What's up guys. Today makes one year post op. I've lost a total of 137 pounds and I still think getting sleeved was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Alot has changed in this year. I'm in a new relationship I will start music Engineering School in April and I've lost my job of 9 years. All these are good things though even being fired from my job. I can't complain it was good to me for 9 years and it helped me get the Surgery so it was well worth it. I love my new life. I work out 3 to 4 times a week. My weight is between 170 to 175. I'm lifting weights and running mainly. I eat healthy for the most part but I still indulge every once in a while (mostly popcorn....inny). One of the best things about being sleeved is being inspirations for so many people around me. I know 2 people who have watched my progress and who have also gotten sleeved. I'm gonna keep up the good fight. See you on the losers bench.

Great job bro.

How soon did u start hitting the weights after surgery. Im one week post op and I cant wait to start.

About 3 months after I started hitting the gym doing cardio. 3 months after that I really got into lifting. Don't rush it. I still do cardio but not so much. I actually felt like I was losing too much weight. I'd do 45 minutes of running and would burn up to 800 calories at one time. Now it's 20 minutes running (2 miles) and then in to the weights. Set yourself a goal. Try to figure out how you wanna look. Go for it. After a while it doesn't even seem like something you have to do its fun working out seeing the change and when other people notice it's great. I wanted to look good in a tank top this summer. I have accomplished that goal by far. Good luck homie

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
