Naysayers

Hi everyone. I an getting super close to my surgery and I have been experiencing a lot of Naysayers regarding the sleeve saying you don't lose as much and the weight loss is slow. I would really appreciate some feedback. Maybe tell me what the weight loss for you in the first 4 months was and then monthly there after? Thank you so much in advance. BTW I am currently 364 and 5'5 I know weight and height also makes a difference.

I'm 1 year out. Started at 275 and now 157 today. Lost most in first 8 months. I'm at doc goal but 12 ponds from personal goal of 145.

I started at 380 and in less then 2 years hit my goal....The more you have to lose the faster it usually comes off in the honeymoon period....Weight Loss Surgery is like comparing apples to apples..Each has the main basics..Each are successful....

Just do what you want to do for yourself..This is your life not theirs!

I am currently two months out. I have lost a total of 64 lbs so far (25 pre-op and the rest post-op). It may not be as much as RNY, but honestly, I don't care. I feel fantastic. I have lost 20% of my bodyweight, I'm off all of the meds I was on pre-surgery, and I can do so much that just exhausted me before. I can walk with my bf and not feel like I'm slowing him down.

Thank you everyone. I feel so much better now and congrats on all of your weight loss!
