I felt that way, had my surgery june 4th. I was so tired people at work would comment on it. That I looked about ready to faint. Had the water nausea too. what went down came back up. Once your body adjusts and you keep getting the vitamins in and the protein It will pass and you will begin to feel much better.

Good luck and get ready to enjoy the rest of your life!!

That is the ultimate success story!! congratulations!!

I suggest taking a picture. I think you will be able to see how you really look in it as opposed to the mirror. It's hard to get over the sizes issue.

I had gas pains did my walking and every day I felt 50% better each day. within a week I was outside trimming the rose bushes.

I did from day one , my dr gave me pills for nausea. it will go away.

I saw my doctor on May 9th and had surgery June 4th. It was all about the open surgery dates. He had that date and then the end of June open. I counldn't wait any longer.

I bet that was the best scale victory you have had yet.. congratulations!! you deserve it.

What a horrible thing to go through. I can totally understand your feelings regarding the diet and the next surgery. have you googled what they said happened to find answers you want? The 30th isn't too far away try and stay on the diet it can only help you.

17 in the hospital but they came off in about a week

that's exciting news congratulations!! to you both ; )

are you happy where you are? are you maintaining or still losing?

I decided i wanted to get surgery a year ago. My Insurance had me take the options classes. After every class I decided I wasn't going to do it. then I would change my mind and be all for it. It was a roller coaster ride from hell, but I decided that living the way I was wasn't living and I needed to do this for me. I was still nervous when I was in the pre-op room. If you aren't nervous you should be it's major surgery. Just know everything will comeout right and you will be on the road to your new and exciting life.

Isn't it amazing how it just falls off? congratulations and glad you are doing so well.

I bought a Tweezie a few years back and love it. it's battery powered and plucks the hairs as you go over them.

Okay the waiting has got to be hard. good luck. and see you on the other side.

AMAZING!!! You will do awesome with the sleeve.

I was at a good weight until a car accident that left me unable to walk for six years due to back injuries. I raised two daughters from bed with them coming in after school to tell me how their day had gone. My only friend all those years was food. It took 13 years and three major surgeries along with about 150 minor procedures for me to be able to walk and lead a "normal" life again. That time I spent alone and although I never thought of myself as depressed I don't know what else you could have called it. A year ago I decided I needed to do something. I can't exercise because of my back. I needed to get the weight off. New insurance company at work and the sleeve was covered. it's been a month and a half and I can already feel the difference in my body and my mind.

I changed my mind abou tthe surgery so often nobody could keep up. I did do it and am happy I did, you will be too. No worries it's what you need to do.

Congratulations!!! welcome to the rest of your life.. it's going to be amazing.

I didn't have to have a psych evaluation..

CONGRATULATIONS!! welcome to the rest of your life..

In the classes the instructor said if you don't make the goal they wont cancel on you. I didn't reach that goal and still had the surgery. as long as they can see that you are trying.

Congratulations!! half way to go is half way done. Amazing.. : )

thank you, I've been walking a mile every day. can't do more than that due to back injury. It gets frustrating at times
