lwilliams65 102 Posted March 5, 2014 A little over a year later. Started at 253 now 145. 20 pounds from goal. Thank you gastric sleeve. Changed my self esteem changed my life. I wish i had better preop pictures but I always stayed away from cameras. The first two are a day before surgery the last one was a couple weeks ago. I'd have this surgery again and again. The first few months adjusting was Hell but I wouldn't change a thing. I love my sleeve.

Would you mind sharing how you handled your sleeve adjustment phase? Thanks! Ya know I really didn't do Anything special. I found the foods and portions that worked for me and stuck with it. I stick to a calorie budget and try to focus on Protein intake. Everyone is difference so just do what works for you!' 1 catnapper reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
