Hey everyone! I have not posted in a while! How is everyone doing? Feeling? I am down 87.5 pounds in 4 months! It's the most amazing feeling! I have so much energy and I love being able to go to the misses racks!!! I started at 320. I lost 20 pounds in my 2 week pre-op period. I am now 233.5 and I am so excited to be almost at triple digit loss! To realize that I have lost a pre teen is crazy! Just another 65# till my goal! Cannot wait???? hope you are all doing just as great!!!!!! Xoxo

I was sleeved October 22!!! Congrats to you on your amazing progress! Keep up the great work!!!!

I am firefighter/EMT/nurse. I am out 6-7 weeks. Finishing week 5 now. Good luck.

Hey everyone. I am 4 weeks post op and find that I hate to eat. I hate the full feeling I get so quickly and the burping after is very embarrassing. I am happy I had the surgery but just down in the dumps this week I guess. Anyone else feeling this way??

I can have literally 2-3 bites of food and start to burp. I get it when I drink too. I just have to get through my food withdrawal and over my addiction to food. Thanks for the help

Where can I find the recipe for the lasagna and taco cupcake?

Normal. I had the same thing. Still do as far as the gurgling. Now when I gurgle or hiccup I know I am full. It starts to calm to down a bit after a few weeks. Walking helped the gas along with gas x. Good luck and welcome to the bench!!

Totally normal to have the jitters. I was sleeved oct 22. The day of was the worst for me. Just super anxious. And being a nurse myself, I knew what was going on. After the surgery I had some gas pains and nausea/vomitting but that is how I usually react to anesthesia. You will do fine. Keep your head high. I am down 33 pounds and super happy I did this. You will be too. Good luck!!!!!!

Just wondering if anyone has any quick and easy tofu recipes? I found a couple online but want to hear from you great people!!! Thanks!

Has anyone found themselves to be freezing cold all the time? I am 2 weeks post op and down total 31 pounds since oct 11 (pre op diet included). I used to be hot all the time or comfortable. Just not used to being cold I guess.

Still no power in Long Valley. Hope to get it back before this nor'easter comes on Wednesday :-/

How is everyone doing? Still no power here but not complaining as I still have my home, family and lively hood. Hope others are doing well

I was sleeved on 10/22. I am down 27 pounds including pre-op weight loss. Everyone cannot believe my progress thus far and how much I have changed! Been having a hard time getting in my water because I live in Nj and damn sandy took my electricity. But doing my best! Keep up the great work everyone!!!!

I was sleeved 10/22. Doing great. Feeling good. Gas pains stopped the next day when I was able to walk. Still having pain on the left side but that is to be expected. Hope everyone is doing fantastically!!!!! We are all in this together!

I was sleeves on oct 22 by Dr. Abkin! He was truly amazing!! Good luck to you all!!!

Hey. My surgery was oct 22. I am 2 days out. The burping is killing me. I never really burped before so this is all new to me. It's quite annoying. Every time I take a sip of water or a tiny bite of jello I burp non stop for about 10 minutes. Anyone else go through this???
