Thanks UT. Hopefully I will be as successful as your husband.

I'm being sleeved soon. Men with a pre op weight of 300-330lbs, what is your ultimate maintenance weight? How long did it take you to get there? I am 305 and I'd like to be about 230. Thanks

How much are you May sleepers able to eat per meal? How many bites ?

Is there anyone else who is or was afraid of only eating 8 bites per meal? Or the fear of totally wanting more but not being able to ?

What were your biggest pre-op fears or concerns? Now that your sleeved, did those fears or concerns come true ? In hindsight, was it waste of time for you to have those pre-op worries now that you know better? My biggest fear is that a year after I'm sleeved, I will want more than 8 bites for dinner. I am afraid that , although I lost the 60-70lbs that I want to lose, that I will want to eat more than 8 bites for a meal. I am sooo fixated on this fear it's killing me. My surgery is set for Tuesday.

Anyone here worried about losing too much weight? Will your doctor make your sleeve a limitless bigger ? Thanks

Do men end up with more sleeve capacity than women ? I assume that in general men's stomach are larger pre-op so would it follow that men's sleeve are larger too? Just wondering. Man or woman -how much do you eat at a meal?

I will be sleeved next week. I was wondering what eating is like 6, 9, 12, or more months after the surgery. How much are you eating for a meal? How many bites? Do you feel like you are deprived because you are not able to eat more? I'm worried that I will have this new world of feeling constantly deprived. Just curious.

Can I ask - what does a typical meal ( quantities ) look like for all of you ?

Was wondering how much (.5 cup, 1 cup etc) is everyone eating ? And how many weeks or months post-op are you? I'm trying to prepare myself...

I'm on day 2 of liquid diet. Feeling tired, headachey, etc. Does this get better?? When?

I was wondering how far out post-op are you? And how many bites per meal are you typically having ?

I'm still pre-op. I was wondering how many bites are you able to eat for a meal? And also how many months post-op are you? I'm trying to still get my head around this whole thing. Thanks a lot.

Not sleeved yet but was wondering what was more difficult - getting through the pre-op liquid diet or getting through post-op liquid diet ?? Your thoughts ?
