Hi-- I'm new to this site and very thankful I found it. I'm 8 months out from sleeve surgery. I've lost a total of 80 lbs since starting the process, but only 50 lbs since the actual surgery itself. I had my surgery at St. Vincent's charity hospital in Cleveland, OH and had a fantastic experience, no problems at all. However my inner voice is killing me as of late. My original goal is 27 lbs away, yet I'm beating myself up that I haven't lost it yet, which makes me gravitate towards eating out of being depressed (what I did pre-op). I'm so fearful this is going to spiral out of control and the next thing you know I will wake up pushing 267 lbs again!
