Down 80...size 6/8. Yeah. HW 222. 10/24

I agree - I would much rather have a bit of sag than FAT. I see mine most in my arms.

Congratulations to all! I was sleeved on 10/26 and down 42 pounds. I'm really trying to get motivated to really workout. I love that fact that I dont have desires to order pizza, eat burritos, and all of the crazy over indulgence!

Sad to hear your date was changed but keep moving forward! Although I am not LGBT, I have plenty dear friends who are and I just love good people! Good luck with everything!

Sleeved on 10/26. If you use my fitness pal, please friend me at flawlessly73. Happy losing!

Sleeved?????

Hello fellow sleevers and sleevers to be! I am officially in one - derland weighing in at 196. This is a very happy day for me and I am proud of my efforts. Next week will mark my six week milestone and I can begin exercising. I've starting doing a little exercising already but I am ready to hit the gym and buy a bike to ride through the neighborhood. I have not been under 200 pounds in years. My blood pressure has been normal and I feel like a million bucks. In early December, I bought a pair on slacks from Kohls (size 18) and they were tight! Well, I put them on Friday and they were good and loose! I ordered the Cytosport Whey Isolate protein drinks from Vitamin Shoppe to supplement my diet and they are sooooo good. Not a shake and not thick and yucky but they remind me of crystal light or a good tart Kool Aid! Earlier this week I went to Wal-Mart and discovered Great Value brand chunk white chicken. They come in different flavors and for lunch I am eating the lemon pepper flavor. It is a subtle flavor and very good - I can't wait to try the others that I bought. Good Luck to you all! I am happy happy happy that I made this change in my life!

Congratulations ... this is awesome and gives me more to look forward to! Thanks for sharing!

Wow! Great progress!

Congratulations! I was sleeved on 10/26 and down 20lbs. Your success is a definite inspiration.

Kohl's is having a great sale with 15% off. I bought a few sweats for 9.99!

Congratulations! You look great. How much have you lost?

Per my surgeon ... its fluids not just water.

Very strange. My three week appointment was last week and my doctor was thrilled by my 15 lb loss...20 as of today. I don't go back for another two weeks but he said....lets set 8 lbs as your next goal and remember that Protein and fluids are the key... I've also seen a lot of post from the vets that say increased protein can break a stall in weight loss. Baffled by your doctor ...

Look at that smile!! You look great! That smile shows that you feel great also.

Congratulations! !!

Dont give up. My BMI was 39 but I have high blood pressure. Was sleeved on 10/26 and only took BP meds 3 times since . Good luck to you!

Always remember that actual weight doesn't determine your full success level if you are working out because you are burning fat but building muscle. Dont forget to look for changes in your body and your measurements. I'm only a month out...20lbs down... and hope to have as much success as all of you!
