  1. Thank You. 31 lbs. Is an achievement. But, I've lost a lot more weight.
  2. Awwweeee Skikyd. My heart goes out to you. I love the new me. Only lost 31 lbs. So far in 1 month. I got the sleeve for me. No one else, but me. Congrats for a decision that changed your life for the better.
  3. Me too. Diabetes runs in my family. I was Pre-Diabetic. I have RA too and since the surgery, my pain is so much less. There us a sense of euphoria when you start to lose weight. Good Luck.
  4. Yes, my blood pressure is really low too... We need to exercise to get it up there. Before surgery, my blood pressure was high also. They took me off the meds. Congratulations!!!
  5. Go james112!!! You will love the new you.
  6. I feel like I walking on air. I walk my dogs and it used to be so hard and painful. Not now. It's fun. As I'm walking I feel slim and light as a feather. I still need to lose 44 more lbs., but if this is what 26 lbs. Feels like. Than 70 lbs. Is going to be Amazing and much more.
  7. I have lost 26 lbs. And people r saying you look like someone else and you r "The New and Improved Victoria.". I feel slim and it feels great!!! You will too!!! Good Luck!!!
  8. Lizzyloo, I feel you. I can't go to to my favorite dog beach. I park and walk 1 long stretch of sand and I have to take breaks. My young dig looks me and doesn't understand. I'm not going back until I lose weight and exercise. My RA is so bad I can't even get up and down on my towel. It was hard to play ball with my dog. I'm looking forward to many things in the future. Going to the beach is just 1 of them.
  9. For me, I used to look like Sophia Loren in my 20's. I was about 125. But, then emotionally over the years, a bad marriage and big weight gain. I was about 220 and I lost about 20 lbs. Being infatuated with a gorgeous man. Then the weight gain was 20 lbs. Reaching 240. I looked pregnant and all I want to do was sleep. I was addicted to cookies, jellybeans and carbs I hated my body. Also, my Blood pressure and Pre-Diabetic readings showed that I was headed for 300 lbs. So, I'm 218 lbs. Now. I can't wait to get below 200 lbs. I'm working out and eating Pureed foods at the moment. People would tell me "You're just voluptuous. You are not eligible because you aren't 400 lbs.". But, I was unhappy and I was eligible. I will lose about 70 lbs. And maybe a little more. It's been 3.5 weeks and I'm being good. I love how I feel. I have so much energy. I live in a mobile home with a tiny bathtub. I know how much I've gained by how I feel in this tub. So, even a smaller body is desired by me. My BMI was 46. , so I qualified.
  10. I'm sorry that you have had such a hard time. It's a vicious circle. You r depressed and then you eat and then you are more depressed. I like your post.

    TY Alfie. I thought of cancelling minutely and just sort of let the Universe guide. I just can't believe how good I'm doing. But, you suddenly realize you just had surgery 3.5 weeks ago and need to take it easy. I can honestly tell you that it's the best decision you ever made. My clothes used to be so tight. Now, they r comfortable and loose. Keep me posted as we have connected and I want to know how you're doing. Nice to meet you. The most important thing is that you eat enough Protein. Never ever thought about it before. You will be Enlightened by this experience.
