How is everyone doing? I was sleeved on the 8th of July. SW 224 Current weight 171 I am making progress weekly but slowly.
Doing well. I was just wondering about everyone myself. Started at 217 and down to 174. I've had to empty my closet twice and need to do so again. My monthly support group has clothing exchanges too. Feeling good and wishing I had done this sooner!

I weighed in surgery day at 206 i think and I left weighing 219. I thought "what the heck did I do?" But thanks to the knowledgeable people here I realized that was Water weight and GAS omg the GAS! I lost it within 10 days or so though. Hang in there!!

HW: 217
SW: 206
CW: 182
Funny as it sounds, I get confused if my HW was 217 or 219...the 200's almost feel long gone now!

Wow, you look incredible! Congratulations!

Hi Lorrieanne1' date=' where were you and your husband sleeved? I am a little nervous, getting ready to pay my deposit and set my date. My husband is a big support and behind me 100%.[/quote']
Sleeved at PSSC in Edmonds - Dr. Landerholm. They were wonderful to work with. I'm so happy you have a good support system because it is so very important! I'm sure it will all go well!

Chiming in late but I'm in WA' date=' I live in Snohomish Co. and work in Seattle. I'm pre-op, planning surgery in December.[/quote']Good luck to you! My husband and I are sleeved and live in the south end!

Checking in . How is everyone doing? I'm on vacation for the first time and eating out every meal...feeling awful. Basically throwing up after everything. Sucks!!!! Have my second post op appointment Wednesday!Hope the vacation part is at least fun. I'm one week into a huge kitchen remodel so its really been tough. Thankfully my husband and I don't eat much having both been sleeved or we might starve. At least I can still get in my Proteins via drinks, yogurts, cheese, etc. but we have eaten out more which doesn't always agree with me. Happy with progress so far since we've now made it to the 8 week mark. Down to 186. I just broke a 2nd stall that lasted about 10 days. I have so much more energy now! Feels really good. Hope everyone is doing well!!

Totally normal and it does eventually stop. I'm almost 8 weeks out and my tummy no longer makes sounds like a freight train rolling through the house! Thank goodness!

Congratulations! What a super feeling!

That's so cool that you are embarking on this journey together. My husband and I had ours 15 months apart. If you are like I was, at the end of week 1 I was beginning to feel better. Take care of one another! It's a great journey I am finding out!

I was sleeved on July 8th. My highest weight was 219 and I'm down to 188. This week finally seems like everyone is starting to notice and I've been complimented all week. It's really nice and feels so good! Congrats to us all so far!!

I suddenly in the last two days can keep nothing down.....even liquids!! What is suddenly wrong....it is over a month! I have never been sick yet!Are you doing any better? Keep us updated! Wishing you well.

Sleeved at PSSC by Dr. Landerholm last month. I agree, great place! I live in S. King County....husband was sleeved at PSSC last year.

Mine was thrown off right after surgery so I don't know if that means to expect it now or when I would have normally expected it. But nothing yet.

Happy One Month to us all! It's certainly been an interesting month. I think we've all been through so much. From eating issues, liquid diets (stay away broth!), Constipation, diarrhea, weight stalls and all of the crazy emotions! And through it all, as I work myself back into a new "old" skinnier wardrobe, I think to myself "would I do this all over again?" The answer....absolutely!!! Have a super day everyone!!

I am going on 4 weeks post op and even though my diet now includes "mechanical, mushy" items, mine are still liquid. Doctor told me to take one Imodium a day and that at least keeps it down to once per day. So sadly, I have it timed to have my liquid BM in the morning, take my Imodium and that's usually it for the day. The "percolating tummy" sounds have finally stopped thank goodness! Talk about noisy!!
Any july 8 sleevers?

I don't have a number in mind really. I just figure I will know at the point I feel good. The 150's would probably make me happy. I am feeling so good already. I'm probably thinner now than I've been in 20 years! Haha
