after surgery with losing weight. I have since had a new one inserted post sleeve and had no issues.
Ann it is so funny, but when I started the journey I was on the site hourly (comparing my stats to others...) Now that is what my sister is doing. As time goes on and you become accustomed to your...
Today I got exciting news that my sister got approved for the surgery!!! I remember the day I found out (almost two years ago) and the incredible feeling that I had. I feel that same way today for...
Love my straws!!! Started 6 months out and it helps me control my sips.
I did by accident last weekend for the first time since surgery. I tried a punch and didn't realize there was soda in it until I sipped it. I had the same feeling in my tummy as you.
I remember the day I decided to have the surgery like it was yesterday. I was driving to work with tears streaming down my face telling my husband it was time to do something for myself. From that...
We have very similar stats but my surgery was a year prior. Definitely at the 6 month mark it slows down. I lost about 10 pounds per month after the 6 month point then it dropped off to 5 pounds...
I can relate to how you are feeling. Just know it really gets better!! I remember lots of tears. Now my tears are of pure joy. From size 22 to size 6, life is good. Hang in there and the...
I have Mirena and at the time of my surgery it was in for 4 years. I did have some bleeding that the doc thought was from my increased hormones. It went away. I don't feel the Mirena negatively...
You look amazing!! Congratulations!
Thanks so much for your comments! I am hopeful that this is just a phase...
Has anyone experienced tail bone pain after they have lost their weight. I have gone to an orthopedist and he told me my tail bone was normal and sent me for physical therapy. I have done 17...
Having surgery is a huge decision. My only regret is not doing it sooner. I had a wonderful full like before with a loving husband and children loving me for me. I didn't think things could get...
I can't believe today is my one year anniversary from getting sleeved. I feel absolutely amazing! When I look back at one year ago, it seems like yesterday. This year has flown by and so much has...
Suz, this is such an exciting time for you. Next year, you will be in my shoes. Take advantage of this journey and work it girl!! The first month is hard and after that is smooth sailing. If you...
Thank you Kimpossible! Never in a million years did I think I would be a size 6!!
Today I weighed myself and I hit my goal that the doctor set for me over a year ago. I am 140 pounds and I can wear a size 6 petite. I started this journey at 250 pounds at surgery and wore a size...
In a million years, I never thought I could run, let alone complete a 5K. My husband who is fit and trim has been running for years. I have always been on the sidelines cheering him on as he came...
It is amazing how I feel after 100 pounds gone. I have shared in the past my Top 10 NSV's after each milestone. Today I will share some of the changes that I have gone through in this process.

I had a small pillow that I used to press against my tummy for the ride home, and really used it to get out of bed and sitting down. I went everywhere with the pillow. Really helped. Good luck!!
I can't remember being at the weight I am now. The other night I said to my husband with a very concerned voice, "feel this".. It was my shoulder. I felt a bone protruding out. My husband looked...
I was a 42DDD and now I'm a 36DD. Yeah!!
