I'm 5 months out and it is slowly sinking in that I have went from almost 200lbs to 126lbs! It really hits ya when you buy a few new outfits each month or so. Maybe that will help you feel like you're really smaller... I love buyinclothes now! Sometimes I just try stuff on with no intention of buying just to see where I'm at... Try that....You look awesome by the way!!!

I know. But it won't take long until you'll be really encouraged. It's a lot of work and a major change in your life (forever) but it is effective and permanent...

Slow and Steady not my style
slojo replied to gingerRN's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc never said this. Slow and steady is probably better, but it's not my style either and it's not how i've done this. I've lost 58 lbs in 4 1/2 months out from surgery... -
How can this math be possible ? The Sleeve is not working.

I stalled pretty regularly until 3 months out then started losing like crazy...My boss experienced the same thing... -

slojo replied to lissa2270's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is totally normal. Can have good days and bad days for a while. Get your water/fluids, and protein in... -
Four weeks post-op and feeling blessed
slojo replied to EnigmaInKY's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep, I went through the same emotions. It just keeps getting better from here on out... I'm 5 months out and each day is better than the recent...I feel fortunate that I was able to have this surgery... I don't regret it for one minute...Glad you're feeling the same... -

Whay i haven't lose any weight in 7 months post-op! why, why? any one out there?
slojo replied to chiki's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I guess the doc checked your thyroid? Just a thought... I started eating more and came out of a stall at three months and have been losing pretty steadily... -
YAY!

slojo replied to NisaletOAM's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
