You look great! Congrats on your success!

I was sleeved on 8/23/12 and have had no complications. I am so glad that I had this surgery because it has already made such a difference in how I look and feel.

Dr Westmoreland is great and I have had a wonderful experience. I also was very pleased with my experience in the shelbyville hospital. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Just hang in there with the pre-op diet your surgery day will be here before you know it. I started at 240 and am currently 198.

Wow you look great! Congrats!!

I'm in! I was sleeved on 8/23. Highest weight was 240 and current weight is 203. I would like to be 180 by New Year's Day...which is also my birthday!

Sorry about your separation...I know it will be difficult going through this alone. Will be praying for an easy surgery and a quick recovery for you!

Congrats on your progress that's awesome! I was sleeved on 8/23. I started at 240 and I am down to 203 now. I absolutely love my sleeve!

Congratulations on your success! I love your story! I'm also glad that you found your inner strength and know that you can take control of your life and that you deserve better!

Tennessee!

3 days for me too!!!

You look great! Congrats on your progress!

Congratulations...that's about how I felt. I was sleeved a week ago and I feel really good now. So excited that tomorrow I get to begin my soft foods!

I am listening to my surgeon and following his plan. I do love to read everything on here though just to get ideas and see what everyone else is doing and what their results have been.

So glad that your surgery went well. I too had the nausea the first day or two. I am almost a week out and I feel great. Just a little pain on the right side - which is where the biggest incision is - but its not too bad. I am still on liquids but it doesn't take too much to fill me up! Good luck on your recovery - you should feel better and better each day!

I know how you feel - I get to start soft foods on Thursday and I can't wait!!

You look great! Congratulations!

Praying for you today! I felt all those same emotions - but I am glad that I got it done. I am only 5 days post op and I feel good...pain and nausea is pretty much gone. Can't get in much fluid yet but its getting easier each day.

I just had my surgery on 8/23 and I've been dealing with the nausea too. It is getting better and I am slowing figuring out what my sleeve can tolerate. I haven't any trouble with any gas pain though - I'm thankful for that. Good luck on the rest of your recovery!

Hey everyone - i had surgery Thursday morning and so far so good. Not too much pain. I have had some nausea but that is getting better. I can't eat very much - maybe about a teaspoon or two at a time. I've been sleeping a lot...and just resting if I'm not asleep. My doc is Dr. Westmoreland - he is wonderful!

Great job and very inspiring! I am getting sleeved tomorrow!

Hi Lisa - I am new here also. I am scheduled for my surgery on 8/23. I can't wait to make this change in my life because I am also 100 lbs. overweight. I have two beautiful daughters and a wonderful supportive husband and I can't wait to see what life will be like after I lose this weight. Anyway, good luck to you!

I'm getting sleeved on 8/23! Can't wait! I'm from Murfreesboro. Good luck on your surgery!

Good luck tomorrow! I can't wait to join the loser's bench with you - my surgery is Thursday!

Hey jennyblue111 - so glad to hear that you had a great experience! I can't wait until Thursday to have my surgery!

Hope you feel better by Thursday Chelle68 and good luck with your surgery!
