Sleeved May 6th down total of 60lbs including pre op!!!! 30lbs since surgery! However, be careful I'm at a stall cause I'm able to take in a little more now so I have increased exercise and water and starting losing again.

I was sleeved May 6th 2013

Ok, I was sleeved May 6th 2013 and am able to work out. I been walking 1 mile day and do 5 lb dumb bell arm exercises, and do Pilates leg work out! All daily for few days now. Im also using Palmers Co Co Butter for stretch marks and firming skin. I'm wondering if there is anything else I can do to tone up the inner thighs and under arms! I am terrified of having saggy skin, any ideas will be greatly appreciated

Awesome thanks, I'm so nervous about having saggy skin I don't want it AT ALL lol

Oh ok thanks so much!

You may need to start boosting the exercise. Like walking faster and maybe add some 2lb dumb bells to ur walk. Push the water In take. I'm 7days post op and walked half mile this morning and will do another tonight with 2lb dumb bells. A friend if mine had sleeve and I asked her she said change up ur exercise routine, smaller portions, more water and only weigh once a week. I hope this helps I have been seeing a lot on here lately about "stalls" and am getting nervous it don't happen to me so soon. Good luck

I am 2 weeks post op and my friend does the "body wraps" do you think it's ok to do them on my arms and thighs??? Advice advice

Post op I'm getting 40g but normally 70 g

Anyone know why I would still be having incision pain on my top left incision?? I'm 4 days post op and my other incisions don't hurt when I sit up but this one still hurts really bad?.!?! Any thoughts??

I am taking off from May 6 to May 20th, I had sleeve plus an abundance of scar tissue removed by laser it hurt like crazy!!! I'm 4days post op and and am still needing help with getting up/down etc

I am 4days post op and and an only tolerate 1/2 a Popsicle, 1 Protein shake and 1/2 can of Soup a day I'm barely meeting protein goal which is 40g and barely meeting Fluid intake which is 64oz daily Any suggestions? Or am I doing ok for just being 4days post op

Do you have pics? An how much have u lost

Hi, I was sleeved yesterday at 11 am and I feel great! My surgery lasted 1hr 15min, during surgery DR found a significant amount of scar tissue so he went ahead and removed it. I woke up from recovery room about 1pm in "discomfort" but not pain so she gave me 1/2 dose of pain med I was good, I have been pretty much like this whole time. My main goal was to walk as much as possible so I have been walking around hospital floor about 18X which is not over exaggerating! I think this whole expierence is a wake call to how critical it is to do everything right! God bless any questions just ask

You should go see your surgeon just to make sure all Is ok

Sorry meant run**** I am just so nervous I will do the wrong thing and be hurting from it lol

What clear fluids is everyone doing? Like give me a runs down of your daily intake including Brands an etc... Plz

Thanks to all for answering my question about tanning! I'm a big fan of thinking tan body is better than ghost white lol. Glad you have lost 50 already!!! Exciting! I'm so ready for May 6th

So what was it??? Anxious to know

Awesome thanks, so how much weight have you lost?

I am having Surgery May 6th and was wondering how long after I have to wait before tanning in tanning bed??? Anyone know?
