So I am back on track...left the tropical drinks behind and back focused. It's a wonderful journey we are on! Focus your energy on the positive aspects because it's ALL neccessary for our higher good!

I was enlightened by a wonderful woman on the VSG group page on FB. For those of you who are going to have surgery with Dr. Zeni...They will tell you not to watch your carbs. I have lately learned otherwise and have been steadily losing weight now.

I feel great ! My weight has not gone down in months ,, But I can get into a size 8/10 misses pants... they are yoga pants , so they stretch, BUT i was wearing a size 18.20,sometimes 22 last year / before surgery.so I feel great . i triy

Just had my pre op two days ago my surgery is June 3 at 8 am I can't wait my start weight is 246.7 my BMI Is 41.5 I will start my liquid deit on the 27 I am starting to think if this Is what I want my family is not all on board with me and that makes me want it more I think my fam is all larger and they look at me as one of the smallest and it's just kinda hard

Ok so my surgery is going to be in June and for some reason I cant STOP EATING! What is wrong with me? I thought I would get a jump start and start losing weight before surgery but its like I want to eat EVERYTHING!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!!! God is good today I weight 243.6 I am so thankful

caught between wanting to lose some pre op weight and wanting to eat everything in sight "one last time"

50% complete with my six month supervised weight loss!

loves the weight loss, but not all the loose skin that comes with it!

Im really depressed. I am almost seven months out and still not loosing as much weight as i would have liked to. Im 248 again. I gained like 5 lbs. WTF! I know I ate terrible on Easter but really 5 lbs. So im reaching out to my fellow sleevers. I need advice. What is it your eating/and or doing to drop the weight. I was really hoping to have lost 100 pds by now. My sleeve is stallin!

Yay I hit 60 pounds weight loss today. I am so excited, my clothes are fitting looser. Only 48 more pounds to hit my first goal.

Tried golf yesterday. Different than I remember. I have to learn how to play again since I haven't been this weight in a very long time.

I have been at my goal weight for months now! So happy BUT I just found out yesterday that I'm Pregnant! Im so scared of the weight gain and yet Im scared I wont eat enough for the baby!! HELP!!

4 weeks today! Scars are almost gone!!! I just may wear a 2 piece someday! I am staying around 184 though iv gone from a 16 to a 12- my body is changing though not as big of a weight loss- thank you all for your support!!

Good morning all, I just wanted to share how I was feeling this morning and get some feed back for you guys. I am 30 days post-op and I have only lost 16.4 lbs. last week I didn't loose anything. So most of my weight lost came during the first 2 weeks! I was sure that I would have lost more by now. What am I doing wrong? I must admit that I have been having a hard time finding a protein that I can drink without gagging. All of the ones that I've tried have been disgusting and I c...

3RD week of stall.. wondering how long my body can fight the weight loss. Would love to hear from others 1-3 months out and how you are doing..

Still stalled around the same weight since 7/17 keep bouncing around thru 2lbs up and down. My body was stuck at this weight for a long time and I'm really learning why I never could stick to a "diet" before. I could never outlast the stalls and my body must be super weight loss resistant!

Excited as I reached my pre-surgery weight goal! Still have 3 weeks to go!

so I have figured out. I stall a day after my period for about a week and when I ovulate for about a week. Then the weight seems to fall off. I don't change what I eat. Go figure.

So I am 3 weeks post op and feeling great. Im on my to a better and wonderful new life. I finally get to do all the things normal people do...go to theme parks and get on the rides. Ride go carts. Shop at the mall. All those wonderfull thing. And all thanks to the sleeve surgery. First 7 days post op and I had lost 29 pounds with a total weight loss of 74 pounds. Its two weeks later from the 1st weigh since the loss of the 29 pounds and not sure how much I lost yet. But I'm in my way to m...

OK.....so I have this ticker. Can anyone tell me how to change the weight on it? I;ve kept going back on the website and I can't figure it out! Frustrating
