I'm in Weight before surg-254 Date of surgery- 5/23/12 Current weight-198 Goal weight-185 Good luck all we can do this!

Hi, I'm 2 1/2 weeks out and have. 10 month old that weighs 23 lbs I only lasted two weeks w/out lifting her (couldn't take it she needed/wanted her mommy). That being said I only carried her wouldn't walk with her. Now at almost 3 weeks I'm slowly walking w/her but just like from crib to my bed and we are both happy

Wow what a difference in just 6 weeks congrats you look great!

Congrats you are looking fab!

Just had my sleeve 5/23 and I was feeling the same as you right before my surgery. I feel good just got released today. I have to say the pain is much more tolerable than the pain from a csection. I'm just sore and still have some gas. As far as eating I'm on full liquids have been able to sip all day. Thank God do not feel hungry. Hoping the rest is smooth sailing. Good luck and wishing you a smooth and speedy recovery.

You look great keep rocking that sleeve! BTW how much have you lost?

Congrats and may you continue to stay healthy!

Congrats you look great!

12 hrs post op feeling good gas is annoying but not too bad have to admit that I have been in and out of sleep all day. I just took a walk around the flr and it wasn't too bad hoping I wake up tomorrow and gas will be miraculously gone!

Caity thank you and Irishmama I check in tomorrow too at 730a my surgery will be at 930a wil try to post here as soon as I am able to still not packed and feeling nervous!

Thanks for the heads up my surgery is Wednesday I just sent my surgeon's assistant an email to find out if they provide one or if I should buy one!

Congrats shelly glad to hear you are feeling better! My surgery is Wednesday looking forward to joining you on the loser's bench!

Congratulations and keeping you in my prayers!

Good luck!

I know exactly how you feel my surgery is on May 23rd and I go through my moments of saying that I should just back out but I know I'm doing this for my health so I just pray on it....Good Luck Keep positive thoughts and please let us know how you are doing post-op!

Good luck prayers are being sent your way!

So I started my 3 week pre-op diet high protein low carb diet and did good for 1 week.....I'm currently on vacation at Disney and have lost my way oh my! Need help to lose at least 10 lbs in 5 days? Do you think if I do 2 protein shakes and 1 salad with let's say chicken I should be ok? Or do you have any other suggestions? HELPPPPP!

Good luck!

Hi ladies I'm having my sleeve done on May 23rd also I'm so nervous it's all so real now just started my pre-op diet today...curious do any of you have to follow a pe-op diet if so for how long?

My sleeve date is 5/23 at Lawrence Hospital in Bronxville very excited & nervous!

Hiii so you will be the week before me pls keep us posted on your progress and good luck. Wow stop exercising and your chances of gaining weight increases that makes sense but maybe instead of stoping all together I can just cut it down to a few days a week (that is of course when I do start lol) thanks

Can't believe my date is finally set so scared but also so ready to get healthy.....hoping I come through good and no complications praying a lot. I have two small children and a wonderful hubby that need me to be healthy. I'm 5' 3 weigh 248 looking to be about 175....anybody else getting sleeved in May what are your stats? Is it possible to slow down you weight loss or do you just have to wait until it stops on its own? I know I sound crazy but I'm Latin and i've never been thin so while I do want to lose weight I don't want to be stick thin I think I would be fine between 170 and 175 so that is why I ask that question....thanks in advance can't wait to be on the loser's bench!
