Hello all! It's been a while since I posted and I've had a few (minor!) setbacks! One, I didn't get to my sweet spot very quickly - and two, I ended up on crutches for a while for a ACL cyst - YUCK! But I'm finally at a point where I am cleared to exercise, and since my last fill (July 10th) I'm down 6.2 lbs. Thank goodness! I was starting to think that I was a big non-loser. :wink_smile:

My MD was great about it - I followed the pre-op diet to a T and only lost 3-4 lbs - I'm just a slow, slow loser. But even if it's slow, it's still progress, right?

It's so much more encouraging to see the scales moving downward instead of staying stuck at 251! :thumbup:

Wow - there aren't many people hanging out in here anymore. I'm STILL a slow loser - down 34 lbs at my 1 year mark. I'm okay with that - I work out with a trainer twice a week and am in the gym on my own three other days out of the week. Do I wish I lost more quickly? OF COURSE! But slow and steady wins the race :laugh:

Hi nurse, congrats on your weightloss. I believe slow and steady wins the race as well. Keep up the good work, and take care.

      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.
