Thank you!!!

Thanks!!!

First visit 255lbs preop 225. Today 166. My surgery was 12/10/12. Thanks!!!

All I can say is THUNDER DOWN UNDER! Tasteful show, lots of fun!! $20 per person to get a picture after the show. Have fun!!!

A year ago I went to Vegas and didn't have such a great experience. I hurt walking, couldn't take the heat, etc. Then I go back exactly one year later, which was 7 months post op, and had the time of my life!!!! I never had to open a door, I was complimented all the time, had an amazing time in the night clubs where I was invited with no cover and free drinks. That would have NEVER happened a year ago. I can't wait to go back!!!! Very grateful for my gastric sleeve and the opportunity to live life to its fullest!!!!

-always having men now open doors for me - being mistaken for my teenage daughters -shopping in my teenagers closets - fitting into ANY roller coaster/ plane/ chair -energy -so many more stores & styles to choose from -not embarrassed to run into old friends or speak in front of a crowd -ready to go to the beach -feeling GREAT!!

Mine did. I was approved for a hysterectomy but no need now! Things are going alot better now

Talk to doctors right before you can in OR and tell them any concerns about pain or nausea. Makes a big differnce in the outcome. My gastric sleeve as the easiest of all my surgeries. Just pain in my shoulder from the gas and weakness from meds and not eating. But that was all mild. Sooo glad I did this!

I feel full. So full I have to sometimes lay down. It's a little different but u suddenly know u don't want one more bite. If you eat more than your stomach can hold it stacks up in your esophagus, not a pod feeling

I've never enjoyed holiday gatherings where people get together and over eat. Grosses me out. But now that I have my sleeve I find it even more repulsive. And the gym will be closed. I know the reason for the season, and I'm truly grateful. Time to worship my maker not the baker! Here's to another healthy holiday!!!

I'm 3 months post op. Started loosing on preop diet I began in Sept. for a total loss of 72 lbs. (42 of it was post op )

Thanks! 70 total . 30 was preop. Looking forward to the next 35 to be gone!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Disney food was too rich for me. So I took food and kept at the hotel. Once a day we drove to panda express or chickfila. At panda the single serving of an entree is prefect size. At chickfila the 4 piece grilled nuggets and fruit is good. Good luck with surgery!
