I am 7 weeks out and I saw my endocrinologist yesterday. He informed me that I am no longer a diabetic. No more injections & no more pills. I love my sleeve.

You are definitely sassy, sexy and fit.

I won't miss...
-being out of breath from tying my shoes.
-my chins. All of them.
- under the boob sweat. (Classy...I know)
-the indentations left in my skin from too tight jeans & socks.
-lifting my stomach up to button my pants.
-wearing black everyday.
-granny panties
-dreading hot weather...tanks, short sleeves, bathing suits, shorts. Ugh!
-hiding behind others in pictures (ie...my profile pic!)
-feeling like I want to just sleep all day.
-the guilt after every meal.
-walking like a 90 year old up & down the stairs.
-fear of sex with the lights on.
-my mother saying the words " Now you just need to stick with it!" ( Nails. Chalkboard.)
-blood pressure medication
-making excuses.
-crying in fitting rooms
-the disappointment I have in myself
I'm sure there is more to add, but I needed to write it down so I can look at this when I'm in pain after surgery, or if I ever question my decision and remember exactly how I felt. I need to remember so I never ever re-visit this kind of lifestyle again.
I deserve to treat myself better. I am done slowly digging my own grave.
Like Garth Brooks says, "I'm much too young to feel this damn old!"
Fingers crossed that I can schedule a surgery date at my visit tomorrow!
I'm ready! Let's get this Protein party started!

So funny. Great sense of humor. Look forward to seeing.

You look really good. Way to go girl.

I'm in.
Starting Weight: 265
Goal Weight: 255

Its almost my anniversary !!

Mine is definitely bigger. This sounds like a fib but it is a full 2" longer. And for all you skeptics out there, go look at my picture gallery. I have a before and after pic on there. Just kidding.

Before at 223
Post op 60 pounds gone
Current weight is 160

Sleeved June 26. SW 186 (could have been a little higher in that pic) CW 155 GW 120 but that might be too much. We will see!

I love looking through all these photos!!
Here are mine

The picture on the left was taken Summer 2012 and the picture on the right was from last weekend. I was sleeved on March 4th! I am happy with my success so far but I still have a little more to go until I reach my goal.

This is the first time posting any pics. I am a couple days shy of 2 mos post op. Down 46lbs.

I had diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and sleep apnea. I did just fine. I'm 5 weeks out and the diabetes is gone.

My diabetes is also gone.

Hey I'm 27 and 5ft 8/9 - 173.5cm.
Starting weight 132kg
Surgery date and weight 15/10/12, 123.5kg or 272 pounds
Current weight 75kg or 165 pounds
Goal is 65-70kg over next twelve months

Everyone is intimidated by our physique. LOL

I am 4 months out and I definitely feel hunger. It takes a lot less to fill me up, but I do get hungry by lunch time or snack time. I just try to remember to eat a snack before I feel any hunger pangs, or by the time a meal rolls around, I'll eat too fast.
