I've been meaning to update but times are been crazy lately.
I finished my first semester of nursing school with all B's. My highest was an 88 med-surg. I'm eager for the next semester to begin but trying to enjoy the summer as well.
I haven't weighed myself since around may 30th, but I've lost 1390 pounds.
I had a "panniculectomy" on June 10th. But my surgeon is amazing and did the whole area minus the muscles as well as moved my belly button.
I will post pictures upon request.
Things are going quite well. Healing hasn't been too bad. I'm walking mostly upright now.
Before I started nursing school, I got divorced which is one of the best decisions I could've made. Although we share two small children, it has been best for them as well.
Sorry for the lengthy post. Just wanted to update for my fellow nursing sleevers.

Good to hear! I was sleeved July 17 2014 and am still off work and was reading about people who are back at work after 1 -2 wks. I think everyday is better but I still have a little soreness at umbilical puncture site and need Tylenol hear and there. Feel like I have to work to get fluids/protein/vitamins all in throughout the day and not get behind. I started thinking maybe it's
My age - 52 yrs old. ?? I wanted to be one of those that gets back on her feet quickly and I usually plow thru anything but this has slowed me down a bit??

I've been using Premier Protein drinks from Costco- they taste good-
Not sure how I'll feel after a week or two but they are ok for now- on day 5 of 2 week liquids- and it has helped with weight loss to date

Nice work! You look beautiful!

Amyjo Good to hear! My legs just kill me after 12 hour shifts- I wanna run circles around my coworkers and I wanna stop bumping the overbed table with my hips!
