I had my surgery done on Aug 1st. And since then I have craved Red Bull energy drinks. Before the surgery I did drink energy drinks but now it seems like I almost have to have it. Did any of y'all have any crazy cravings after surgery?

Yeah this is going to be my third shoulder surgery, but first on my left shoulder. Recovery is rough and I've gained a great deal of weight after each previous one. I am happy that I got sleeved before this one.

Ten weeks after surgery and I am down 55 pounds. I am finally under 300 pounds and couldn't be happier. I am trying to drop as much as I can before next week, because I'll be having a pretty major shoulder surgery on the 17th. I won't be able to do the gym (even cardio) for at least two weeks. Once I have the surgery I will be out of work for a minimum of 5 months.

Hello sleevers, I finally had my surgery on 8/1. My weight the night before surgery was 352 pounds and as off today I am 324 pounds. Last week was a little rough for me with cravings and just wanting solid foods. I am now cleared to start doing cardio so soon my girlfriend (who was sleeved in jan) and i will be starting the gym together. Here is too a new life!

Dr. Redmann will be doing mine soon. How is your progress so far?

i will certainly try my best to keep my progress posted. my girlfriend had the surgery in jan and she has lost about 60 pounds and thats with out exercise.

Next Wednesday I am meeting with my Dr. to sign my consent forms for the surgery! My patient advocate said that usually surgery is two or three weeks after a patient signs. So excited to start my new journey!!

I'm from jefferson parish. should be having my surgery with in a month or so. have to get a dr release from my general before i can have it. dr apt is wed then everything should be a go.
