Thank you! Got on the scale this morning and I've lost another pound! Onederland is awesome!

I'm sure it will break soon! I've hit several stalls so far. When were you sleeved?

Thank you!

I am a Certified Pharmacy Technician. I was sleeved May 15, 2013. Down 50 lbs!

Where/when is the meeting in Plano? I'd like to join!

So for the past couple weeks I have only lost a pound or two on the scale but my clothes are fitting significantly different. I went from a 14 to a 12, and shirts that wouldn't button on me now fit perfectly. Has anyone else experienced this physical change without any actually change in the scale number?

Do you know of any support groups around this area?

I'm 2 lbs away and I can't wait! Congrats to everyone who's made it!

Thank you so much!

Just thought I'd share my results so far! Highest weight was 270, pre-op I was 246 and I'm now 205. I love my sleeve! Here's some pictures!

Thank you! I am 5'4"

Thank you and I'm glad I could help! If you ever have any other questions feel free to ask!

I really had no complications after surgery. I felt so great the first couple days I didn't think they had done anything to me. Days 3-5 were hard from the gas pains but walking and gas x really do help. My only problem right now is sometimes I take one bite too many and I feel as if my food is stuck in my esophagus and it makes me sick occasionally, but that feeling will pass if you give it a little time. Overall I don't have many problems or complications.

Thanks guys!

I was sleeved may 15 and I am down 41 pounds. 70 total including some pre surgery weightloss.

I too have the sleeve and would do it again if I had the choice. When I started this process I was interested in the lap band also but the surgeon suggested sleeve for this reason. He said that the lap band is a foreign object in your body and you run the risk of potential complications with that foreign object for the entire time you have it. He explained the sleeve to me similar to a breast reduction. It's easier on your body in the long run because you only altering/taking away what's naturally there rather than adding a man made object. I love my sleeve! Hope that helps.

Thank you! I don't know how that got in there but he is a cutie!

I've just started getting back into the gym this past month. I go to spinning and body pump classes several times a week.

Lol well you know weight loss surgery really did alot for me in the hair department!

Thanks : )
