    One month has flown by and I had my big weigh in at the doctors office, which I was excited to see what it would say. I am at 202 from 235! In one month I lost 33 pounds and have went down a size in pants and 1/2 a shoe size. I also was wearing a 2XL to now wearing some L. So glad I had this life changing surgery!

    Decided to go to ER for fluids since the doctor said it would help my lightheadedness. I got fluids and was sent home. I am back home and still lightheaded. Am drinking as much as I can and it is not helping. I hope it goes away and I will not have to call the doctor back.

    Day 9 post-op

    By momofjal,

    I have been lightheaded since yesterday. Almost passed out one time yesterday! Being at home with three kids, that was scary. I checked my BP and it was 95/65, very low. So I called my doctor's office this morning because I am still lightheaded. They said it is because I am dehydrated! I believe it because I have been having a hard time getting the 40ozs. in, but have been very close everyday. So, now I have to try to drink as much as I can today and if it doesn't get better then I will hav to be admitted to the hospital to get fluids. I am doing nothing, but drinking all day. So far I feel the same.

    I am down to 216 from 235 in one week! 19 pounds gone! I have not weighed this in years. My husband has never seen me this small, I love it! The doctor said everything was good and then I had to talk to the nutritionist. she said to start taking some vitamins and start my protein shake.

    I have been very nauseous today and have not got my 40ozs in today. I also have problems with seeing things. Things that are up close are very blurry, but I can see thing far away a little bit better. I have never had eye problem. I have slowed up on pain meds and hoped it would help with the eye problems, but it has not worked so far. Also hoping that I can finally go to the bathroom and bloating will go away.

    I have been doing very well. I love my doctor for sending me home with liquid pain meds and a pain pump. I feel that I have been eating all day! I have had around 20ozs of water, 2 sf popsicles, 1 fudgesicle, broth, and some jello. I ate a the popsicles and the fudgesicle. A little bit of the broth and jello. I have not gotten sick and hope I don't! I also have not felt full yet either! Will give an update later in the week.

    First time to ever blog! Today is clear fluids only and is the only day that I had to do it pre-op. Tomorrow is surgery day! Have to be at the hospital around 2:30pm. I am ready to be healthy not only for myself, but my three kids, husband and body! I can't wait to see what the future holds for me and my beautiful family!

    Feeling much better today! I took my pain pump out last night and finally had a BM this morning. My vision is getting better since the pump is gone. Go Monday for post-op. Can't wait to see how good my sleeve is working!
