Well it is almost 3 months after the gastric Sleeve surgery , I am DOWN 47 lbs. I have not done any exercising YET , this is just for the food consumption that I have been very carefully watching, I have cut all bread, pasts, fried food,and beef all or those sit very "heavy " in my stomach. Coffee also took a while to get used to again . Tea sits well. I will start doing some low impact exercises. I have done from 244 lbs to 197lbs. I have dropped from 1 20 in jeans to a size 14. Some weeks I only see a 1lb drop, DO NOT get frustrated , it still down. I weigh myself ONCE a WEEK only DO NOT weigh daily after the 1st 2-3 weeks you just drive yourself crazy . Good luck, WE got this
