The weight will come off slowly. You will be bloated for the first couple of days. Don't loose hope. It's going to workout for you.

Today is day two post op. I have no regrets. It has been a little painful, but everyone has informed me on my wonderful progress. Just keeping positive thoughts and looking for to that light at the end of the tunnel. The hardest thing for me has been the nausea and gas pains, but they provide meds for that. Wishing any future sleevers a good luck and speedy recovery. :-)

I completely understand how you feel. This is my first surgery as well. But I plan on enjoying my holidays n not worry about it until the new year.

Congratulations and good luck.. There are definitely a lot of us that can be supportive and try to help u get through this. :-) I'm waiting to have my surgery which is not til January.

You look great.. I too started at 238. My survery is not until January 2013 :-( seems so far away. But I look foward to having the surgery. Loose skin was a concern of mine, but if I end up with a little loose skin, I will be ok with that. You are truly an inspiration. Thank you for showing us some pictures. :-)

Congratulations. U look amazing. I can't wait to have my surgery.. :-)

You look great. Congratulations.. :-)

Hi.. Nice to meet you. I'm Marilyn. I highly recommend laser treatments. I started laser treatments in 2008 and love it. I go to Ideal Image an they had a payment plan that they worked for me. I'm a full member now and whenever I want a touch up I just set an appointment. I used to have to be in front of the mirror in the morning and at night. Now I don't have to pluck or shave. If I get a treatment say today, I won't have growth for like 2-3 months. It made my new hair growth very very thin and not coarse. I can not lie and say it doesn't hurt, because it hurts a little. But I will go threw that pain of I do not have to be plucking everyday. :-) I'm a good listener myself, if you like to chat. Keep me posted. :-)

I will have my surgery Jan 21, 2013 and that seems so far away..

Thank you so much.. :-) I am looking forward to achieving my weight loss goal and enjoying a new me. I do not have kids nor am I married but I want to be able to have kids in the near future. I want to be healthier especially since there is hypertension and diabetes in my family.

Thank you. :-)
