FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved

[emmyjeep2 7]

wow congratulations to everyone! I feel a little discouraged though because it seems everyone has lost over 90+ lbs I have only lost like 62lbs (which I'm very grateful for don't get me wrong) I guess I'm just a slow loser!

I'm on my phone so I don't know if you stats are posted but do know that everyone here has not lost almost 100 lbs. I am at 79 lbs down since DOS 2/20. That's not much more than you and my weight loss has slowed significantly the last few months so these last 15-20 lbs are not going to go without a fight. Keep doing what you're doing. It sounds like it is working.

You are doing great! I am also a "slow" loser if I look at it that way. Everyone's body is different.

Hi all: I've been grieving for the loss of our original VST.com forum. I don't like the new app or the name "Bariatric Pal" and preferred the smaller pool of participants. But I missed you all too much and realized that I need the support and encouragement for myself as well as the inspiration I get from seeing everyone's wonderful weight loss accomplishments! It is also important to me to be a source of support and encouragement to others in their journey. So here's to all my fellow Feb. 2013 sleevers!

I feel the same

Hi all! I haven't been here in a while (I guess since I reached my goal weight), but I missed hearing everyone's stories and updates. As for me, my original goal was to be at 130. My weight on surgery day was 183lbs, however I am now at 109. I keep losing weight and I am not sure if its something to worry about. I don't want to get super skinny. I am 5;2"....When I was in high school I weighed 108. I am 1lb away from my high school weight. Yikes! I'm worried about the sagging skin on my thighs. Everywhere else is ok. I had surgery Feb 28, 2013. On my surgery aniversary I am planning on getting breast implants, brazilian butt lift and a thigh lift.

[Chelenka 827]

Congrats on reaching and surpassing your goal! My surgery was on 2/28 also. I have lost 85 lbs so far and have 20 more lbs to go to reach my goal. This month my weight loss has stopped. Guess I'm in a stall. Bummer.

It's been a while. I'm closing in on my goal. I was sleeved on Valentine's day this year. I'm down 213 from the heaviest and around 190 from the preop phase.

Happy Thanksgiving every one! Today is my 9 month surgiversairy and I'm so thankful for it! I'm down 88 lbs! I have been in a stall for the pst month but I'm gonna keep working at it. I find that I struggle with head hunger a lot. Stress really makes me want to eat. But also I have real hunger. I was hoping I wouldn't care about food and not really want to eat but for me that is not the way it is. Thankfully, I can't eat all that much! Blessing to you all!

Hi Feb Sleevers! I wish more of us would check in as I miss hearing from everyone but with the new website, who knows who is still on here. Here's my Thanksgiving update which I am so thankful to be able to report results like this! Down 82 lbs since 2/20. In July 2012, I asked my MD to start the process. I am now over 100 lbs down from then. CW: 151. Goal weight 135-140. So bizarre to think I am only about 15 lbs from goal! I do struggle with head hunger and old disordered eating habits but I keep plugging away. We can do this!

Sooo...Ive found my way to this new app. The jury is still out. Insty who guys, today was our first Thanksgiving, and my goodness I dont know if I was prepared! Officially down 92 lbs from 300 with SD of 2/13.

Im proud that I didnt go completely crazy and definitely happy Ive got this sleevw to give mw some control!
