Sallynew You are not alone in this struggle. Just try to stay focused and use the tool to help you as much as possible. It might take some time but you will get to your goal.

Voted!! Good luck !

Keep up the good work everyone!!! I see some have hit underland and some have boosted up the WL during this goal, awesome job everyone!

I recently read something that someone wrote on another VGS site that I’d like to share, she said “ This tool (VGS) is like hiking down a hill, and some people will take a more scenic route and some will run down to the bottom quickly, but in the end we will all reach the bottom of the hill” so try not to panic and go back to the basics when you feel you need to.

I love this saying “Just because your weight isn't shrinking, doesn't mean your waist isn't” it’s going to be my WLS mantra for the next week, thank you!

Wow, this is a great motivation! Congratulations!

That is wonderful!

Isn’t it a wonderful feeling?!?!?!? You keep rocking that sleeve all the way to goal!

Lorraine, I have struggled with that also and truthfully I still sometimes do, but it’s much better these days. Now I just need to eat slower and find Vitamins that both my sleeve and I like ( just order wellness liquid vitamins https://wellessebariatric.alice.com/ fingers crossed that I can tolerate them)! OMG 100 pounds in a year you should be very proud, keep up the good work and you will get to goal, its possible!

Welcome you will love this site, very supportive group of people! It looks like you’re a year ahead of me. I had my sleeve done 12/1 /11 I’m down 50 lbs. Do you have any advice to offer?

I had coffee and a cake donut at a 3 ½ hour long meeting Wednesday. I eat the donut in batches of 3 it took about 1 ½ hours and I had no real issues I felt the restriction and wasn’t over full, however by the end of the day I had to go to the bathroom (TMI) because my stomach felt upset, I thought I would have diarrhea but I didn’t. So what I learn is that donuts can be done with my sleeve and I get restriction but shouldn’t be done because of the tummy issues.

Yes we can!!!

I love this I just might have to give it a try!

This week I hit 51 pounds down from my surgery date, and I posted some pictures! I think I can reach my Easter goal of 229!
