Hello all! I got the gastric sleeve on September 30, 2013, and now I'm just learning to readjust to everything ^_^

    Hello! I had mine 8/30/13 - it has been a little tough to get the hang of it (for me) but I am chugging along. Nice to see you!

    You'll find a very supportive community on MFP... well, if you stick with the WLS groups! Feel free to friend me and I'm always glad to help! Still on my journey - down almost 50# with another 30 or so to go! Best thing I ever did! Off all meds, and feeling great. Hang in there and enjoy the journey!

    Welcome to the club. I was sleeved 5/28 and found the first few weeks really hard, the first couple of months hard, and now pretty easy. By that I mean knowing what to eat and how much. Fluids are SOOOO much easier too. The cravings fight is still hard every day...I love sweets and even dream about them, but I stay away.

    This is a really supportive and helpful group, and it's nice to be "friends" with other sleevers.

    Welcome to the group! It gets so much easier after the first couple months. Just remember to be mindful of your eating habits and you will do great.
