I hope it all works out for you! Has anyone ever heard how Nailsbyniki is?

I don't take surgery lightly. I have a disabled husband and three daughters (14,12 & 10). At the rate I was going, I was on the path to a heart attack and other ailments which really could have limited my life. Now, I find that I'm starting to get a passion for clothes shopping again, I'm smiling more and the best of it is I feel amazing! This was the BEST thing I ever did for myself! I LOVE my sleeve! Where are you having your surgery?

Hi everyone, So far so good. My weight loss has slowed down but I've been going to the gym so that happens when you first start out. Plus, some hormone issues so that affects things too. I'm down to 196.6 and I feel really food at 3 1/2 months out. I wish I was losing faster but after being down 32.4, I'm not complaining. I work out about 4 days per week and really try to maintain a more active lifestyle. I get compliments all the time which makes me feel great. I find that I can eat about 1,400 cals on the days I work out and burn about 550 at the gym so I'm happy. I'll be doing my blood work in about a week so I'll check back in after that! Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Hi Everyone! Sorry I haven't posted~been so busy with my kids! I feel really good! Lost 20 the first month, 5 the second month and down another 2.3 so far this month. Total = 27.3 Starting Weight 229 Surgery Day 220 Today 201.7 Still having trouble with my water and really need to try harder with that! Getting most of my protein in because I still drink shakes everyday. Starting to lose some hair but I feel great! How are all of you doing?

Hi, I lost 8 pounds pre op and I'm not sure if they weighed me in the hospital or not cause I really don't remember that. It looks like you had your surgery yesterday so keep us posted. 5 pounds is great! I'm down 25 now. It's slow but I'm not drinking enough water and I'm not exercising. I know when I step that up starting this weekend, I'll be really happy!

Congrats to both of you! Yes, it includes my pre-op diet as well. I'm down 20.5 total. Looking forward to 30 pounds next!!

I think my almost 2 week stall has finally ended! Pre op-229 SW (3/3)-220.1 1 month-209 Today-208.5 It's been slow coming off but I know without my sleeve, it would be miserable and 20.5 pounds heavier!

1 month post op..... I LOVE my sleeve! I'm so glad I did this! Even though I had a stall for almost 2 weeks that I finally broke this week, I feel amazing!!!! So far, I'm down 20.5 pounds! Yesterday marked one month. I know if I didn't have my sleeve, I would still be sluggish, 20.5 pounds heavier and not fitting into my clothes better! Best decision ever!!!!

Thank you!!!!

Feel better soon!!!

I'm almost 4 weeks out and down 18.6 pounds (8.9 PreOp and 9.7 post op). I have been at a stall for about 10 days. I am going to up my water and protein and see if it helps too!!!

You'll be so much happier with the sleeve after a week of recovery. I just wish I didn't have this stall. It's so frustrating!

I know...I'm trying to get all the water in now. I drank more yesterday and I'm still at a stall. So disappointing!

@Heather~ that's great! If I remember correctly didn't you have a stall? I am almost 4 wks out and haven't lost anything in a week. I'm not drinking much water so I'm going to try to drink what I should today. When did you stall and for how long? It's so frustrating!

Hi, I'm feeling really good! Back to work full time and been so busy. Haven't really lost any weight this week but only drinking like 16 oz of water & I think that's why. Going to try to get my 64 oz in today and see if that breaks the stall.
