What's your secret. It will be a month for me Sept 6th. I'm down about 45 pounds which is great but I want your results lol.

I was sleeved Aug 6th and I'm down from 322 to 282. I'm excited.

I had a urine test. I quit for 5 days so I could pass. Be careful though...I ended up with a blood clot after surgery. My Dr required me to have a filter placed bc of my history with blood clots and that saved my life so please don't smoke.

Yes. I was like gatdamn. I'm just brushing and using listerine and chewing gum.

Take your Lortab, sip water, walk and sleep. When you wake up do it all over again.

My daughter woke me up with her laughter bc I was licking my lips and smacking in my sleep dreaming of food. And I've had a few food dreams...

Hey.. anyone else having problems getting water in..64 oz? I'm 10 days post op and have tried cold and room temperature, plain and crystal light. I'm literally forcing myself to sit here and drink this 16.9 oz bottle. I don't want to get dehydrated. Please help.

Is anyone working out? Or totally dependant on the sleeve?

I was instructed not to do protein shakes until day 8 post op.

It makes sense. I'm sorry you are going thru that. Def talk to someone...you don't want to backtrack to old problems.

Maybe u need to talk to someone bc obviously you have a poor self image. Don't let what others say bring you down. Losing 26 pounds in 1 month is good...that's almost a pound a day. Keep your eye on the end result and build your self esteem.

I just had surgery on Monday and have had abdominal surgeries before. It will hurt laying on your side but try it with your knees bent almost in a fetal position...it helps.

I had the same question but was afraid to ask...thanks!

I was sleeved on the 6th. Warm chicken broth went down well. Drinking room temp water...small sips. Jello made me queasy.

I was sleeved yesterday also. Are you going home today?
