My sleeve makes me happy, happy, happy!
I'm newly sleeved and have not lost much weight (it's been slow for me, in my opinion), but I can already tell that I'm getting healthier which is my main goal with this process. I don't require as much sleep and not near as cranky.

Welcome to the LWs. We love newbees. Congrats on your surgery.
I think the less we have to lose, the slower it is. Think about % of excess weight lost not overall pounds. If you lost like our heavier friends, 30 lbs the first month, you would be almost to goal, LOL. So keep on keeping on, learn new habits because you will need them once you go into maintenance.
