Starting Weightloss & Self Esteem campaign

[MazadiB 18]

Hi ladies/Guys

I am 1 year and 8months post op Sleever and some how I have found this love to inspire others to do the same not saying the actual surgery but the WeightLoss part and building the self esteem of others. I am curious to see who would be interested in something like this ?

Here's a little about me I have always been a big girl but to be honest I never thought I was insecure , I always dressed up being in the fashion industry as I am for over ten years you have to look and act the part so I think I spent so much time acting that I never realized how un-happy I really was until I was 5'2 264 pounds , chronic asthmatic , sleep apnea , one step away from type 1 diabetes . Long story short I am now so happy and completely comfortable with my self inside and out and I'd like to help others with that ; inspire you as you can also inspire me Don't think that because I lost the weight that I am sitting here feeling perfect NO there are things I still deal with from day to day .

[Hi there MazadiB!

Well done! You've sure put in the hard yards to achieve your success. I'm stepping on over to the other side on 14 April and just know I will also be successful. I'm giving myself 2 years to get where I am comfortable and need to be.

Thanks for pushing me on with your inspiring post.

I would love for someone to help inspire us WLS on our journey to better health, longer lives, and new us. Good luck. I have only lost 37 pounds since sleeve on 12/04/13. I am a slow with weight loss and no explanation as to why not losing as quickly as my daughter had surgery one week after me lost 69 pounds. Oh well I feel great no complaints just not sure why it is going so slow for me.

Hi Grandmaacj ,

I am more than happy to support anyone I can , as for your weight loss first I'll say that it's different for everybody; when I first had the Sugery within one month I lost 30LBS . But I understand what your saying , just make sure you'll doing all you can do like make sure your reaching your Protein levels , make sure you're eating small portions , not drinking while eating at the same time, make sure your not over eating because it's possible even if your sleeve stops you , you should be stopping your self before that and no worries I have issue with this myself .... Good luck
