My husband looked at me today and said Whoa! Your face is so much thinner...such a good man.

That is amazing, you are doing great! What was your starting weight?

I'm hoping I have some results like this! I'm 27 too and will go back to the gym ASAP. I'm 10 days post op and down 27 lbs. I hit a small stall today because I'm having problems with fake Protein. I get to start real food next Wednesday so I'm just trying to hold out for the real deal!

Ok so I was sleeved right at one week ago. I'm so pleased with the results but today I realized that Even though I'm losing weight and its exactly what I wanted, nothing prepared me for the changes I'd see in my face. The changes aren't bad (no wrinkles, sags or bags) but I look different.

It sounds like you might be on a two week stall. I hear over and over how common this is and to not freak out. Just keep following your rules and it'll pick back up!! If you're having trouble with the scale- then you should focuse on some NSV's.. Take your measurments and see where you are!!

I was debt free until my sleeve. We had the cash to pay for it out of pocket but we also didn't want to be screwed if our taxes were higher than our estimate so we took out a no interest loan for half the cost. Debt free was the best feeling in the world until the weight started dropping. Totally worth it!

I have slept like a baby every night since surgery UNTIL last night. I had horrible nightmares all night and my husband had to wake me up three times from my "blood curdling screams" as he put it. I rarely dream that I can remember and it shook me to the bone last night.
I start back to work tomorrow so I am a bit afraid of the kind of sleep I will get tonight. I hope your sleep pattern improves. I really believe a very important part of a successful recovery is the proper amount of sleep. Best if luck. I'll be thinking of you!

Did they give you a spirometer? That's helped a ton with my breathing.

Today is my big day! On my way to the hospital and surgery is scheduled for 10!!

I'm scheduled for January 30th! I start my liquid diet Wednesday!
