  5. I had mine on jan 3rd. So far down 73 lbs. I have had my blood pressure meds reduced from 20 mg to 5 mg. I go to the gym three nights a week and do about an hour on the treadmill. Currently eating between 600-800 calories a day with between 70-100g of protein. I realized that making sure I get enough protein and drinking water all day has helped when the weight loss slows down or stalls.

  7. No. I felt like I was ready to go back to work in a week. Follow the program that Dr. Williams and his team has put together and you will do great. Even the time in the hospital was good experience from the members of his team to the nurses. Good luck and let me know how you make out. If you have any questions along the way let me know.
  8. I had my six week follow-up this past Friday and I am down 64 pounds
  9. I had Dr.williams. I had a great experience with him and his whole team. I was sleeved on 1/3

  11. I thought about it for four years and came up with every possible excuse and delay that you can think of. I am 35 years old and have a 5 yr old and a 2 yr old. I made the decision that I wanted not only to watch the grow up but to be able to do things with them. I got sleeved on 1/3/13 And have lost 50 lbs so far. I still have a long way to go but already have more energy. It was a tough decision to make but I can tell you it was the best thing I ever did. The pain and the change in lifestyle is well worth it in my opinion if it means I am going to be there for my family.
  12. Dr.Williams did my sleeve. Had a great experience with his whole staff.

  14. Sleeved on 01/03 and I am down 50 lbs.
  15. What hospital are you going to have your sleeve done at? I had mine at upenn and they have a support group that meets a few Saturdays a month. It was actually a requirement to attend at least one before the surgery
