How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

11 months after Surgery
Hey Ladies,
I wanted to post an update. I'm just about 11 months away from my Surgiversary. I was sleeved July 14th, 2015. It was the day that truly changed my life. I went from no energy to FULL of energy. From size 8/20 to size 10/12. I am very proud of my accomplishment, yet I still have 20 lbs to go. Toward the end losing gets slower. I was even getting discouraged so I saw my Nutritionist today. Needless to say I'm doing the right things, but at times we just have to tweek our eating and exercising. Good luck to everyone. I've attached some pictures to help you see my progress. God is merciful and good! I've got a better outlook on life now.

I am happier than ever. Don't always watch the scale. Yes it helps but inches is also a big factor. HW- 256 CW - 189 GW- 165
I am barely 25 lbs away from my goal weight and I can get wrapped up in #'s. But when I realize how good I feel, how happy I am right my progress and hoe my confidence has increased. I realize inches and the way my clothes fit matters the most.
Please Please Please EXERCISE. You don't want to lose muscle mass. Then you will look really saggy. I've done great & my Dr was surprised because I've only lost 1lbs of muscle. That's amazing. So please don't sit and just wait for the weight to come off. Some of it will but muscle burns more fat. So develop those muscles by walking, lifting. Zumba, T25 and many other workout routines. Those are just some that I did & I'm very happy with my progress. Don't overindulge if your new tummy is like mine. I can eat most things now & not get sick or nauseated. Some things still get me quesey and I definitely know when I'm full. So just be careful & make good food choices. Less sugar less carbs, more protein more fruits n veggies.
Best wishes to everyone.
