  1. That's a major accomplishment...Congrats!! I hope I can run a 5k next year.
  2. Good Luck...and hope you have a speedy recovery, and remember walk, walk and walk!!
  3. Big milestone....congrats!!
  4. that's awesome...your sleeve will be here sooner than you think!!
  5. You'll need two weeks. First week to get used to your surgery and any discomfort, I was in the hospital 3 days 2 nights. This is normal practice for my surgeons office. the second week, you need to continue to adapt to the liquid diet. Once you go back to work after the 2 weeks, you'll start the pureed phase. Just my 2 cents...
  6. Good Luck...and hope you have a speedy recovery. Plus remember to walk, walk and walk after surgery.
  7. Amazing results at one month!! Continued success on your journey!! BTW.. great tracking...I also track monthly, (weight, inches loss and a dated picture, to document my sleeve journey and one day make a video). I will wait initially until 10/8 my 6 week checkup.
  8. My program: 1/2 cup - 1 cup whichever amount is tolerable (4 to 6) times a day. You need to make sure you get your protein in...10 - 15 grams of protein per meal.
  9. Nervousness is normal. My only regrets was waiting as long as I did to start this amazing journey. I was sleeved on 8/26/13. Best of luck with your decision.
  10. Truly amazing results in a short time period!! Congrats you look amazing!!
  11. Congrats...simply amazing results!! Hoping to have results like you in 9 months. Can you share your secrets to a recent sleever?
  12. Amazing...extremely inspiring!! I could only hope to have these results in 2 years. Can you provide a recent sleever guidance?
  13. The pain is different for everyone. Plus The morphine pump the first day really helps. Walking truly helps!! Good luck
  14. Congrats....walking does truly help. Hope you have a speedy recovery!!
  15. Amazing results in such a short time. Awesome job!!
  16. Sounds amazing. Thanks so much for sharing!!
  17. Congrats on your anniversary. you look amazing!!
  18. you look amazing. great job, thanks for the inspiration!! keep it up!!
  19. it gets easier. just follow your program and soon enough you'll be on soft foods, then regular food.
  20. Best advice would be to join a local support group, plus reach out to your nutritionist. Remember why you started this journey and have that overcome you cravings.
  21. that sounds good, what brand do you buy?
  22. switching insurance might make you start all over again, as every insurance company has their own policy. You may want to understand this before the switch. What insurance does your husband have?
