A big HAPPY DANCE AND WOOOHOOO!!!

You look absolutely stunning, healthy n happy...good on you!!

U look just beautiful!! U wear it well, keep up the gr8 work!!

Lol...oook, Doc:/ lol.

Ive read lots of posts about ur situation n ur not alone, but the better news is, that everyone gets passed it, I've not read one single post where a postop is still on liquids or suffering from lack thereof. It's hard now but reading the postopers stories reassures me nd I hope now you, that all will be ok. I'm not sleeved yet, going threw the hoops first, but ik what to possibly expect thx to the people here! I just hope if n when its my turn, I don't forget their advice :/. Stay strong:). Drink drink drink....quoted from post-oper's everywhere:)) God bless ur recovery.

Hang n there, u r on ur way to success, God Bless u:)

God bless n speedy recovery to u all!

Just awesome. I can't wait to feel n look like that. I'm just starting w the whole thing so right now, I'm just an onlooker n supporter!

Ik this won't make u feel better and I'm sry for that but true friends would accept u no matter what u look like. If they can't change in a positive manner w you, then u make a change in friends. Keep n stay positive w positive people surrounding you. God Bless:))

You look gr8!! Gj

Like its always been said, we didn't put the weight on overnight, and though some may lose at a different rate, we are all different. Don't beat urself up, just think, have u ever lost 26lbs so quickly prior to wls? So ur doing gr8! Just don't let the scales decide ur success. Just remember that uve had the surgery, now u have a tool to be more successful at losn than u ever had b4! You are, can, and will do this, just give ur body time to adjust to such a major change and don't kill urself w zumba...I use to do it b4 my bad knees. Hopefully after surgery, i'll b back at it. Good luck n God Bless You. Dee Dee:)

Still sweetie, u don't need that non support. So really search for someone else, I mean, y let insurance reimburse this idiot and he's not supporting ur choice? Newhoo, there are a lot of successful people whose gone threw the surgery and doing / did gr8! Chin up n keep reading n if u have to stay w that jerk NUT(literally as well ) then prove him wrong,not bc u have too but bc u CAN/WILL!! bye4now, Dee Dee:))

Gr8j!! Keep on losn n lookn good:))

I went to my first wl meeting two days ago. The first thing talked about by the nutritionist was no smoking at all. She said that is one thing that will disqualify you from having the surgery because of its effects on healing call the ulcers in the stomach and it can really b a problem for the sleeve initially nd n the long run. She said not just cigarette smoke but any kind nicotine n any form. Then the doctor came in he started out by saying if any of you smoke you will be disqualified from the surgery not just by smoking it anyway you can come to your body including the gum, patches e-cigs. And he also said if the nutritionist not tell you we do test to see whether or not you have nicotine in your system, so if you are planning on having surgery anytime within the next four to six months stop smoking or using nicotine of any kind right now. And he said anytime during the six months at all, they have the right to test again for it. Not bc they hate u or don't want u to have the surgery, but bc they have seen results. He about a lady who had surgery, lied about smoking bc they didn't use to test, and now she has a big hole in her stomach which can not get fixed until she stops bc it will nit heal or help her right now. So I say, go n get some health from ur surgeon bc ik its hard to quit cold turkey, so learn the gruesome facts n maybe it'll help give u all strength to stop. God bless.

Praise God! Glad that part is ovr n ur doing gr8 on the drugs, lol. Keep us in the knowwwww.. bye DEAR:)
