 In two months I have managed to drop 30 pounds.  Never in my life have I lost this much weight in such a short period of time.  Well...there was one time...but I was SO miserable during those couple of months- working out 2-3 hours every day (not missing a single day)...cutting out all sugar!!!  Not to mention, I gained it all back and then some!  Anywho.  I am LOVING my sleeve!!!  I'm also loving that people are noticing the weight loss.  Yes...I did hit the dreaded stall.  Yes.  I did have a bad day (or two...but never 3).  Just go back to the basics/ following the doctor's plan...and it works...the weight will come off!  
Oh!  And always remember...you get what you put into this AND patience patience patience!  We didn't gain all this weight overnight, it will take some time.  Stalls are normal.  Temptation is everywhere but if you want it bad enough, you'll fight it...and if you fall for temptation...well start over the next second...not the next day (or week).

 Congratulations!  30 pounds is great.  Keep up the good work! 

I am having surgery Tuesday (3 more days!)  I look foward towards ending my bad habits, taking control and being patient!

We are surgery twins, and I am loving it also, at 8 week mark I was down 47 pounds! I get so excited every week I get on the scale and I love going to support groups because they give me that much more motivation!

Love my sleeve!!!  I tried posting pic but didn't know how...so it's on my profile page.  The only regret is that I didn't get it done sooner!  :)
