Hi! Congrats on ur weightloss! I am in preparation for a sleeve at this moment! I am looking for more friends 4 support in this decision.

I completely support you! I get judged all the time cuz I'm getting my bypass, but those people don't have to deal with my co-morbid conditions and pain. I haven't announced it on Facebook or anything becuz I don't want to hear it.

Hello all! I just had the sleeve surgery February 20th! I feel all of you that say you get judged about having the surgery but it's a very personal decision. It isn't always just about the weight loss. I have sever PCOS which was why my gynecologist suggested I look into the procedure. I told very few people prior to the surgery to avoid the looks and comments about it. But since the surgery, I've told quite a number of people and I've gotten fewer judgmental looks and comments than I thought I would. It has been life changing for sure! But in the best way! My entire family has benefitted. I am 3.5 months post op and as of today I'm 48.9 lbs down. I did lose some on the liquid diet the 2 weeks prior to surgery so it's been a total of 4 months. I feel so much better and I've adjusted to eating better and more often. Lots of protein has been the key.

I look forward to hearing about everyone's progress on their own journey!

Hi ladies!! I'm 2 years post op from gastric sleeve and I'm now dealing with 35 lbs of re-gain. I worked with a personal trainer last year, then had to quit due to tax season in my accounting firm and working 16+ hour days. I lost accountability, got complacent, started stress eating crap food, and now I'm dealing with it. No, I don't regret it because I'm learning a lot in this process. I've recently gone back to school too so I'm learning how to handle stress better than I did during tax season-- I've also made a HUGE decision to quit that job too. Yay!!

I haven't posted much on MFP but feel free to add me if you'd like. I'd love the extra accountability!

Hi all. I was sleeved in February 2016. I lost about 75 lbs initially and have put on 15 lbs recently. I have been exercising 3-4 days a week for the past several months and haven't noticed a change. I recently decided to try a keto approach, have increased my water intake and increased my exercise time from 30 min to 45 min each time. Is anyone else doing keto? The problem I have comes with the amount I am able to eat. While that amount increased since the time of my surgery, I still can't eat a lot, which results in being warned by MFP that I'm not eating enough. I physically can't eat more. Is there a way to work with the setting that will allow for lower calories?

Hey ladies!! I'm prepping for sleeve surgery! No date yet, but the goal is to have to surgery before of the year. I'm about 3 months into my supervised weight loss and I've lost 30 pounds so far. Feel free to add me!

Hello, had the sleeve done on Dec 21, 2017 about 8 months ago. I have lost at total of 73lbs but have hit a MAJOR stall. Can't seem to make the scale move anymore. So I decided to go back and track everything and add exercise to the mix and see if that helps the scale move again. Surgery was the best decision I have done for myself, since I also have PCOS and hypothyroidism. Add me if you'd like.
