Hey! I had vertical sleeve gastrectomy on 12/18/12. I started my journey at 333 pounds, and today I weigh 284, so I have lost 50 pounds! I am looking for myfitnesspal community and others who are tracking their food and healthy eating so I can get ideas and be encouraged and motivated along my journey. :)

Thanks!
Jayme

    Congrats on your weightloss. I had this surgery on 11/28/12 and trying to use mfp to stay honest and find encouragement.

    Congrats on your weight loss! I have a couple of friends that have done the VSG and each have done extremely well. I think MFP will help you with your journey, its a great site to keep a daily track of your exercise and food diary. Lots of great support here as well. Keep up the good work!

    I have a friend that had that 12 months ago.

    Al she does now is snack on junk. She lost 35kilos and yes that is well and good but seems didnt learn a thing about food and the what she should be eating.

    Well done for learning and wanting to improve your diet.

    I believe this has given my friend a free card to eat crap and lose weight. In the end Im sure her health will suffer. To be skinny and unhealthy or be fit and active and enjoy life....
