Band2Sleever 78 Posted March 30, 2014 More amazing transformation pictures! They are truly Inspirational How many months out are you now @@Julie G T ? How are you finding hunger levels and portion sizes? Thanks Betty (Currently: preop for conversion from band to sleeve. Previously: I had very successful band, but it failed mechanically and had to be removed. I have regained weight and am obese again and nervously waiting for a date fora sleeve) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fat2FiveK 31 Posted April 1, 2014 Congratulations!!! How inspiring! It's been a desire of mine to do a 5k. I started the Couch to 5k plan last year. Between week 2 and 3, I injured my knee and could barely walk. I've been getting injections into the knee and limping a bit since. My knees obviously decided I was too fat to run My doctor told me no more than 1 mile a day because of the knee issues. If I couldn't even walk for excercise anymore I felt like I was just going to get fatter and fatter until I died. That is when I decided that it was finally time to go for the surgery. The thought of surgery was scary, but death is a bit more scary! My surgery is next week and I can't wait to drop some weight so that my knee isn't quite so angry with me when I walk. I've rocked my preop diet so far, so I KNOW that I can do this. I've been busy picking out the 5k's I want to do first. One is in October and the other is in December. The finisher 'bling' is such a turn on!! Thanks for sharing your NSV! 1 Band2Sleever reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
