  1. Again and again I must say....throw that @&£*^€ scale away! Hehe. You shouldn't be weighing all the time in the beginning. It drives you crazy. :)

    Smh lol I was sleeved on the 10th and I have stopped losing weight as well I lost a total of 30lbs and I'm stuck my weight hasn't changed in days I was starting to get depressed but I'm happy I looked on here!


  2. Hopefully this will motivate those of u who are nervous I was sleeved June 10th less than a week ago and I'm already down 18 lbs. the beginning is extremely hard I was miserable but since yesterday I have been pretty much back to normal. My stomach is still a little bloated but that's it!


  3. Hi!!

    Well its been almost a month since I set foot in my surgeon's office for a group meeting and I feel like its gone by so slow yet so fast! He said it usually takes his clients about 3 months from initial consult to operation. I just met with my amazing NUT and had my upper GI done. I have my PSYCH appt in two weeks. My question is' date=' and Im sure its different for everyone, (maybe not) is when does my claim get submitted to my insurance? I called my insurance and they really didnt give me a straight forward answer and it got very frustrating. Yet I dont want to piss them off and have them deny me. Which I'm sure would be illegal but I'm not taking any chances LOL! What has YOUR experience been?? How far along are you on your pre op journey?

    ALSO!!! Are you all apart of any Sleever FB pages? I'd love to connect on fb if possible!!

    Thanks!!

    My journey started in feb and I was just sleeved one the 10th of this month. As far as the insurance goes my claim was submitted after all my appointments were done


  4. My surgery was the same day- June 10th. I'm really hoping it gets better! I am having lots of incision pain in one spot and the left shoulder gas pain is keeping me up at night. Praying for relief!

    My back is killing me and I can't stop sleeping I feel sooo bloated its horrible I just want this to go away I had a small bite of fish today and I'm full the Protein shakes are nasty can't really drink Water but I have the Popsicles


  5. I think my day 3 was the day I seriously doubted my decision but that only lasted a day. I'm 6 months out and extremely happy! Drink drink drink! It gets easier

    I am I just hate pain in anyway so it's driving me crazy ! I should be ok i will post again in a couple of days to see if anything changed


  6. I had my surgery june 10 I'm three days post op and I must admit the beginning was a struggle I feel much better now still haven't been able to actually eat anything but I'm trying to stay hydrated which is extremely hard because I don't want to eat or drink anything! I'm really bloated. I'm using the pain meds often I need them. I can't wait to be myself again.


  7. Yes it would be nice to at least keep the drinking during meal thing a consistent no...

    You know that reminds me of my auntie. She has always been very skinny and very concerned about her and her children's weight she doesn't like fat people much..(the boys always looked under weight to me :()

    But as her children were growing up she had a rule at the dinner table NO drinking with meals.

    Makes me wonder..

    I was told by my nutritionist that drinking while eating will stretch your stomach that's why it's forbidden
