Good luck. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Congrats

I've told everyone that asked me how I'm losing weight. Everyone has been positive so far. When people ask why I had the surgery or could you have just gone on a regular diet, I tell them I have and that I would lose weight but then put it back on. I tell them I was digging my grave with a spoon. My weight was going to kill me. So if I cheated, I cheated an early death!

Congrats

Stampinqueen7, I was sleeve November 5th by Dr. Treen. Surgery went great , recovery great. I feel great played basketball last night. Michelle and the rest of the staff are very helpful.

I live in Marrero.

Sleeved November 5 th none for me

Everything fell into place and it only took 3 months

Week 3 for me.

Two one a day vitamins. One b 50.

I'm in Hw 281 DOS 249 Cw 229 Goal 12/1/13 -199.0

Yeah Butterthebean I already have decided I need to get a camelback. I need to really do more pre ride hydration.I'm hoping the surgery has already helped with some cramp issues. I've had no cramps since surgery, I normally get cramps somewhere everyday.see dr today hopefully he lets me get on my bike.

250 day of surgery, 233 today. Finally got rid of the gout and will start walking again today. No pain, no problem with food or drink. Start on soft food tomorrow, after 2 week check up with dr.

I have the same concerns. More from a hydration issue. In April me and my brother biked across Louisiana. 350 miles in 4 days. I do cramp alot and drink plenty liquids. So now that I'm 2weeks post op I can't wait to get on my bike again. But I'm very nervous about food and water intake.

Sleeved on the 5th. Feel great no problem drinking, getting my liquids and protein in.never hungry (hope that stays). Been in the woods hunting with my 12 year old for the past 3 days. Life is good!

Congrats

I'm nine days post op. I have a bad case of gout. My surgeon allows me to take pain meds but no anti-inflamatory meds. How do you handle gout. I can't walk and want to exercise as much as possible.

Doing great. Sleeve on the 5th. No pain. Probably doing too much. As I type this I'm in the woods hunting.

Good luck

Doing so much better than I thought. Walked a mile today. Can have protein shake again. Just a little sore.

I also had my surgery yesterday. I was nervous the day before. I was released at 1 pm stopped at Wal-Mart on the way home. Of all three operations I've had in the past, this was by far has been the easiest. I've not had any pain medicine. The other I needed the meds. You wii be fine. Good luck

Good luck kim

Dr treen did an awesome job. Starting weight was 278, day of surgery 249. I just wish he would let me have some Water or ice. Still no pain meds...

How are the November 5th people make out? I am blessed that I'm in very little pain. Looking forward to the losing!

Chike choclate , with sugarfree syrups. Mik with coconut syrup, taste like almonf joy. To me it is favorite
