Had my 8 week follow up

Sleeved in 2016
So I went yesterday for my 8 week follow up. Nutritionist and PA said that I was doing great. I have lost 56lbs since 1st week of August and 38lbs since surgery. I have been going to gym 4-5 days a week and doing 30 mins on treadmill and 15 mins working on my arms which are already so saggy. I have not for one minute regretted this surgery. I have gone from being winded just getting out of tub to feeling more energy than I have had in years. Here is an updated side by side. One on left is before surgery and on right is tonight. I see a difference in my face, feet but I have a harder time seeing in midsection.

You're doing great! I can definitely see a difference. Sometimes I look in the mirror and still the 240 me rather than the new 184 me. I guess sometimes either my mind or the mirror are playing tricks on me. Lol. Keep pushing. As long as the numbers on the scale keep going down you can be sure you're making progress. Best wishes!

One month out

Sleeved in 2016
So it has been 1 month since surgery. I have lost a total of 43lbs. I have been walking on treadmill for 30 mins 5 times a week. Protein and water intake have been no issue. I still feel full just tired of eating the same things over and over. Really want a salad.

Congratulations on your weight loss so far! 43lbs is amazing! It'd be good to see an updated photo.

I find that I can not eat salad! Well I can but I get full so quickly and then feel hungry soon after! It just doesn't satisfy me
