Becca

So glad you are back! Way to go on your weight loss! WOW~

The sleeve rocks! Congrats!

That's great! So happy for you.

You will do great! Just stay positive through those first few days. The sleeve is awesome!

I had a little stall around three weeks. My clothes were fitting bigger though. I really think it is something biological because so many sleevers go through stalls here and there. Then the scale starts moving again.

Maybe I ate too fast since I was really hungry...I probably need to take TINY bites! -And sorry for the typo in the title. It should say "your" instead of "you". LOL

Funny, before reading this, I just posted about my first "sliming" experience. I ate some hamburger meat that my sleeve didn't like. It all came up. That is the ONLY time it has happened. I am thinking maybe I didn't chew it well enough, but who knows?

My surgery got bumped to December 27. I am down 30 pounds since the sleeve and 72 pounds total with the lapband. I do LOVE the sleeve!!!!

You look great! Congrats!!!

WELCOME!!! So glad you are here. : )

I hated my band and I LOVE my sleeve. I mean really, really love it! It has changed my life in such a positive way. Food used to have so much control of my life and it is so nice to be free!!! You will do great. Good luck and don't worry. You are making a great choice!

You are super lucky!!! Congrats. You will LOVE the sleeve.

I HATED the drain. It hurt like crazy when they took it out. I did have soreness for a few days where the drain was, but now the pain is totally gone (7 weeks out). That evil drain is a small price to pay for all the benefits of the sleeve! LOL

I almost made it! I got down to 215. Just one pound shy. Time to step it up for the next challenge!!!

I am hoping to get to ONE-DERLAND by the end of this challenge! SN..............Starting Wt........Current.......Goal.......Lbs to Goal Becca...............215.................215.............195..........20

Congrats! The time will fly and you will be sleeved before you know it.

Little girls are such blessings! Glad you are doing so well.

You look amazing! CONGRATULATIONS! I couldn't be happier for you.

Whatever it takes to get the sleeve! LOL

I am so happy for you! Congrats! The sleeve is great!

Awww...don't worry. You will do great. The sleeve is such an amazing tool. It will change your life in ways you can't even imagine for the better. You can do this. You will love life with the sleeve!

I only had to do a two day liquid diet and it make me feel weak (and crazy)! After surgery, it is different because you are in recovery mode and you don't really have an appetite. It can be tough, but hang in there. The sleeve is so worth it! Plus, you are getting a head start on your weight loss. You can do it!

I was completely addicted to spinning the year I lost 70 pounds with the lapband. (Then it broke and I gained back half). Even when I weighed in the 280's, I was able to do it. Granted it was painful the first few classes. I belong to the YMCA and we have some great teachers. If you have a good teacher, it can make all the difference. I stopped going when the band started causing me physical pain about a year ago. I am planning on going back this week. I have been starting slow with the treadmill and weights. Now I think I am finally ready six weeks post op. I hope I can keep up! My advice: Ask for the seat cushion, see if they have any beginner classes, and keep going. Your body will adjust and you will grow to love it. I love the way I feel after spin class. NOTHING else makes me work that hard!
