Any newbies out there? Has my surgery on 8/27 and looking for new Sleevers to go through the journey with.

I get neuaseted too. Foods with mayo are particularly bad for me. Feel better.

That is incredible. You should be so very proud if yourself. In just starting my journey. I was sleeved on August 27th. Please share some of your wisdom that you have learned over the year. How did you stay motivated? What are your favorite meals? Did you exercise if so when did you start? Peace.

Awesome!

You go girl!!!

In getting this lump checked out tmrw. My husband thinks it might be a hernia. You're right about being patient 1gorgeusgodzilla. Ill only weigh myself once a week from now on.

I stopped losing the last two days as well. I was sleeved on the 27th. What is up w that?

Hi does anyone have a lump above their belly button?

One thing I wanted to share from my postoperative appt today is - I asked if I can combine mush phase with full liquids since I'm drinking strained cream soups. My doc said no and it has nothing to do with stretching my stomach. It has to do with any part of the sleeve stretching and a staple popping. Just wanted to let you know what I learned.

Thanks for the info jenschob. Welcome cbailey. I'm in Chicago.

Hi nikkimarie. I have a lump and soreness about and to the right if my belly button. At my postoperative appt today the dr said its normal as they move and shoved our inside aground.

First postoperative appt today I lost 24lbs!!! Yay!!! Feeling good. They took the drain out THANK YOU JESUS! still have to crush my pills and another 4 days of full liquids ugg! BUT I LOST WEIGHT! So excited.

I'm so excited to hear about the possibility of not having to crush my pills. I have my appt with doc on Thursday. It's the two times I hate the most! How are you getting ur 60gms of Protein in daily. I'm on full liquid and have two boost high Protein drinks but that's 30mg total and its 4 4oz meals a day to just get that in. Are there any hints? A good high protein powdered unflavored? Need tips.

So happy to be amongst fellow August Sleevers. Day 7 post op. still meanderring around the house. But, I'm a full time working single mom who never meanders around the house - so I am not going to feel guilty and I will embrace it ☺

Miika Thank goodness you are okay and home. I have to sleep half laying down half sitting with pillows under my legs and around my sides. Like a cocoon ???? I brush my tongue with no burn listerine before bed. It helps.

Sounds like everyone is doing ok. I'm happy for all of us. We made a HUGE decision and our lives are changing already. Lake K - I'm so so sorry for your loss. He is looking down in you cheering you on. We will hit 50 together looking and feeling fabulous! I started at 257lbs. Was 247lbs day of surgery. My goal weight is 150 with a year and a half to get there. KY Christi - you go girl! I'm off too be mean mom And make sure lunches are made and homework is complete. I hope we can go through the journey together. Peace.

Hugs to all. I was sleeved in the 27th. Physically great! Mentally and emotionally a freaking mess. Cried today when I watch the Long Island medium eat pizza on her show - thinking I want to eat that whole pie.

Oops I'm drinking boost Water Popsicles apple juice Jello water barely getting 20 mg of Protein in

I'm so happy you are feel great sleevedsmurf. I shouldn't complain with all that could possibly go wrong. Did you all come home with a drain

Danielle I agree. I think I'm dehydrated too. I want to guzzle water.

I'm a 48 year old single mom of two girls, 16yrs and 12yrs. The hospital stay was a but of a vacation lol. I decided I was going to turn 50yrs at 150lbs not 250lbs. So here I go.

Danielle I hurt when I drink sometimes too. Also when I burp... Ouch! ????

Hi Sleeved Smurf I came home from the hospital on the 30th. I had been laying in bed for the last 3 days but today got up, showered did laundry drank my Meals and will go outside for a walk tmrw. How about you?
