    Default Hello my fellow sleevesters

    Been registed on this site for a couple months..just now looking around and getting my feet wet. I'll be back with y'all after I figure out the site. I had my sleeve on Aug 22, 2012.. as of today, Oct 11, 2012.. I am down a total of 56 pounds.. 7 weeks post op. I'm pretty proud of myself. I'm over half way thru my goal of 100 pounds lost during the first year. I haven't been released to do my kickboxing or zumba so that is a bummer. I do walk about 5 miles/day using arm 2# arm weights and I just started yoga yesterday. Oh, and it helps that I can't eat more than 3 oz of food at a time and I can't tolerate sugar or red meat.. so that pretty much leaves me with nothing but pure protein to eat-- no wonder I'm down 56 pounds... GEEEEZZZZ


    I WONT TAKE NOTHING FOR MY JOURNEY NOW.

    Welcome to the forum. Look forward to hearing more about your great success. You are doing so well and making big strides. 100 LBS in a year could just be too little of a goal for you as hard as you are working. Keep up your good work and please share more of your journey with us all.

    Good golly. I had my surgery the day before you and I have only lost 18 lbs. You are way ahead of me. Sounds like you are off to a great start.
    278 was my starting weight before my Lapband in July 2008
    199 was my lowest weight with Lapband as of July 2009
    79 lbs was my total weight lost with Lapband.
    59 lbs was the amount I allowed myself to put back on in 3 years before I said "this has to stop!"
