 Hi all - Just checking in on with my fellow August sleevers.  To date, I have lost 49 lbs., whi*****ludes the two week liquid diet.  I feel blessed, but have such a long way to go.  This definitely wasn't an 'easy fix'.  I still fight food urges everyday, but am happy with my choice.

I was sleeved on August 23rd and have lost 26 lbs since the day of my surgery.  I agree that this is not an "easy fix" but I knew it wouldn't be.  Some days I have trouble getting in all the protein I need and all the water.  Every day is a learning process and I didn't gain this weight overnight and I know it's going to take time lose it.  I am so happy that I did have the surgery and can't wait until I am at goal.

I'm an 8/29 sleever.  I've lost 38.4 lbs and that includes my 1 week pre-op loss.  Soo glad I did this!

I was sleeved 9/1.  I'm doing fine, I guess.  I'm honestly having a hard time eating very much.  I have very little appetite, and even less room in my sleeve.  Definitely having a hard time getting in enough protein, though I'm working at it every day.  I'd honestly be just as happy not to eat at all.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

I was sleeved August 16th. To date, I am down 48 lbs (including 15 lb pre surgery weightloss--I always include the pre weight loss because I would not have lost it had I not had surgery!!!) Not getting the protein in and still struggle with the water especially now that it is getting cold out! Still glad I did it!

hi :-) i was sleeved on august 22nd. i have lost 55 pounds (including 15 i lost on 2 week preop diet). so 40lbs lost in 8 weeks :-) its def NOT an easy way out. i see myself tempted by the same things that got me into the situation i was in before surgery. but i thank god every day that i now have this tool. without it, id probably be 15lbs heavier instead of 55lbs lighter :-) congrats on the weight loss and keep up the good work!
starting weight: 341, goal weight: 150, 1st goal: 250, 2nd goal: 199, final goal: 150
