I had to have a print out from the SD card in my c pap to prove compliance and had to have it with me day of surgery.

SW 264 down to 261 feeling pumped had been stalled at 264 for a week

I cooked from 5am until 12:30 my family made it great! My mom ask if I was not going to eat my (Dad my biggest supporter) jumped in and said "he ate 5 bites of turkey while he sliced it and he ate 3 bites of ham while he sliced it you don't want him to make his self sick do you" that took all the pressure from me and allowed me to bring refills and serve dessert which kept me from grazing. I actually really enjoined being of service to them! I busted my calorie goal for the day but I might have eaten 1/10 of what I did last year! I love my sleeve!!!!!!

Welcome! I am a fairly new sleever 8/20/13. I am also a addict 8/11/03 is my clean date so I understand putting down the dope and finding the fork! LOL. I worked out a plan with my sponsor for post op meds and everything went great congratulations on both decisions. Recovery changes us on the inside and the sleeve is a awesome tool to help us change our outside. I believe the same disease that drove me to use drives my compulsive eating. The steps work on both! Thanks for your honesty

3 days past 3 months sleeved on 8/20/13 down 80 pounds loving life!

Ok now that my account is fixed! Thanks Alex I am in SW 264 GW 250.

I am in CE 264 GW 250

Down 80 pounds total since I started this journey! 344sw 327 day of 262 today Surgery 8/20/13

I got lost in the shuffle of the launch of the new site. I was just getting to know a few on here I lost all my subscribe threads but I am glad to be back.

My 100 year old Grand Father was in the process of telling me how good I looked and then explained to me I would have already been married and had a kid or two if I had not gotten fat! Wow he failed to noticed I raised my ex girlfriends daughter and now I am raising her son also. ???? but life is good and I am 80 pounds lighter to enjoy my Grand Son!

My energy came back slowly I had to up my protein I do 100 to 120 a day. I am 12 weeks out and have more energy than I can remember. Just follow your nut. Directions as stated earlier as the weight comes off it gets better and better!

As a man that has struggled with my weight all my adult life along with self esteem issues I can tell you that the degree of difficulty in hitting on the hot girl goes up exponentially to the degree of hotness! You were probably looking for female feed back so I will be quiet now.

I cringe every time I see a thread that mentions calories...... I seem to be eating many more calories than most on here. I average 1200 I am less than 3 months out I have lost 70 pounds but my weight loss has slowed recently to a pound or two a week. I am eating clean very few carbs and drinking plenty of water but compared to some on here I am gorging myself. The guys at work laugh at my meals. 6 ozs of lean meat for lunch. I would like feed back also

For me it is more about bringing my secrets to the light of day. A bad choice is a bad choice I raided my 3 year olds Candy bag I ate 2 small peanut butter cups. I have been over weight all my adult life I am down to 275 from 344 I have worked hard to get here so I felt shame but I have vowed to be honest and allow myself be human. It was a bad choice I have been hungry all day and jonesing for sugar all day. It is a long way from gorging on the whole bag, hiding in the corner so that is a improvement. I have to look at thing honestly and call it what it is both good and bad. We all struggle with some of the same issues but are different people so do you. Negative feelings motivated me to do something different channeled in the proper direction they can cause positive change. I have never learned a important lesson from a perfect day. I am enjoying this journey and learning regularly.
