    Any June Sleevers?

    I started using the app on my phone called Lose It. I started tracking all my food and water intake. I realized I was eating way more calories than I thought. I have been able to control my intake and although my weight loss is at a plateau right now I know i have to keep moving forward with working out and making the best choices possible for my body. Even if the scale does not change remember every good choice is helping your body in so many ways.

    You are so welcome. I know much support means from someone how is going through it too. I have good days and bad days for sure but tomorrow is always a new day to do the right thing. We each have our own journey and our bodies know best. If we are giving it the important things and staying away for the bad then we are doing the right thing and we have to trust our body to do what it needs too :-)

    I know what you mean. I have weighted 197 once in my adult life so my goal is 196, I am getting there little by little. You will get to your goal very soon too, you are so close.

    I totally know what you mean. I know I am not in the same boat as other but I am a way better me than I use to be so I try to focus on all the positive things that have changed in MY life. I am also low energy, I have been for a few days. I am hoping it gets better soon. I am sure more Protein and Water would help that. We are all so different, don't worry about what others are doing. Each journey is so unique and special. You are on the right track. One day at a time :-)

    I am 205.5 today. I go up and down. I noticed that constipation and lack of Water are two things that really affect my weight. Trying to stay on top of all the important things. I am sure you will move past this plateau, just keep working on Protein, water, Vitamins and exercise :-)

    Tomorrow will be 10 weeks. When I look at the big picture 31.5 pounds in 10 weeks is awesome. I was 211 this morning. With each day I can see my body change and my clothes fit better. I know it is a little slow but honestly if I lost faster it would be hard to process. Right now I can take a little time to see the change and process. I am following all the doctors orders so now it is up to God and my body. This is a life long change, we will get there!!

    That is fantastic. I weighted 242.5 on June 25th when I was sleeved and I am 215 today. I hope to be under 200 very soon.

    My husband keeps reminding me we are in this for the long haul. The weight did not come on over night so it won't leave over night. Lol

    I go in waves. I will plateau for a few days then drop a few. Gain one then back to my plateau. I had surgery June 25th and am down 27 pounds.

    Hi all you June sleevers. We are all on the road to recovery and a new life. I am on day 9 and feeling pretty good for the most part. I am working on protein, fluids and walking. I am down 10.5 so far and it feels so good to be able to leave my 22/24's behind and pull out my 18/20's :-)
