Thanks! It's still a work in progress, but I try to put my fork down in between bites and really pay attention to chewing well. I haven't been measuring like I should, but I would say I can eat about 4-5 ounces or so.

More good news!
My surgeon and specialist who found my tumor have decided that I can still get my SLEEVE! Thanks everyone. I meet with oncologist next week and also will be swallowing the camera pill! Praying my intestines are tumor free!!
Thanks sleevers!! Xoxoxo xox

Omar use to work under Trish...he is probably using the same forms Trish used! Sad... I just had surgery with Dr. Ponce and he is awesome. His record is clean and he loves what he does. Trish also is a blessing. She was there for me through the entire journey. From the time I arrived to even today checking on me! Without her we Would have been lost! Choose carefully!

Took me a while to obtain any kind of energy level. You got to give it a bit of time. The one thing you need with this kind of surgery is patience. I learned the hard way..LOL

It DOES get better, and very quickly usually. Are you taking vitamins yet? I started taking chewables as soon as I got home from the hospital and have been super high energy ever since. I don't know if the vitamins are the source of it, or if I psyched myself into that energy level, but it's there and I'm thrilled!!

Took me a week before I didn't feel exhausted walking 3-4 blocks. Took me about 2 weeks to be able to get through a busy day of school without feeling like I was gonna pass out at the end. After 2 weeks, it was pretty much back to normal.

it gets better day by day...I have a lot of energy 6 weeks out, but at two weeks out, I thought I was better than I was and overdid it a couple of times...take it slow and easy.

Yes, it's very normal to have these doubts. But, they will clear up very quickly once you're back on solid foods. Just take deep breaths and hold on. It will get better in a hurry!

Make room on the losers bench, we've been sleeeeved!

Thanks gals, I have been sleeved! Very nauseous but ok. I don't regret it one bit! Dr. Ponce and his team are amazing, not to mention Trish and all the nurses and staff!

Dr. Ponce and Trish are amazing and i loved my whole surgical experience!! you will too!!
