Hello all! I had the Gastric Sleeve on January 20, 2015. I've already experienced the famous stall and was about as frustrated as most of you. I have appreciated all of the posts and information I've found here. You all have helped me tremendously! So, I'm not someone who posts alot, not even on my Facebook, but just really felt the need to share a bit. I'm 44, been overweight since I was 22 (after birth of my son) and finally just had it. I was able take a leave from work and finally do this! Best decision ever! So, stats. .hw recorded 258 in August 2014..sw 230, currently 217.7. 19 days out...not bad. ..looking forward to a healthier, happier me! Good luck everyone.

*wanted to add I'm only 5ft tall ????

Welcome! I've learned a lot from this site, plus it's fun to share milestones, etc. Have a nice honeymoon - I'm still in mine, but feel like the clock is ticking down.....

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
