December 2011 sleevers how are we doing???
Weight is still coming off at a decent rate. I am pleased with my weight loss and am really looking forward to the "century" mark! I count my weight loss since my "surgery date" weight. Is that how everyone is calculating their weight loss total? Otherwise I've lost 117 pounds since starting my pre-op diet a few weeks prior to surgery.

Rolling along still. I am struggling with stress eating, food choices, and exercise. It is a life thing and hopefully things will even out in a few weeks.
A month ago my husband was laid off from his job (i'm a sahm). We cut our lease a month short where we were living, asked the people renting our house to move out, found that the house we are moving into was in very bad condition. I had to give up my gym membership. I've spent all my time packing, doing home renovation, moving, etc. It has been very stressful. We have already spent over $5K and I've worked my tail off. The place is still not done...major plumbing problems that could run into the thousands, and we haven't tackled the kitchen at all yet. This isn't happy creating a dream home reno, it is trashed, dirty house repair.
Through it all I have been thankful for my sleeve to help me at least eat less crap, the weight loss for my increased mobility, and the awesome muscles I've built at the gym. I love having muscles. I lugged two 89 pound toilets into that house by myself.

Hello!
I was sleeved 12/12/11!
I am down over 100 pounds but not sure on exact amount. I have been in and out of the hospital for the last week and a half (None VSG issues... will wait for another post because its a LONG story!) and have not weighed in.
Besides my other medical issues I am doing great! Still working on getting enough protein and fluid in but I am at about 60-70 grams of protein and about 50-60 oz of water.
I have about 60 pounds to go to get to my personal goal!
