    Gastric Sleeve Nov 14 2014

    Gastric Sleeve Nov 14 2014

    Down 17 lbs feeling great......the issue now is now being able to go poop. Sorry for tmi but been on toilet for 40 mins and can't pass stool...so painful is this normal
  5. I had my sleeve done on Fri Nov 14 and had severe reaction to anesthesia. Vomiting nausea abdominal pain weakness in walking....it was miserable. Even started to question if doing this was the right decision. Then on Sunday morning I woke up and felt a great deal better.....walked around nursing station several times, even washed up and put on my own pjs and got out of hospital gown. Going into surgery I weighed 263 and on Sun I weighed 255 than yesterday I weighed 248......seeing those results and feeling better lets me know this was the right decision. Slowly drinking protein shakes but barely eating much of anything feeling full from protein drinks and water. I make have two or three spoonfuls of yogurt ....crazy to me.

    Not having support from partner

    Thank you.....today I expressed my feelings and opened up while my partner sat there in silence....not uttering one word except saying how sorry she is. I am filled with complete sadness because I wanted more than sorry and when I didn't get it I just felt sad. I guess this process will change various aspects of my life including weight loss. Not quite feeling like myself tonight.....just very sad and down and keeping to myself. I am not sure what I am feeling......JUST HURT
  8. My partner of 7 yrs says she supports my decision to have the sleeve surgery yet makes comments about well if you went to the gym and ate smaller meals you could lose weight. My nutritionist says I eat very well but with my PCOS it's hard to loss weight and I struggle. But hearing those comments makes me feel she doesn't get it and makes me feel like I'm a failure for doing this for me. I want this surgery to get back my life and overcome this weight obstacle. I go to my nutrition classes and come home excited about what I learned and went to share it with her but she makes comments how can that be healthy, are you of sure she said that, she can't be right, if you were a eating healthy you wouldn't be overweight......who wants to hear that and everything I eat my partner sees. I don't cheat. I'm just feeling really down and the support I need on the home front base I am not getting and want to know anyone else dealing with this....
  9. Well my sleep study is scheduled for Sept 2nd, Endo Sept 8, and then its just nutrition visits and surgery will be here before I know it....Nov 17th as of now. amazing how time flies

    NEWBIES..... LETS STICK TOGETHER

    I bought mine from Puritans Pride huge sale. I was told by nutritionist to start taking them now to get into a regimen so it will be apart of my daily routine so when surgery comes I won't think twice about taking them ....every one will be told different things I am sure
