Thx to everyone for sharing. I was sleeved on 8/29, gained 6 pounds after surgery, and have been stuck in some depression. Reading your comments has given me perspective and lifted my mood.

Thx for the posts and perspective, everyone. :-)

I was sleeved 8/29 and feel the same way. I've read that it's common. It sure beats being hot and sweaty!

I was sleeved on August 29...gained six pounds in the hospital in three days, and I'm only down one pound...that makes me five pounds heavier than before the sleeve. I'm very discouraged.

I've been sleeved! Came home today. I'm already off blood pressure and insulin-regulating medications! Who knew chicken bouillon could taste so yummy?!

I'm realizing how much I eat in the evenings when Hubby is at work. But I am sticking to my protein shakes. Lord, help me!

Today I started my liquid pre-op diet in preparation for surgery on Wednesday morning. It's almost here!

Just went to Macys to get a swimming suit at their clearance sale. So bummed to discover that they don't even carry plus-size swim suits...size 16 is their top size. I cannot wait to get my sleeve...August 29...and end this obesity frustration.

Thanks! :-)

I'm new...and clueless! What's NSV?

Amazing! You're doing great!

Thank you for sharing your inspirational story. I'm 25 days away from my sleeve...I want to follow along in your shoes! Congratulations!

4 Weeks from today!

Thx so much!

I use the Android app and can't figure out how to add a profile picture. Anyone know how?
