I am 4 months pregnant and 6 months post op and haven't gained a single pound I am still losing. Don't worry so much about gaining I mean you are pregnant. Take time and be thankful for the wonderful gift you've been given!

I was sleeved on Dec 21st 2012 I'm down about 30 lbs give or take. I read the posts before I was sleeved about "having so much energy I wouldn't know what to do with it" I think I'm the opposite I have NO energy I'm exhausted and so tired lately. I also feel that I am losing very slowly and I guess it just isn't what I expected. Maybe I expected a quicker loss. I just joined a gym and I need to push myself to go more frequently. Also I am so hungry all the time!!! What gives?? I also push my limits with what I try to eat too. Like no no things. I know this is bad but I guess old habits die hard. I didn't have surgery to go back to the way I was. I think I just need to take a step back and re-evaluate things. Advice?

@antiband I hope its just that then hopefully nothing else. Makes me a little worried.

Yes, I am taking B12. It just recently got this bad as far as being tired goes.

Hello all!!! I'm 2 months post-op. Im 2o-25lbs down so far. (not as much as i hoped i would be about now) My sleeve can tolerate a lot of things that other people are scared to eat i guess? I find myself getting hungry a lot. I feel like i can eat a lot. I eat and then im stuffed but if i wait like 30 minutes im hungry again. Does anyone else do this??? Im know that i am not getting nearly enough Protein in and frankly i cant stand it anymore. My tummy is flatter. Im in a smaller size jeans super happy about that. I can tell that i am getting smaller and i love it. I def do not regret my sleeve at all. I love it. Life is pretty awesome right now <3 advice and suggestions are welcome.

Im glad that i am not the only one thats hungry! I am working out i just started so hopefully that will kickstart me losing a little faster. Good luck to you lady!

Hey all!!! My surgeons office submitted my info im thinking either last thursday or friday. Im just wondering how long it usually takes??? i've heard of people hearing back really soon like in a few days... im just REALLY anxious for a yes or a no... i want this so bad and the waiting seems like eternity!!!! Does anyone have cigna (NALC) federal insurance??? or cigna in general? i just wanna know how long it took for you to hear back from them?? Patiently waiting Krysti.

You look beautiful. Great job girl!!!! Are you working out?

You look wonderful.

I can eat A LOT & IM HUNGRY!!!! Why??? Im on purees and i can tolerate some other foods like its nothing at all. Im not losing either, scale is stuck on 232 and has been for awhile. Stall?? I know im not hitting all my Protein needs. Im trying!! Could this be why im not losing or why im hungry? I just want to start losing again. Advice?

Ok so i was sleeved on the 21st and i was losing good and now the scale has gone up??? I started at 242 then it went to 227 now back up to 232 what gives? Does getting our reccomended Protein really help with weight loss? I know im not getting enough maybe i should start back on the basics im doing purees now i guess i just need some advice. Help!!

Look at you!!!! You look amazing =) Glad you had a great holidays with your newfound confidence!!!

I'll play along Today's weigh in 231 Goal by 4/1/13- 195 Wish me luckk!!

Sleeved 12/21/12. Down 11 lbs!

You look gorgeous!!! How much have you lost?,

Love the blog. Love the pictures. You look amazing.

I'm post op now but, i was right where you were. I talked about getting sleeved 24/7 and it was the only thing on my mind. I had to do 6 months. Trust me you aren't the only one. Stick it out. It will be worth it. I even gained like 10 lbs on my 6 months. I was a 42 BMI.

You look great!!!! Big difference, congrats

You go girl!!!! You look wonderful

So today = 5 days and im starting full liquids. I felt hungry yesterday and hungry today and i feel like i can drink a lot more than the days prior. Less gas pain and it almost feels like i have a full appetite and no restriction anyone have this feeling??? I've been real hesitant still about drinking too much at a time but enough to get in what i need. Any advice?

@kczar thank you for being so encouraging. I think its possibly head hunger i was not hungry at all before, then last night while everyone was eating christmas dinner i got hungryyy. So i drank broth and kept pushing liquids i hope i rock this sleeve and can be a sucsess story like everyone else.

You look amazing! End of story. Such a amazing journey, thank you for being an inspiration and motivator for others.

Morning everybody Down 5lbs so far yay. But im really hesitant about trying new liquids and like how do you know when you're full?? I get a rumbling feeling and like a gas pain so ill slow down but other than that i have NO hunger at all. Im still sip sip sipping, walking and taking my Vitamins i hope im doing things right is it ok to do more variaties? Im 4 days post op. Any advice or suggestions are welcome Was anyone on Protein shakes yet?? Thanks.

@yael thanks that gives me some more choices. Good luck to you.
