I hope to be able to shop and wear what ever I want and feel good doing it.

I had my first surgery for the lap band on May 17 2012 I lost for sure. I was down to about 210 or so. I then had a slip and opted to have the second surgery to go to the sleeve. Which I had on Dec 16 and now I'm down to 196. I have longed to see the scale below

I was a band to sleeve on 12/13/13 and I feel pretty good. I have been out shopping and driving since about Tuesday. I started mushy food on Thursday and that was great. I have been getting in most of my Water and Protein.< /p>

I can't believe how much this surgery has changed my weight loss. I am very excited to move forward.

I would say .... Change how you are thinking about what you have done (surgery). Try to think positive thoughts ...Calm yourself down and go slow..My Dr. prescribed me Omerprazole 20mg for that gurgling feeling. Call your Dr. I hope you feel better soon...Just keep thinking about how good you will feel a month from now... Good luck to you!

Thanks so much! I am one of the new hosts here, I had my surgery in 2010 and indeed it was successful. This is one of three forum areas that I oversee along with other vets. I could really use the prayer for another year. I am already several years past where my cancer docs predicted I would die. I am as healthy as I was in my 20's now, God's grace and this surgery has brought me back from the brink.

Greeting and best wishes to all December sleevers!
I am one of the hosts on this forum and I have a request.
December is my birthday, 65 this month.
Give me the gift of having a very successful surgery!

OMG freezing!! But then I live in Canada and we're having a bit of a cold spell here. -18 Celsius w wind chill -28.
Hands and feet are never warm! But on the bright side still off of work so who cares what the weather is like outside? Haha

Glad your doing better. You will get there on the protein soon it takes time. I was sleeved on the 13 th and I still have trouble getting in enought protein too. It is getting better everyday. The shakes have been making me sick too. I found I had to try different types. I found yogurt was the best thing to feel better.

I was sleeved 12/10 (and then more surgery 12/15 for internal bleeding) and doing ok now. Having difficulty getting in protein, as the shakes make me gag. I'm probably only getting 15 grams of protein a day now, which is not good. Looking forward to mushy stage next week.

I hope to be able to shop and wear what ever I want and feel good doing it.

Leaving for the hospital in 45 min. Wish me luck! And good luck to all the other 17th sleevers.

Today is the day!! I will be having surgery at Lenox Hill at 730am with Dr. Edward Yatco. Still excited. Very anxious. And ready to do this!! I will touch back with you guys when I return home (I don't have a smartphone to be able to update. (Boo :c)
Blessings and prayers to everyone else who is having their surgery today as well. And many, many thanks to those praying and supporting us!!

I am not sure what I will wear but since my loss I have not been asked to play Santa.

So surgery was yesterday Friday the 13. Surgery went really well he took my lapband out and did the sleeve. I am not using as much pain meds today compared to yesterday. I have been up and walking laps around the floor and even went downstairs to see my children last night. Breathing is a little hard at times but they have me on oxygen. I have not drank anything since Thursday night should get ice chips and Water this morning excited it went will and can't wait to get home.

So I CLEARLY was BORED , and added up all of us December Sleevers and there is 206!!! WOW ...

Prayers for all new Sleevers today. God speed for an excellent healing
