Hey everyone! I'm 17 weeks post op and down 60 lbs. I was just wondering if this weight loss was a little slow considering that I have a friend who has lost about 100lbs in the same time frame. Regardless I am so so so happy with my sleeve and the decision I made to change my life. Please if anyone has tips or tricks let me know! Thank you ????

Sleeve done Wednesday
Had my sleeve done on Weds! i didnt do well with morphine or anestesia- aside from that, i am home now on my clear liquid diet until sunday. Not for nothing, it is not an easy recovery as people think- its tough and im sore. But it should all be worth it in the end! any encouragement?

One Step At A Time
So as I get closer to my surgery date, more and more questions and "what ifs" are popping into my head. Feeling anxious and excited- What if I get too flabby, what if I can't do it, what if I never love myself even after the surgery. But then again, its one step at a time & as long as im healthy, Im grateful. Taking it as it comes & hoping for the best. PS- exactly how much protein should be taken in daily after surgery?

My Journey
And so after a long 6-7 months of pre testing and doctors visits, I will be getting gastric sleeve on Wednesday, July 30th! I am both super excited & really nervous at the same time. It's a new beginning for me & I can't wait to see what the future holds. So glad I came across these forums so I can share my story and recieve encouraging advice from others. Any words of wisdom?
