sbg224 318 Posted October 27, 2015 I was sleeved, 8/3, live in California but born and raised in the Bronx. Where do you live. I am 5'4" starting weight 253.5 day of surgery, today 224lbs. Pre op 268. Losing slower then I would like, but it is what it is. I say the surgeon did his part, I am doing mine and that's all we can do. I am very strict sticking to the plan. Trying to get my activity level increased.Ask away any questions I will be open and honest. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
