Hey all my feb sleevers!!!!! I'm so glad u posted this because I was sleeved 2/10 nd thought I was losing so slow but so pleased to see I'm on track with the rest of u guys!!! I'm eating pretty much anything I can handle and learning what I can't... Down 20 lbs since surgery and 37 in all!! I'm learning more creative ways to get my protein in but still working on getting all my fluids in. Still a daily struggle sometimes not to snack!!! My fiancé has been a super support and encouragement and I am very grateful for that! The weight loss so far is encouraging me exercise more and I'm feeling better overall!!! Was having difficulty comparing my results to others so I'm feeling better now.... Thank u!!! Good luck to all xoxo

Amazing!! Excellent job... Honestly outstanding!

Hi !! I had my surgery 2/10 n I'm in north nj!! I'm a lil discouraged myself. Was down 17lbs at 3 weeks and haven't weighed myself since.... How is ur progress going?

I had my surgery 2/10 and any little thing I eat burns like heartburn n I'm getting a terrible pain in my middle upper back. I'm on omperazole from my dr and I take it religiously but it's not helping. I eat very small amounts and slowly and it still kills to go down and I sit uncomfortably after everything I eat or drink I'm freaking that I'm gonna end up with an ulcer from all the reflux.... Has anyone gone throught that?

Omg how wonderful!! U look great!! I'm hearing all these stories about 3 months out losing 60-75 lbs... N I'm so jealous I'm getting discouraged can u give me any tips?!?! how much did u lose in month 1, 2, 3?

How's the progress going my fellow feb sleevers?!?

Omg u look amazing and have done sooo awesome!!! What r ur secrets??????? PlEase share!!! I'm 3 weeks out and have only lost 17 lbs

Hi ny2fly... Lemme know what happens n what they say? R u already taking any reflux meds?

I had surgery 2/10 and have same exact thing!! I'm also getting serious heartburn and pain in my back. No matter how little I eat or how slow i eat it constantly feels like its coming up and I'm scared I'm goin to end up with an ulcer :/

Had my sleev 2/10 at 2.5 weeks was down 14 lbs. haven't weighed myself since. I haven't exercised yet... Did anyone see an increase in weight loss when the started to exercise???? I need encouragement of some sort, kind of disappointed :/
