Thank you so much for all the kind words of support, I really appreciate it. I was just having a particularly down day yesterday, I seem to fluctuate between being really happy about my weight loss and really sad that I'm not loosing more quickly. Its so encouraging to know I'm not the only one out there that struggles with this Thanks again for all the support, its exactly what I needed.

Hi Everybody, I'm relatively new here, I was sleeved 6 weeks ago and since I've lost 27 lbs and an additional 10 before surgery! I know 37lb is a lot and something to be proud of but I find myself getting down a lot about not loosing more quickly. I have about 130 lbs to loose to make it to goal, which seems huge! I guess I get upset because I see a lot of other people that have similar goals where the weight is just flying off of them. I get jealous of the people that loose 100lbs in 4 months and wonder why I can't be one of them. I feel like I'm doing everything right, high protein, low carb, lots of water. I guess I just get panicked because I feel like I'm loosing too slowly and then I start to wonder if I'll ever make goal. Sorry to sound so negative, its just I want this so bad and it scares me that I went through all this and it might not work. Thanks, Suz

Congrats!!!

Thanks everybody! I have been sipping more slowly and its been better!!! I just get so thirst I have to remind myself to slow down!

Hi everybody! So I'm officially sleeved, and I could not be happier!! I'm able to get all my liquids in and I just advanced from clear liquids to protein shakes and soup! My one issue is that when I'm drinking I get some tightness in my sternum area, its not my throat and its not my stomach. It's not unbearable and it usually passes pretty quickly but its a painful tightness. I'm just worried because I don't want it to be painful everytime I eat forever! Advice or input would be great. Thanks!

Hi I'm also 23 and I just found out I'll be having my surgery Feb 24th!!!

I just found out today that I am all set for Feb 24th!!! With Dr. Soriano in Philadelphia!
