As August 2012 Vertical sleevers who started here on the vertical sleeve talk and then formed a group on Facebook where we could have more updated talk, discussions, post pictures, and support one another we have found that group a wonderful family support group, now we would like to invite any summer 2013 sleevers to come to a group we have formed for mentoring, help, and advice and hope to give back and some support to the new group....its a secret group so that you may feel comfortable discussing anything, (we have found there is nothing we dont discuss or that is TMI=to much information) you will need to add me as a friend and then I can add you to this group where its secret, please send a message with your friend request so I know you are a sleever here is my direct fb link so you can add me https://www.facebook.com/klyn.mcmickell....

I am a little over a year. I am now down to 125 lbs. I am trying to keep from losing too much weight.

I am still exercising and running. I wear a sz 2-4 from 22-24 and sm- med from 3x.

This is a picture from last Saturday.

Hey i was sleeved aug 28th 2012. I have been on a horrible stall! I am 157 right now I started at 240. Since March when I had my gallbladder out I have only lost 15 lbs! I bust ass at the gym normally doing 1 hr cardio and lifting for at least 30 mins. My np said I'm doing fine but I feel like I'm never hitting my goal! I see so many ppl sleeved around when I was already at goal! I'm so discouraged

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
