Down 50 lbs...sure it's slow... but my water intake sucks...and my skin is holding up okay...my boobs are gone currently I'm wearing a c cup????...i have lots of excess skin on my boobs...but I would rather have this than the excess weight. So far so good. I haven't had any problems. I love the quest protein bars and carry them with me. I got burned out on premier protein...I feel amazing. Current weight is 168.4 lbs. attached is the pic of my boobies...horrible.

Let see....well I'm freezing. I can't drink water cause I'm so damn cold. I started drinking coffee with sugar, my protein intake is very low. My hair is thinning out. I'm currently at 180lbs so not bad I'm sure I could've lost more but I'm not doing my part.

Hi, I had the gastric sleeve with Dr Garcia Govea in Tijuana, Mexico on July 15, 2016 weighed 189 lbs. Now i weight 132, my goal weight is 120. I started getting really cold about 1 month ago. Even after I exercise I get cold. I was told by my doctor that is excessive fat loss (the extra pad of fat is gone to insulate you) but in time is should get better, but is worth to be cold

I'm doing great! My energy is up. What can I say besides that I'm always cold. I did go to the doctor on Friday and had labs done waiting on results. I've had no problems, besides that when I drink liquids my stomach makes lots of noise and I let out air. After I eat I get the hiccups. Almost like I've been drinking..lol with me being cold my liquid intake has been low.when I do drink it's been coffee or a warm Premier protein Shake. My current weight is 185.2Lbs. Yes I'm Happy with the progress!!!!

Hi jocy81!!! I am so happy for you!
I've been feeling cold a lot too. Last night I used a heating pad under my bed sheets to keep warm. Nevertheless, I feel good. I've been wearing clothes I haven't worn in a while; I'm down 50 pounds; and bought a ball gown for a Galla next month.
I can't thank you enough for the support you gave me. Take care and let's keep in touch.
