Re: 3 yrs post op
I'm 4 and a half months out and have dropped over 80lbs so far, still not sure where my eventual weight will (or should) be. I wish I had done this 10 years ago. I would be interested to know your experiences after you hit your goal weight. Is it difficult to maintain your weight? How is it living long term with your sleeve?
Congrats on all of your success and for still making yourself available to helping us newer to the process.
Total inches lost to date 38.6 inches 98.0 cm
Highest weight 325
1st Goal - below 300 (12/12/30) 9 days after surgery'
2nd Goal - 265 weight I met my wife (13/2/23)
3rd Goal - 250 lowest weight in my 30's (15/4/2013)
4th Goal - 215 lowest weight as an adult ()
5th Goal - below 200 ()
