Yes, I can eat more but I try not to by weighing my food safety I know how much fits. I went free music 3.0 Oz to 3.3 because my NUT said to go from 800 calories to 900-1000? Not healthy to eat so little. I still lose weight just very slow. But yes, I too am scared to gain weight so I'm very careful. Sw:285,current 179 yes saggy arms and stomach but I look great. Got my groove back :)

Thank you for the reply, I am very happy with the weight loss and also refuse to go back the way I was

Its exciting that I am able to walk up a few flights off stairs without feeling like I'm dying. I saw my nephew the other day and he didn't recognize me right away. I didn't realize how much I've changed until then. My confidence level is up I just get scared sometimes and know I'd be smaller without the hanging skin. I also think it is causing some back pain.I'm making an appointment with my surgeon soon to discuss possible skin removal.????

I was averaging 10-12 lbs a month. As of my 8 month checkup on 2/18/16 everything has come to a halt, no change. My diet or 5 day week exercise hasn't changed.

Any advice? still want another 29 gone

My surgery was June 9th. I'm continuing to lose weight, but it's frustratingly slow. I'm at 158 and would like to lose another 18 pounds. If I don't, I'd still consider surgery a success and am glad I did it.

Since we are eight months out I eat everything. popcorn and nuts. I eat Beans, Pasta and bread sparingly. It fills me up too quickly. I've posted before and I've received negative comments about my eating habits. But it works for me. I started at 200 and I now weigh 133...and I don't fluctuate much. I eat many times a day, but 4 or 5 bites. I don't log my food or count anything. Maybe I'm being naive or getting cocky...but I've done that my whole life and I feel free now. I can definitely eat more now. I don't think I've stretched out my stomach. I can eat very little in the morning, but as the day goes on I can eat more. I never drink alcohol, carbonated drinks, or juice. I eat chips, tacos, English muffins and Peanut Butter. Turkey Jerky, nuts, cheese, pizza, Sweets aren't my thing, and if I do eat them, it's a few bites. Don't eat ice cream. I love cheeseburgers (half with one bun). A taquito. Half a piece of chicken and four bites of salad with ranch. A few fries. Sweet potato. No fruit really. I eat what I want when I want...just four or five bites. I would really have to work at it all day and make myself uncomfortable to gain weight. I don't know if this is bad advice, but it works for me. I did lose 50% of my hair in Oct, Nov and Dec. It's growing back nicely now. That was scary!

Hi June sleevers, how's everyone doing? I had my 9 mnth check up and I am at 173, Sw 284. I'm still good with my eating mostly Protein as veggies. I look great and feel fabulous! I asked my Dr about skin removal if it's covered by insurance and he said stomach area is but not arms. So the stomach would not b a Tummy Tuck only skin removal but I could pay the difference, requirement is to loose min 100 lb which I have. So at my 1 yr well go over all that. So excited.

So close...so so close. My own personal goal was to be at 175 in one year. We June Sleevers are at the 10 month mark. I am at CW of 179, SW 320. These last 10 pound were and are so hard to shed. I hope my peers, June Sleevers, are having the success they desire. Skin removal my next adventure!

My fellow June 2015 peers....I have finally reached goal. My SW was 320 and have reached my goal of 175 within the first year. 10 months actually. Went from size 26-28 to 10-12. I followed the rules and exercised like a fool. Wishing you all success and better health.

It's kinda weird seeing June sleevers start to join together... June 2016 that is. I think June sleevers I think 2015, not 2016. Hard to believe it has almost been a year. A lot has changed.

Happy 1 Year anniversary! I have to say it did go fast. I have been very successful. I lost half of my entire body weight. SW 320 CW 160. I worked very hard and it has been worth it. My thoughts to all the other "June 2015" sleevers. Happier and healthier days to us all.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
