I am a new member of the group and want to thank you for the advice. Just learning about the program and will be seeing a surgeon on February 14. I am so tired of taking my medications and insulin and hoping in the long run, after losing weight, that I will be able to get off most of them. I have a problem with degenerative disc disease in my lower back and hoping I will lose enough weight to help relieve the pain in my hips and knees.

Hi I had sleeve maybe 11-12 years ago …. Best thing I ever did ….i feel for me most important thing was no soda still now no soda no carbonated beverages, nothing that stretches the stomach….if I have one bite left and I feel full I throw it away , I maintain my weight between 148-153 I go in between those numbers …. I eat heart healthy so I don’t have to take cholesterol med … I was pre diabetic now my numbers within normal range….helps many things …. The one thing has not helped is my degenerative bone disease…but it has helped me able to treat it with exercise and stretching…..
you will do well as long as you listen to your dr. And your body ..and just move ….feb 14 think of it as you reinventing yourself…
