I'm only two weeks today, i would so do it again!

I was sleeved May 10th, preop was 7 lbs, 14 lbs since surgery! 21 total! I love this forum everyone is so much help!

Do you need a volunteer? I know it sounds crazy but there was a teacher on the tv show "Glee" that was way phobic of others. I know i'm not a teenager, but i loved that show. It took the right person to give her the time that she needed and when she felt comfortable she would let him know the time. They learned to love, kiss, hug and really connected. I know its a tv show, but i really love fairytale endings. (i'm waiting on my knight in shining armer) maybe its an idea to watch a few of the episodes. Ive never experienced that problem, I wish you the best!

WOW, so true!!!! thanks for sharing!

I drove the following day after being released from the hospital. My surgeon said as long as i wasn't taking pain pills! I am 12 days post-op, day two back at work! I get tired easily. But i work with the best people!

I had to meet with a therapist pre-op. Maybe that could help. We talked about replacing addictions with others, drugs, sex, shopping etc.... Those are diseases just like being over weight. Good luck to you. I was always told don't let anyone take your joy! They can only take it if you give it to them! (that's where my screen name came from allMYjoy)

Thank you KImmie! Everyone is so wonderful here! Thanks for the quick reply, i was pondering on finishing my "lunch" or not! thanks again!

I am 12 Days post-op. Just starting on "smushy" foods. After the first two bites i feel a " girggle" in my throat. Is this normal? eating to much to fast? I am so trying to do this right. This group is such a inspiration!

I tried OA about two years ago. Was not impressed, it was a bunch of skinny people talking, not helping with the addiction part of it! It doesnt hurt to try, checkout your local hospital and organizations they often offer support groups!

Have you guys tried the camelback water bottles? Make a huge difference. You have to bite the valve to get the liquid out so it's not like using a straw! I was sleeved may10 as well! Post op was yesterday I'm averaging a pound a day!

My surgery was the 10th. I feel so good, went to the gym today! It does get so much easier!

Im 37, single no kids. I was sleeved may 10th! I was like oh no what have I done? Today is the 13th not so bad! Figuring out how to get so much fluid in is the hard part. Before I would have A whole 2 litter with in hours and ready for more. My tummy is so full (which is a good thing). I pray the hard part is done. Now just worry about eating enough my how time changes! I have a vacation planned for September last year it was those pics that made me decide it was time to do something! Can't wait to show last year and this year pics!

My surgery is this Thursday! Im excited!!! I know i'm worth this! Doing it for me, it will all take care of its self! Just keep in mind how fantabulous you will feel in 6 months!

My surgery is in less than 48 hours!! May 10th, i will let you know!!!
