I'm down 52 overall. I keep thinking I've stalled out, then I check back into my history a few weeks, and 10 or 20 pounds have dropped. It's just slow.

I also crave sweets - perhaps there's a cause-effect thing going on with the slow decline?!

SD was 1/4 and start weight was 240. I'm 5'8" and 56 yo. Bravo to you younger peeps taking care of this earlier in your lives than I did in mine. Keep being the losers you know you can be.

Down 65 today as of January 30th 2013. I need to update my profile pic, my face is so much smaller now. My personal goal is maybe another 20/25 pounds. I am unsure. If I never lost another pound I would be happy. I am not even trying at this point and the weight is slowly coming off. I am happy where I am. I don't know how to post a recent pic from my phone so if you want to see one go to Rycherchick@facebook.com

My personal Goal, as my doc does not do "goal weights" was to be down 80 lbs by my wedding on August 17, as of today I am down 75 lbs and still have two months to go!!! Do you know how HARD it is buying a wedding dress, and having the sales lady not believe you will loose weight? I've already had to take back one bought a 20 and four weeks later It was so big they could not alter it small encough... who would of thought I would ever have that problem? I LOVE my sleeve!!!

As we January sleevers get further out from our surgery date is anyone else thinking about the honeymoon period ending and the 6 month"window", I realize I will have to amp my exercise up and weight loss cannot continue at this pace but previous posts have me a bit apprehensive about what to expect. I still have a large chunk of weight to lose .....

I been think about this alot I've been stuck at 90 pound lose for almost three weeks and it bothering me I could exercise because after the sleeve about 3 months after I had to have emergency surgery on my hernia so that kept me on restriction for some time I just came back to work last week so now it's time to get in the gym I'm have 25 to 35 more pounds to lose I really would be fine we're I am but hey a few more pounds won't hurt .. Like I ate a small slice of watermelon and I ate it all I was in shock .. But I'm extremely happy w my weightloss and others think I've lost enough but I have a goal to reach

      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.
