Fran.....I was told it was old blood from my surgeon.

I was on a liquid diet for 3 weeks then a pureed diet for another 3 week and then 3 weeks of soft foods. Each surgeon has their own rules.

I would follow up with ur primary doctors nurse. I'm sure it's fine, but I would make a call just in case.

It's for dehydration. Just drink as much as you can!

112 pound down and 2 pounds to goal. I now weigh 147

Thank you so much Kathy! My sister in law cried before I did when he said it! I have an amazing family!!!

Thank you! Hardest thing I've ever done in my life!!!

I went back to work after a week but was on restrictions of not lifting over 10 pounds for a month.

Hw: 259 Sw: 241 Cw: 198 Surgery was January 22, 2014 Can't believe I finally weigh less than 200 pounds. My baby brother gave me the best compliment last night by telling me I wasn't his big sister anymore...... I'm now his "little" sister. Had me in tears!!! No more fat suit for this girl!

I was sleeved 1/22.....sw 241 cw 211 We are almost identical. I've been going on a 3 week stall now.

Both of you are doing fantastic! Keep us informed on your sucess!!!

Nice to meet you too! Not many Wisconsinites on here. My best friend had gastric bypass a year and a half ago. I watched her go from 272 pounds down to 132. Absolutely amazing!!!

I'm from LaCrosse area. Looking to get sleeved the end of 2013.

You look fantastic! Keep up the good work!!!
