Thanks for sharing your story Barbara. I love it when vets tell their stories, so they can help and inspire the newbies. I myself am 5 1/2 months out and I definitely can tell the difference in how much more I can eat from when I first had surgery. I still have about 50 or so pounds to lose before my one year surgerversary in Aug. Wish me luck!!!

Again Congratz and keep on keeping on!!! THE SLEEVE TOTALLY ROCKS :D :D :D .

Good luck and best wishes today on your surgery. God bless.

Deb

Congrats. Sounds like you guys are on your way.

Deb;)

Thanks for sharing your journey thus far. Yes, with GOD ARE THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Even the Chiefs going to the SUPER BOWL!!!! LOL:D .

Please keep us posted with your progress.

Oh.... Dennis that's great about the weight loss and the fact your are getting all of your fluids and protein in soooo early on. It must have taken me a good month to do that. Congrats.

I'm looking forward to your before and during pics.

WAY TO GO!!!!

Deb;)

As long as you continue to eat your protein you will lose the weight like you have never seen before.

Congrats. Keep up the good work!!!!

Best of luck to you and your mom. I look forward to your update.

Deb

Yes, go back to your surgeon's office. YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN SO MUCH PAIN YOU CAN NOT WALK. I had my surgery the same day as yours and I've been back to work for 2 and half weeks. Something does not sound right. You need to go get it check out PRONTO.

Deb

Glad to see you back. I am soooo glad I didn't have any gas pains. I brought my Gas -X strips to the hospital fully expecting to use them for the gas, but no gas pains came. Hopefully the gas pains are better for you now. Good luck as you continue your journey.

Deb

Wishing you the best. Hoping your days get better and better. God bless.

I'm sooo sorry things are not turning out as you hoped. Have you call your doctor about the pain because I don't think you should be in so much pain you can't walk. The sunken left side of your side, I have that too. I think it will be OK after it heals. Best wishes baby girl.

Girl... the time will fly by and before you know it you will sleeved and back on your way home. Best wishes and good luck. Your daughter is a cutie!!

Deb

Love it. Girl you are soooo funny.

Deb

Baby girl I'm sorry you are in soooo much pain. Hopefully you are feeling better now? I will keep you in my prayers. I see the surgeon tomorrow too for my first post-op appointment. Best wishes.

Deb

Good for you my dear!!

Welcome

WOW.That's my surgery date too!!!! We are going to be sleeve sisters. Good luck and best wishes little sister.

Deb

Great to hear your surgery went so well that the doc wished he had video taped it.

I hope you are feeling better today. They say each day gets better and better.

I'm glad to hear you have such a supportive and wonderful bf. That was sweet of him to take the whole week off. Kudos to him.

Please keep us updated with your progress sweetie. Take care.

Deb

Terri,your pics look like you lost more than 30 pounds. I had to do a double take. You look great. Keep it up!!!!

Donna, I'm glad it went soooo well for you. Girl...with that post op diet you'll be losing tons of weight in no time. Best wishes. Keep us posted :0)

We are all pulling for you. Stay strong!!!! I know when it's my time I'm gonna be scared sh*tless, but we know it is the best thing for us. Best wishes!!!!

How long do you have to do it for. Please keep us updated on your progress. Good luck.

Deb

Sawree. I can only imagine how hard it is for you. Maybe drink more water between dinner and bedtime or go for a walk. Just remember to keep telling yourself this so my liver can strink and my surgery is safer for me. That's what I'm going to tell myself when I'm on my pre-op diet.

Deb

Much success!!!

Sounds like you are on your way. Much luck on your journey!!! :thumbup:Please keep us updated.
