Hi
I am looking for fellow MFP sleever friends. I had my sleeve surgery Nov 9th 2016 at a starting weight of 267. I have lost 44lbs so far and want to keep losing for my goal weight of 135. I'm looking for friends to celebrate with and be inspired and motivated by.
I look forward to watching you shrink.

    Home after sleeving Wednesday and working on my liquids and protein shakes. I knew it would be a challenge, but I don't think you know until you feel it, how little you can take in at a time. I haven't taken my pain killers because it's liquid and tastes so awful, I'd rather hurt a bit! Doing okay without it so far. The stomach binder helps. Thank you for the well-wishes!

    Happy to hear all is well with you post surgery. I had my sleeve in Aug 2015.
