Atlanta - me me me!! I was sleeved 12/17 in NYC.

I started at 250 pre-op and was 241.3 the day of surgery.

Today I'm 236.5! Woot woot!

Look for me on IG- exgordiis

@ proud granny how much Biotin do you take?

Sleeved on 12/17 n leak test done the following day n no drain on me.

Ditto. 12/17... No drain or leak test

I was sleeved on 12/17 n still in pain n swollen. My upper back is killing me too due to not getting in a comfortable position to sleep. Walking has helped me n doing ok on the broth n drinking my Water with Crystal light n some Jello. Still having rumblings n cramps on stomach, Has using a heating pad on stomach helped anyone?

I was sleeved the same day! The heating pad has saved my life!

Sip sip sip and walk walk walk. Use your incentive spirometer!

<p>Every single night I get dry mouth. Without fail.</p>

Yes! I was so freaked out last night. Fell asleep with and ice chip in my mouth.

After months of fighting with Aetna, Lindstrom Obesity Advocacy won my case against Aetna! I'll be sleeved on Tuesday, December 17th.

Last summer I was denied by Aetna FOUR days before my scheduled surgery. I was heartbroken, but Kelley and Walter at Lindstrom saved the day!

I'm getting married next year and I can't wait to walk down the aisle, a slimmer and healthier me.

Ill be right there with ya!!!! I find out my time tonight and I am anxiously waiting by the phone for that call. I haven't even been hungry at all today. Did you have to do the liquid diet before? I only have a one day liquid diet...today. I found some ensure clear drinks at target just a moment ago and will have one of those if the hunger pangs start. Good luck to you!!!

I have to do two days of liquids.. I'm going to start a day early... ahhhhh it's happening!

just ordered a digital food scale! $25 on Amazon

I'm set for July 9th!!! Have some Protein shots, B12, multi, Biotin (to prevent hair loss I've read about), D3, bouillon, sugar free ice pops, Jello, and some shakes. Still need to pick up a new scale and flavorless Protein Powder. Figure I won't be eating that much the first week. Good luck to those having surgery this week!!!!

we'll be sleeved the same day!!

Best of luck!
