Hi! My name is Jess. I am not only new to the Group, but to being sleeved as well. My surgery date was 10/18/12. Thus far my weight loss has been slow (yeah, I know only three weeks out) - 12 pounds from pre-surgery weight - despite following my plan to a t - protein in, water in, multiviamins, blah blah. I talked to my dietician at my two week follow-up and she noted that I just might be a "slow" loser. :frown:
Anyhoo, I'm really excited about MFP for tracking and would love to start integrating more with the community! No more hiding in the house with my food.
Watch out world - here I come! :happy:

Congrats on your recent surgery! Don't be discouraged should your weight loss stall, even though you are following all of your doctor's guidelines. At week 3, my three week stall started. BUT... I was prepared for this since a lot of people seem to have stalls every so often. Just keep doing what you are supposed to do and it will start up again. 0

I had my surgery at Banner Gateway. Dr. Rob Schuster was my surgeon. Awesome program and wonderful surgeon. Would definitely recommend he and his staff. They have support programs (free) 3 times a month for both folks who are pre and post op in their program and to the public. Very well rounded.0
