August 2012 Sleevers?

[Ladybug78 1]

Hello All! Any August sleevers out there? Getting discouraged with this stall. Down 50lbs, the scale hasn't moved in quite awhile. Anyone else have this problem? I have had limited complications, nothing terrible, and can eat anything I want but in small amounts. Trying to stay positive, but it's getting more and more difficult. I know the holidays are coming up, and some food choices have not been the best but come on!! Need words of encouragement and helpful stories of others that may be going through this. Thank you!! Best wishes and Happy Holidays!!

Sleeved 8/21. 53 pounds down. I lose on average 1-1.5 pounds a week. I've had stalls but I just keep working the program and know that by this time next year i'll be fit and healthy. Try to look at the big picture., stopping to Celebrate the small victories along the way. That makes stalls easier to deal with. Hang in there!!

I was sleeved 8/21 and am down 66 lbs. Feeling great now and feel like I've found my 'new normal', but the first six weeks were pretty rough.

Sleeved 8/28 and I'm down 50, I am very slow loosing right now. I also am frustrated healthy meals don't go down well but snacky stuff does way to well. I want to eat like a normal person but can't :/ also anyone else have dizzy issues? I get dizzy when I stand up. All my labs r normal.

sleeved August 16. I am down 52 pounds. Very little problems to report. Early on was tough. Restriction is less now, some days I can eat more than others. I have three meals I love... chicken tortilla Soup, filet mignon and veggies, and sashimi! Those are my go to foods Cravings gone. Can't eat bread. My hips, knees, and feet feel normal again, no pain My arms don't stand out like a linebacker anymore. Everyone notices and says, "OH my god, what are you doing?" I simply say eating less and exercising!
