I've considered Keto but I've always done better by counting carbs. Years ago I lost 40 pounds by watching my carbs but eventually gained it back then decide to have the sleeve. I do not regret it, my only regret is that I didn't do it years ago. My nutritionist told me that with my strong desire for sweets that I should have a piece of sugar free chocolate everyday. I just need to discipline myself and only eat sugar free and low carb. I have come too far to turn back now!

I understand. We stay pretty busy as we clean offices and something quick and easy has become our norm. I have a terrible addiction to sweets and snacks. There lies my problem. I used to go to the gym 3 or 4 times a week, now I think I'm too busy to go at all. I need a new mindset, a motivation that I must find within myself. I hope you continue on your journey with great success!

I am utterly ashamed of myself. I have not been following the plan. I initially lost 60 pounds with 30 mre to go to reach my goal but I have been eating sweets and have gained 10 pounds! I promised myself I would not do this after my surgery but here I am and I can't seem to get back on track, get motivated. Help me someone!

How are you progressing? I feel in slo-mo. Down only 22 pounds since my Sleeve on August 30th. I' m older than most of you at 62, so maybe I'm a slow loser, but I'm disheartened with my numbers.

Hi Everyone, I am about 9 weeks to my one year surgery date and 30 pound left to meet my goal. I lose very slowly, I guess because I am 62 years old and dont have a lot of energy to hit the gym all the time. I have lost 55 lbs so far, does anyone have any ideas on jump starting my weight loss so I can meet my goal?

Get another opinion, they may just be wrong.

You look amazing! Your goal is just ahead, you've got this!

Congratuations on such great results! I was sleeved on Aug. 31, 2018, I am almost at my 6 month mark and have lost 50 pounds. I am 62 years old and I understand that my rate of loss may be less than someone 20 or 30 years younger. I am 35 pounds away from my goal and 6 more months to lose it in, I sure hope I can do it!

Sleevers I feel ashamed of myself. I am 4 months out and I can eat a whole grilled cheese! I mentioned to the nutritionist that I had ate a grilled cheese, she was like, "You can't eat the whole thing can you?" Oh Yes I can, does this mean I have stretched my pouch? I'm so scared now.

Thanks Naughty Glitter Goddess for replying to my post. I'm trying to get back on track from the holidays too, which means more protein! I just hope the fact that I can eat a whole grilled cheese doesn't mean I've stretched my pouch. 😕

I was sleeved on August 31, 2018 at age 62, I have done really well and have lost right at 50 pounds.

I am a 62 year old grandmother of four, two of which are two month old twins! I am a Christian and I love spending time with my family. I love reading, baking, crafting and especially Christmas!

I envy those with this new found energy. That's the very reason I had the Sleeve almost 4 weeks ago, for my health. I was tired of being tired. But so far I haven't had any burst of energy, I'm still quite tired. I plan on returning to the gym soon, hopefully getting some type of exercise will help increase my energy level.

I am 5 days out, still quite sore since I also had a hernia repair. I wonder if I will ever feel better and able to get back to normal things. My emotions are running high right now.
