BWaltD

Haven't tried a cannula. I'll call and see if it will be something I can try. Thanks

Wow! How r u getting in 80g? I'm really struggling! Only getting in 3-5 glasses of Water a day and 20-40g Protein. I was sleeved 2/17.

That's awesome. No problems here. Sleeved Feb 3rd. It hit 29 lbs this morning and 75 lbs total with pre op diet. I'm taking in around 70 ozs of Water, 700 cals and 80 grams of Protein per day. It's going to be an awesome summer for us. Here is a picture of my progress. The two pics are maybe 8 woks apart and around 40 lbs.

I was sleeved on February 3rd. Released to go home on the 5 the and had sex that night. Slow motion but it counts. Lol.

How's the progress going my fellow feb sleevers?!?

Hello to all you fellow February sleevers. How is everyone doing? How is your diet progressing? How is the "melting" going?

Buck fever--- how you feeling?

Post op I couldn't tolerate broth. Sooooo salty. Made me gag. I am 14 days post op now and still pretty much drinking the Protein Shakes.

Congrats to you both for having now belong to the loser bench, I am happy that your both during well, I can no wait to join you.

Jerzie Girl. How are you doing?

Hi. Day 10 post-op. I'm doing well. I do miss chewing. Today I had a scrambled egg for Breakfast. OMG. An egg never tasted so good. The Protein Shakes are starting to get O L D..... As for my numbers... I'm down 15 lbs since surgery and 61 lbs from the pre-op diet. No pains no real discomfort. It's going to be a great summer for us.

Canton here. Sleeved 2/3/14 and doing good.

I've been loving Muscle Tech Protein Powder. 120 cals and 20 gr of Protein per serving. Tastes great

Today is day 4 post-op for me. How sweet is propel and how salty is Soup? ? Crazy taste buds.

Had my pre-op appointment today Blood work, x-rays, etc All set for surgery on Monday Look out skinny people here I come!

I was sleeved on the 3rd of Feb. all went well. This is going to be a great summer.

Hi. I was also sleeved Monday the 3rd. All is well. I'm a tad sore but that's about it. Liquids are going in no problem. I'm up and walking a lot. Things are going good. I'm a happy boy.

Great this tread is still active. This Respiratory Therapist is now sleeved. Surgery was 2/3/14 and I can say all is well. No problems sipping, getting my fluids and Protein in. Walking is going well my OR IV fluids has come off nicely and as of today I am down 5 lbs from Monday morning. I think about the Stephen King movie "Thinner" when I see myself begin to melt. I'm on my way. 2014 is my year!!!

So my psychiatrist has the same surgeon as me he had his done 4or 5 weeks ago n lost 45 pounds that's awesome... N I got my approval 15 mins after just talking.. Im excited

Thats awesome.

I had my eval 2 weeks ago. I am a 49 yr old male.

I was exhausted after my eval I needed a nap. A 20 page questionnaire followed by a 2 hour interview. How far do you let them in? Hard cracking that door open an inch and not letting it burst open. Funny note. I was handed a piece of paper that had the outline of an obese person on it. Around the out edge were ailments related to be overweight. After stating which

Ailments i have " at my current weight". I was then ask which of the others am I concerned about getting if I do not lose weight. Having had enough of this eval I looked over the list and said, I pretty much have the four worse on the list and attempted to hand the sheet back to the good doctor. He said surely there is something I was concerned about getting if I didn't lose the weight. I looked again and stated polycystic ovarian disease. I look up and he is writing that in my chart. I start laughing out loud and he looks up at me, makes a face and scratches out my reply. Funny ****. Not that PCOS us funny but I was done. 10 minutes later its all over. 10 minutes after that he returns with his eval and my approval. YEAH!!! I then stated. It was a little tense in there. Ya gotta cut loose now and then and walked away a happy man.

Ive got 2-3 more hoops to jump through and hoping for a mid December surgery date.

I am currently a stay at home mom of three ages 6 to 16. I do a lot of volunteering both at the elementary school my two youngest attend and also with the Plymouth area coalition for the homeless (we put homeless men up in local churches for about six months a year' date=' feeding them dinner and making sure there are always two chaperones with them). I was previously a preschool teacher with a short stint in a toddler room and was also an infant teacher. Would love to go back to school for social services. Sleeved August 28 down 32 lbs as of this morning[/quote']

Plymouth Mi. ?

Add to my list to never use my cpap device again.

1. for my husband to wrap his arms completely comfortably around me

2. to not have to scout where I fit to sit on the train (i commute on public transportation to work)

3. shop in the regular sized section

4. for my son not to point at overweight women and call them "mama" (he's 2. it's happened a few times)

5. for my ankles to roll when I walk so I don't look like frankenstein when I walk.

6. cross my legs

7. fit in the tub with my husband

8. have a lap

9. to wear dresses

10. not sweat so much just by WALKING

11. to have people move out of the way when I'm walking. When i used to be thin' date=' people used to move out of my way. Now that i take up a good portion of an aisle it seems i'm invisible.

12. For my joints not to hurt

13. To be able to fit into clothes from nice stores/boutiques

14. wear heels again. SO looking forward to this.

Great list. My wife was sleeved in April. Now down 94 lbs. she has taken up wearing high heels. ONG. So sexy. Im loving it.

Im adding not to sweat so much and decrease joint pain to my list also. Thank you

I can't wait to/for:

1) not being afraid to garden in my front yard( bending over to pull those weeds in my shorts surely would freak out the neighbors' date=' dog - walkers and passers-by

2)soak in the tub and be fully submerged

3)get up from sitting on the floor without the aide of nearby furniture

I just realized that there is not enough room here to complete my list!

Good luck to us all!![/quote']

Love your tub item. I agree

Getting up from the floor with out aid is now on my list also.

Love your list!! Go kick some weight loss arse!!

Thank you
