I am 6 days out from surgery. I was scared to death. Friends tried to talk me out of it. I am doing fantastic. Only take a pain pill at night. None all day. I am walking and have my follow up on 10/1. Think about what will happen if you don't have the surgery. I am only 310 now 295 and had sleep apnia, high pressure, pain in knees and hips, miserable, and very unhappy. I chose to take control of my life and glad i did.

Big Andy: I'm a guy too. I think us men loose faster.

Congratulations. I lost 15 pounds in 5 days and several people could not believe it. I can't explain it either, except that I've been on all liquids for most that time. I'm very happy and doing great. Sleeved 9/20/13

I don't know. I was 310 them 305 pre op, and weighed in at publix and was 295; so 15 pounds post op. Neighbor said she could see it in my face, neck and shoulders.

maybe a splash of vodka in vitamin water?

I am 5 days post op and would really like to have a few sips of wine. Do you recommend i not??

I want to say hello to all the sleevers. I've read your posts for months. Was sleeved 9/20/13 and already lost 20#s. Doing well. The place where the drain was and one entry point are still leaking. Should i be worried?

Hi Ammy: I am new too. Surgery 9/20/13. I'd also like to say hello to all the seevers. I'm doing well too. Start weight 310 and now today 295.
