in Introduce Yourself
I just had mine on 10/21/10 and have had no problems so far. I think this is going to be one of the best decisions of my life. Am finding MFP to be a great tool in keeping up with food, nutrients, exercise, etc. It's a great community.

Would like to meet up with other "Sleevers" to see how you're doing. Support can really help through any weight loss program, especially some of the surgical options.

Just "Friend Me"! We'll get through it together.

    HI! I just joined up with MFP and did a forum search looking for other VSG'ers and came across your post. So I wanted to say HI! I'm was sleeved 9/21/10, so tomorrow is my 5 month surgiversary! I don't regret it at all and am loving it. The loss is starting to slow but I can't complain....-90lbs in that time is a good accomplishment! I like MFP so much better then another site I was logging food/exercise at. Hope you are still loving your sleeve! :o)

    Hi everyone!

    I was sleeved last Tuesday, August 23rd! I'm looking for a few friends so we can motivate each other along the way. :)

    (Once I get past this darned liquid diet phase, I'll be logging my food once again! lol.)

    Cheers!
