I was sleeved on 11/13 and I have been eating a piece of chocolate here and there and I am still losing everything in moderation and when I say one piece here and there its like once or twice a week if that. You don't have to deprive yourself just limit yourself without this sleeve I would have helped myself to a whole box of sees candy in two days tops so don't worry it does get better

the thing that you have to think about is that this surgery is it is only a tool. There will come a time, you can eat what you want, but ask yourself is it worth it. You let them cut you open and take out most of your stomach. Do you want things to go back the way they were? You can say..well its just a little bit...but really you don't want to go back to those old habits. I'm not preaching, but you have to look inside and make the changes you need to be healthy and stay that way. That's going to mean a change in the diet and the mindset. To make this work, you have to work it.

Hang in there and keep your eye on the prize.

I am going to print your comment and post it were I can read it every day!!!
