  1. Thank you!!! I will do another update soon. I just need a couple of days for this discomfort to subside. Little Bits
  2. Thanks everyone! This is disgusting. On another note, I made my first Protein shake. It could be worse...lol. I hope that I figure this thing out soon. Little Bits
  3. Thanks Dorrie! Little Bits
  4. Thanks, I have diabetes. So, I'm not sure if that has something to do with it or not. I'll look into it...thanks again! Little Bits
  5. Nice Eric! The drain was a piece of work. It literally took my my breath away. I was NOT happy. Anyway, my biggest obstacle now is getting rid of this metal mouth taste. It sucks!!! Little Bits
  6. Yes, that is obsessed...lol! Good luck on your journey & keep us posted. Little Bits
  7. Lol...that's what I am going to try to avoid. I don't know if I will be successful, but I will try. Sn: I lost 10.5 lbs so far. I didn't really follow the plan for the pre-op diet; so, I'm proud of myself! Little Bits
  8. Good morning everyone! I was wondering approximately how long this metal taste lasts. Everything tastes disgusting, including these nasty Vitamins. Thanks in advance! Little Bits
  9. Thanks girl! Yes, I'm definitely going to do weigh-ins. I'm not sure if I want to be a slave fo the scale though. I know me & I will become obsessed with checking my weight. I'm thinking monthly (or even bi-weekly). Now, keep in mind that I am saying that now but I probably won't be able to stay off of that scale. Lol Little Bits
  10. I'm going home today...yay!!! Little Bits
  11. Thanks, I'll keep you posted! Little Bits

  13. Thanks! I'll keep you posted! Little Bits
  14. Chuckles, Actually, I feel fine. I haven't had much to eat...just a little Jello here & there. I have been sipping & walking. The only real pain that I have is from the drain. It's really not too bad though. Little Bits

  17. Thanks MzPecanBrown! Little Bits
  18. Congrats to everyone who is newly sleeved. To all who will be sleeved soon, good luck!!! xoxo Little Bits
  19. Thanks everyone! Storm, there is plenty of room on the loser's bench. I'll save you a seat right beside me! Take care! Little Bits
  20. Littlemiss, everything went well. I haven't had too many problems. My blood sugar levels have been really good over the past few days & I'm not even on meds...yay! I have had a few complications, but nothing to worry about too much... My potassium levels were down & my white blood cells count was/is elevated. They gave me meds for the potassium issue, but they haven't done much for the white blood cell problem. Also, my blood levels dropped this morning but I'm anemic...so that's not uncommon. Anyway, I'm doing great! The only physical pain that I feel is coming from the incision with the drain. I will feel much better when that is removed. All in all, I can't complain! The hospital staff is fabulous!!! I'm just ready to go home. I have to repeat my labs at noon, and if all is well I can go home...yay!!! Although, I am not in a rush. I want everything to be on point before I leave. Please overlook any grammatical errors. I just took my pain medication. Take care & thanks for checking on me. Little Bits
  21. Thanks everyone! Little Bits
