Awesome!! I'm 4 lbs away!!!

Sleeved nov 7th. Down 75.

Here are some pics of me. I saw a post about not seeing yourself as others do now. I can totally relate!! I need to look at my pics to remind myself I have made a major change. At a dinner one night my husband took pictures of all the girls and when I posted it on FB I said to my friend I'm not even in this picture! I was. I just did not recognize myself. Take pics! And look at them often to remind you you are doing great!

Sleeved nov 7th down 70 lbs so far. Could not be happier!! My nutritionist said a good weight for me is 170 so that would mean 37 to go however I was 140 at one point in my life and that is my goal. So that means 67 to go.

On the 7th I decided to treat myself to a weigh in. I made the choice not to weigh myself except at nut appts and surgeon appts and each month on my surgery date. Well on happy proud and jumping for joy because in 3 months I'm down 60 lbs and could not be happier!!! How's everyone else doing???

Thank u!!

Here's before and after so far

Sorry I should of posted that. Starting weight 277 Congrats to all the Nov sleevers!!!

Thanks everyone !!

Days before surgery 277 lbs Almost 3 months 50 lbs gone!!

Ok the captions look reversed but I think you can tell which is which !! Lol

Lost 44lbs so far. Down from a 22/24 pants and 2x shirt to an 18 pants and xl shirt. Today 2 months ago I was having my surgery. The best thing I could of done!! How's all the Nov sleevers doing????

I hate to be graphic but hell we all have been through a lot so ok. I am almost 3 months post op. two weeks ago I had blood in my still after being constipated and straining. I figured it was maybe hemorrhoids. Well last night I had to go and I have been taking miralax to help so there was no issue with straining. There was blood again. Bright red which I know is symptoms of a lower GI issue. Just wondering if anyone had this happen and what was the outcome. Thanks

Sleeved nov 7th. Down 46. Have a trainer and a great friend who is a trainer so I'm taking tips from both going to the gym as much as I can Sw 277

That's great!! I'm down 45 and this week I went back to Dayshift for the year. Have not seen a lot of people in a while being a vampire and all. But I'm getting lots of compliments!! I smile and say thank you I feel good. Inside it makes me want to jump for joy!!! I also have one friend at work that calls me "hey skinny" instead of Donna now lol !!!

That fantastic!!!' Congrats!!!

You guys are doing great!!! We just booked a Florida trip for march so I'm stepping it up at the gym. Of course I'm sitting here with icy hot on my thighs because kettle bell squats killed me Saturday !!! I'm a protein shake breakfast girl on work days and off days a scrambled egg on a wasa bread I have to force myself for lunch. Snacks are a piece of cheese on a couple rice crackers and a strawberry or two. Dinner was short ribs with balsamic glaze and asparagus. I can get in 2-3 oz of protein at a time. It's rough. But I don't feel deprived because I'm not hungry. So that's a good thing.

Somerset county NJ here. Dr Sadek in Somerset and surgery was at RWJ. Loved him!!

Sleeved nov 7th. Down 40 lbs. I am cleared by my doctor to have my friend/trainer "kick my ass" at the gym. Which I am totally looking forward to!! My original goal was to try to loose 11 lbs a month so July I will be at 170 which is my first weight goal. But I know working out builds muscle which weighs more than fat so I am going to concentrate on my clothing. I would love to be a size 10 for summer I am wearing an 18 now down from a 22/24

My surgeon told me average loss per month for sleevers is 8 pounds. I think your doing fantastic!! My surg nov 7 and down 40. He is very happy with my work so far. But I also adore him because he would give me sound advice if I was not doing well. That nurse needs another job!! You are doing great!!!

That's fantastic!! I can't wait to post the same! 34 lbs to go !!

I'm freezing all the time too!! Especially at work because they have the air conditioner on 24/7. I'm in Jersey people!! It's freaking 30 degrees out!!

Jersey Girl here.

Would love to try skiing with my 7 year old twins! Ice skating and sleigh riding ok that takes care of winter. Summer I want to wear a bikini and a cute little sun dress. I want to sit on the beach without feeling like I'm the biggest person there oh and build a sand castle on my hands and knees with my twins!! Oh then go to a club and dance my ass off!!!

I've lost 40 so far and feel like a empty bag. So I wear spanx everyday. My neck is not bad but I'm going to get a neck fat toning wrap next Sunday. Maybe it will work maybe not.
