5 months out today



Recommended Posts

I had to post on my sugerversary, I love my sleeve!!! I have lost 61 lbs in 5 months and before surgery couldn't lose any. The inches are still coming off as my body changes. I haven't lost much in the bust area so kinda happy about that :) The throat area is what bothers me the most (droopy) blah!

The Hair loss seems to continue -but has leveled off without getting worse. I'm happy and have decided the rest of the weight will come off when it wants too. I'm still walking though not 6 days a week more like 4 days and keeping my 4 yr old granddaughter 4 days a week, that in itself is a workout.lol

I'm in size 12 jeans from 18 women and lg tops from 2x. I do tend to eat the same things repeatedly but it is grilled salmon so it is healthy.

I do feel I have added years to my life and it makes me happy dance at least once a day!

I hope you all are doing great too!! You are the best!!

Congrats Carla,

I am also getting the droopy throat thing, but think I'll be happier thin than bigger with a puffy neck!

Keep up the great work and I?m sure we'll soon be seeing your target post, and a very happy dance then!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
