4 months out and 80lbs lighter

Doing great.

Well its been 7 weeks since surgery and things are going great. No regrets at all. Starting weight 320 and today 271. So a total loss of 49lbs. I'm able to eat whatever I want just not much. Lol. I even drank a beer without any trouble. Hope everyone is doing well.

Good luck. You can do this

That's some bad stuff there. Lol

Just a little advice. Liquid iron tastes just like it says. Took my first sip and prob last. Lol

I'm on day six post op and I'm still having gas pains. Getting in all my liquids, protien and vitamins. Walk every day. Just wondering if anyone else went through this. Thanks

After you have the sleeve. Memory loss with the ghrelin loss

Ok. So does anyone have any info on ghrelin and if it causes memory loss. Read an article on here earlier and see where some ppl are saying it can cause memory loss. Just curious for info

Hello present and future sleevers. I have a question about beer. I don't drink everyday and never have bud I like to drink a beer every now and then. What's your thoughts on having a beer after surgery. Thanks

I'm scheduled for 8/14 also. Good luck

Went and did my pre op today. Everything went well and will be in surgery on the morning of the 14th. Nervous but excited

Just wondering if anyone else was told they didn't have to do a Pre op. my surgeon is at a center of excellence and told me I could eat up until midnight the night before surgery,. I just find it odd after seeing everyone doing the Pre op diets

How do I make this

Thanks everyone. I know I will continue to visit this site. Reading all of these success stories makes it better.

Thanks. I deal with anesthesia pretty well. Just a million questions I want the answer too. Lol. I just want to be able to live a normal life afterwards, I love hunting and fishing and anything outdoors and want to be able to continue without hesitations.

Thanks for replying. I'm not to nervous about going under it's the coming back. And I had surgery before and the surgeon said nothing about clots. No socks or anything about preventing them.

Hi. I'm scheduled for the sleeve on the 14th of august. Just wondering if anyone on here was worried about the anesthesia or blod clots after surgery.

Hello. I'm scheduled for surgery on August 14. Just wondering about life after surgery. Is it possible to build muscle after the weight loss?
