CW 181

CW 185!

I was in the same boat. I only had 4 months to see the Dr. Then they would send in for approval. Well the first month I cut out fried food and soda. I lost 9lbs. The second month I cut the sweet tea and started eating healthier but I didn't cut everything (cause when I started my BMI was 42.7. ) The third month I cut the sugar . I lost more weight I felt good. Coming into the last month they told my BMI was 40.2 right on the mark of being approved to be careful. I had come to far to not go through with this. So going into December I enjoyed Christmas holiday meals. I still never had fried food, soda, sweet tea. But I ate what I wanted to. When I went back in January I gained about 5 lbs. I was sleeved 2/3/14. I've lost 57 lbs since I started. I feel great. Best decision I've made. Good luck with your decision.

I'm in! 189 as of this morning! Let's try for 180!! Let's get up and get moving???????????? Good luck everyone!

My daughter went through Dr. Kim @celebration she didn't have that 600 dollar fee. I just had the sleeve done through ORMC with Dr. Jawad's office. 2/3. I didn't have that fee either. Maybe it's something new they have started. Good luck.

Thanks familyguy. I have a few more weeks to recover. I can't wait to get back out there.

I'm interested to know how long you waited also. I am also very worried about hitting the ball as far. My husband says I'm going to lose some of my power. I am 3 weeks post op. I hope I can try to swing the club at 6 or 8 weeks.

I was sleeved on 2/3 as well. Home and doing pretty good. Hope everyone is doing well!

I am excited! Today is the day. Sitting here waiting to go back to get sleeved. I started at 242 lbs. back in October. Today 214. I have been up and down in weight. No more!! Going to lose all this extra fat and get fit!!

Today is the day I stop the roller coasters!! I'm excited as well. My husband is here with me also poor thing has to wait for 5 hours to see me. Good luck praying for a speedy recovery for all of us:-)

Hey belladonna, I'm having surgery tomorrow also. Good luck and praying for a speedy recovery!

Hi I did the same thing when I started my journey. I stopped eating fried foods, no soda, no sweets. I have dropped 27 pounds. I was doing the shake thing for breakfast. So now on my pre-op diet it wasn't so bad. My surgery is Monday 2/3 :-)

Sounds like your doing good Tate777. My vsg is on Monday the 3rd. I like the premier shakes 30 grams of protein. Keep up the good work.

Very excited! February 3rd in Orlando with Dr. Texeira. Premier shake has been my favorite- chocolate of course! I started at 242, since my nut appt. and now my 2 wk pre-op diet I'm down to 218 with 5 days to go.

Hi I'm on day 6. I have been hungry but I get one lean meal a day. Although I haven't had over 700 calories a day . Yesterday i was exhausted. My surgery date 2/3 also!!

Mine is 2/3. I slowly started my protein shakes in November. Officially day 2 of my pre-op diet. I get one lean meal a day so it's not bad.

Wow Linda sounds like you did great! I have it in my head to follow instructions and be a good patient. I think it will go much better that way. My daughter was sleeved about 18 months ago. She had a few setbacks but she is doing well today. She is 29 weeks pregnant. And the baby is growing wonderfully. I will keep you posted after surgery!

Hi Linda from Florida. My name is Lynda also. I have 4 grandchildren and another granddaughter on the way in March. How did your sleeve surgery go? Are you adjusting well?

I am having the sleeve through Dr Jawad's office. My surgery date is 2/3. I'm so excited. Do you have a surgery date yet?
