  1. Sleeved November 11th. Starting weight 377. Weight today 330. I've hit that three week stall this week so I've picked up my exercise and liquids to kick it! Love this sleeve stuff!

    Thanks folks!

    Acid Reflux

    Yes, she put me on Prilosec and I take it every morning. Just doesn't seem to be working. She put me on it months before the surgery even though I had no reflux. But I sure do now!

    Acid Reflux

    I am three weeks post sleeve and doing well except for acid reflux issues every morning. Going slow with the protein shakes in the morning around 8. Then doing water till 11. Eat a cream soup around 12. About 4-5 oz. then back on water around 1 till 330. Having food processed items around 430. Last night was 4oz chicken breast processed. Ate about half. Then back on fluids again around 530 till around 9. Shake again around 930. Bed at 10. But the mornings are horrible with the reflux. Anyone having this issue?

    November Sleevesters?

    Was sleeved on the 11th. Got discharged yesterday. Still sore but the key is to walk, walk, walk! Worse part was recovery but walking the first hour after recovery really helped. That barium swallow for the leak test was HORRIBLE! But good luck sleevers! Now to start losing!

  11. When I told my boss I got more support than I thought I would. I am of course a guy with male boss and male counterparts. I thought they would give me "****" but they were very supportive and understood I wanted to get healthier. I was totally surprised.
  12. Keep your mind on the end goal of what you want to feel and look like for you. There is a saying that pain is weakness leaving the body. I look at this surgery and pain will be weakness leaving my body. The diet and excersize will be the pain but weakness will be leaving my body. I will feel and look better when I have reached my goal. Sure there are feelings of doubt and scaredness but I have to keep my mind on my family and kids and being around for them long term. Keep your heads of folks. We are here for each other. Love this forum. You can do this Army Wife!
  13. November 12th here too! Getting excited and nervous at the same time. I cannot wait to buy clothes from a rack!
