Sleeved 10/18 here, I feel great. I can drink like I used to, and I have no problem eating pureed stuff. I had chili today with melted reduced fat cheese and a dollop of FF greek yogurt, it was sooo delish!

I have so much energy, I cant wait to go back to work on Monday and start living again..

This certainly is the best thing I have ever done in my life!!!

I was sleeved the 19th. So far I have lost 20 pounds. My family has already begun complainting on my shrinking body. I feel great but I am still on liquids until 11/5... most nights I dream of food. I can't wait for the next stage. I am going back to work on Monday i am interested to see how I feel it's a desk job not to taxing but I will miss my afternoon nap.

I was sleeved on 10/17 feel great no pain at all still trying to get in all the liquids plus Protein. My goal for tomorrow is to get those liquids in and focus on that to see how much I am actually drinking everyday. I start Purée food Monday and really need some recipes on what to eat. I am down 25lbs so far taking everything one day at a time looking forward to the day when my clothes fall off and I am forced to buy new ones. Refuse to shop now I have noticed clothes are fitting better and my energy is great. I hope all my fellow 17th sleevers are doing great lets stay in touch and check in on November 17th and see how we are doing and let's encourage each other to lose this weight and get healthy. SMOOCHES

Hi!! I was sleeved 10/17, I feel pretty good and am down 22lbs so far! Still struggling to get all the Protein and Water down, but got a few things to try from the nutritionist, so today is a new day to do better. The one thing that surprised me is missing food so much! I didn't realized that part of my issues with food. The normalcy of chewing will be most welcomed! lol Thanks for the recipes, looking forward to trying those.
