Just the first day I had some nausea and I did vomit but right away his team made sure I had all the tests done and I was fine ever since then. I haven't puked nor been with nausea. I have to thank the doc and God Ofcourse because I had a great recovery I didn't even need pain medicine which I heard makes your recovery longer, I'm quite sure how true it is but that's what I read just can't remember where. Good luck! And yes he is a great n very well experienced surgeon. Any questions let me know

I Also had surgery with him récently 8/8/13... To be honest i had a great experience, no complaints. Him and his team are wonderful!

Surgery 8/8/14 HW 225 SW 213 CW 170 :D I still cant even Belice it myself!!

I'm 9 weeks out. Just a lil afraid I'm able to eat a lil more than most ppl. I'm able to eat two eggs in the morning for breakfast ( I don't I eat one) but just thinking maybe my sleeve is bigger or am I stretching it? Also I could take gulps of water rather than sips?

Hey thank you for your replies. I thought the eggs were too much but I sat down and actually times myself as I was eating and the longer I take eating the more I take chewing the more I eat so I am able to eat two scramble eggs but I feel stuffed afterwards so I've settle for one and let's say I'm not satisfy than I'll have the whites from another. So I wanted to let u guys know also just as an experiment I went to buy a meximelt from Taco Bell I was able to eat only the chicken ( I asked for chicken instead of meat) and the tomato inside of it I couldn't see myself eating the pita nor did it fit. I guess my sleeve is not too big after all and I think I'll stick to my turkey, soups, eggs like I've been doing. I wouldn't want to "strech it".

34

The reason I ask is because I I'm 5'2 and my starting weight was almost the same as you. 225 and I wish to have the same results as u but I'm two months out and I'm at 185 so far ( I'm not complaining, I love my results so far).. Just curious what do you eat on a daily basis?

Hey ruthie, how tall are you? Great progress!!

Hey guys! All of us are doing so great I couldn't be happier with my sleeve!! I could look at myself in the mirror again!! My updated stats are Surgery date 8/8/13 HW: 225 SW: 213 CW: 185 I went from a size 14 pants to a size 9 and shirts from a xxL to a L maybe even a M but I don't like my shirts tight.

All of u guys look wonderful!! And I thought it was time I would post some pics. People tell me I look very "skinny" I'm like what?? But again I think my body and brain are trying to catch up. I'm hope u guys u could see it is my first time posting a pic. Surgery date 8/8/13 HW 225 SW 213 CW 185

What are you guys eating/ate at 6/7 weeks out?? Running out if options and a little clueless on healthy eating habits.. I really don't want to fall for the wrong things and lately I've been able to hold a lil more food..

Lol.. Thank u gamegirl I will check it out

Hey, I was sleeved 8/8/13 and had lost 23 pounds since surgery yesterday I went to the nut and I weighted 3 pounds more putting at 20 pounds down. But I tried to keep myself positive I started this journey at 120/125 that means I've lost a total of around 35 since I started this journey ( not bad).. Keep positive, at least this is what I try

UPDATE Sleeved 8/8/13 HW: 220-225 SW: 213 Now: 190 Very happy with my sleeve

Yes I do the same with some clothing as long as is not pass the return date limit is fine

Hey guys I had a really really bad day today my hubby loves sushi and so do I.. Well I've been really good at not giving in to temptations and actually feed my son with no problem but today my husband decided to buy sushi ( spicy crab rolls) I couldn't help it and gave in. But to be more exact it was wrapped with seaweed and it only had crab with avocado I'm on soft foods so I did chew really good and did not eat the seaweed either. My concern is wether wether anyone knows if its ok or not? Also I had 9 small rolls and it didn't bother me at all.. I don't want to put myself in jeopardy either.. If anyone knows please let me know thanks. I will call my nutritionist tomorrow to ask her as well

Yup it was exactly made with half a sheet of seaweed.. But yeah no rice at all I don't think I'll be able at least I'm not planning until I hit goal if any.. Thanx!

My next appt is the 27th I feel good to run and actually do light weights I think I might call them tomorrow and see if I could actually start I dj t want to long without exercise I want to try and avoid as much loose skin as possible. Good luck to you and keep me updated

Oh really I didn't know that, but I didn't eat the rice nor the seaweed that rolls it, just had the crab with the avocado. Ever since than I've been finding myself eating avocado everyday like a quart of an avocado if not less. I hope that's fine lol.. Thank you for the info

You guys should try premier protein chocolate shake.. I hated them before surgery and hated anything that had milk or chocolate in it but let me tell u this shakes I love! I take two a day and its 11 oz with 30g of protein also it has about half or more of calcium that we are supposed to consume a day.. You guy should try them, there is also a vanilla flavor but I like the chocolate one better hope it helps you guys

We have similar stats! I'm just keeping my hopes up and making the right choices.. Have you started exercising??
