I'm similar. Sleeved 2/28

Preop 243

Surg 217

Now 189

Size 18 or 2xl to 12 medium.

I was also sleeved on 2/28/13. My highest weight is truly unknown to me but I'm sure it was in the 250s. My highest recorded weight was 247. SW 226. CW 196. Comparatively I seem to be a slow loser but I sure do feel better and my blood glucose levels are excellent without the use of any meds.

Kayluc, I can really see the difference. You look great, and I also like your shirts. :D I'm similar to you - started at 340, my highest weight ever, and am now 280.

I don't see a difference much when I look in the mirror, perhaps my tummy doesn't stick out as far as it used to, I can't really tell. But I had to put jeans away in the closet: size 32, 30, and my 28s are large now. I had to buy my first belt, otherwise I'm constantly hiking up the 28s so they don't fall down. I can't find any of my smaller size jeans, thought I had some!!

My underwear are loose and saggy. Very attractive.

I am starting to feel like my skin is loose on my arms.

Exciting!! I think I look like a melting candle or something, but I have so much more energy already, it's amazing and exhilarating.

Hi all February Sleevers!

Was sleeved on Feb 4, down 58lbs and 3lbs from hitting the one's! Haven't seen this weight since high school! Was a size 24 now moving into size 14! Exercising 4-5 times a week! I feel great! In the beginning I hoped it would be worth all the pain. I can safely say Heck Yea! Keep going and dont loose hope! We are worth it!

I was also sleeved on 2/4 and went from 258 to 206. I've been on so many stalls but I'm sure my occasional cocktail isn't helping. I need to exercise more too but I am using excuses not to. I'm in the sandwich generation with elderly mom and kids still at home plus a full time job and my husband just had two hip replacements in the last two months so I can honestly say that the lack of exercise isn't really my fault. I'm running like crazy from 7 am to midnight everyday. I wish I could take control of "me" again! I need to get back on track. I sure look and feel a lot better though! ????

      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.
