Hey to all April 2010 Sleevers!!!!! Its been a year and my has the time passed....I am in onederland, yaaay!!! and couldn't be happier.....my life has brand new meaning and I've never felt better.....I have a daughter leaving for college in a month and two toddlers to keep up with so the weight loss was something that was so necessary for me at this point in my life.....A year later and 100+ pounds lost I am happy to report to you all that all is certainly well with me.....When I've stalled, I go back to the basics which for me is no carbs for a few days and back to my normal eating habits and it has always worked.....I am so happy I could burst!!!! All the best to you guys and I wish you continued success and for those who are having a hard time hang in there because it shall pass. blessings to you all,

I am 11 months out and was doing really well with everything until recently....for the past couple of weeks I have been disguisted by eating. I fainted @ work yesterday which was utterly embarrassing....when I go into my kitchen and there is food on the counter or stove I wanna throw up....has anyone experienced this? I don't want to be anorexic so I want to nip this thing in the bud ASAP.....advice please cause I don't know what to do.

Hi guys!!!! I was sleeved on April 19th and I feel fantastic!!! I've lost 63 pounds thus far....my hair is thinning but I try to see the big picture.

Thanks guys....I started the 5 day pouch test yesterday and I really feel better already...not craving carbs or anything so I am hanging in there, not giving in because I went through too much to have this surgery and I am determined to make it work for me. Tiffy, you should really consider writing a book or something....you always have the answers....seriously!!!!

Hello everyone.....I need some help to get me back on track....I'm half way to my goal and I'm at a stand still with my weight loss....I'll admit that I have had a potato chip here and there and a few pieces of candy....how do I get back after falling off the wagon....I want to continue with my progress but I feel so lost and defeated and I know that this is something that I'm doing to myself....give me some advice and encouragement pleeeese!!!

Hey y'all!!! I was sleeved on the 19th and I feel great!!! On mushies right now but Monday I start on fish and I can even have cheese...I like many others are still basically doing liquids cuase mushy food is not appealing to me at all, in fact it grosses me out....anyhoo, I loving my sleeve. I weighed myself at my last appointment on 04/30/2010 and I lost 25 pounds.......yay!!! I'm just praying that the fat continue to melt off of me, losing weight has never been a problem for me, I just could never keep it off so we'll see...I am praying the best possible outcome for everyone and Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there. blessings, Val
