Im so happy to read other sleevers @ 60 having around the same (or close) to the weight lose as myself. I have been thinking that 58lbs wasnt as good a loss as others. My surgery was 1-31-13 being 7 months out I thought I would be at goal by now? Its been a slow last few months .. one stall after another. I tell myself 58 is a lot, but when you see others losing 90-100 lbs in the same time frame makes me wonder. not being able to exercise is part of it Im sure. Also loving ice cream.. Lol;

Your fine.. its all about shrinking the liver. I had my surgery Jan. 31st I did cheat a few times on pre-op very difficult. Congratulations on making it to day 8.. keep up the good work. It will all be so worth it.

I had my sleeve done on the 31st . today is the first day I feel less pain from gas to the incission sights. My left side is the worst. Weakness is my problem now. Im very thankful I havent thrown up or had much nausea.I have felt the dizziness. I know its going to get better everyday. That's what I look forward too. I was told you could feel shoulder pain during your recovery ? I cant wait for stage two.

My surgery is the 31st I have been on the preop diet for a week Im starving !! cant wait for the surgery to be over so I wont be so hungry

Congratulations !!!! Im 2 weeks behind you, I started my preop diet today.

I too am worried about the pre-diet... I dont have a surgery date but its going to be in Jan 2013. I have been eating like a pig & now im thinking when I go in for my pre-surgery appt they will refuse me due to the weight gain? anyone know if thats a possibility?
