Lara, 38, Louisville, 3/9/15 sleeve

I went to initial info meeting In December and had surgery 3/9. From what I can tell the way dr old ham does it is much more efficient than other doctors. Part of the delay was my insurance. Good luck. He is super nice and cute.

Surgery 3/9 and down 65! Good luck ladies!

I need to go there but worried it's too soon. My current bras' cups are too big for me. I'm into an class from 2x/3x but afraid I'd be disappointed trying on their bras and them not fitting.

I was told 15/1 hour. I've seen 30/30 and tried drinking sooner after eating and I feel sick so sticking to one hour.

Okies triple zero 15 grams of protein

I had surgery 3/9 and get all my protein, water, vitamins, etc. it takes about 6 weeks. Hang in there!!

I had surgery 3/9. I went back on birth control about a month later. I have had my period for over 2 weeks. Also, in the last 2 weeks I have only lost a pound a week. Has anyone else had their period like this? It is not heavy and not consistent but will start sometime during the day.

My husband and son had pizza the other night for dinner and I wasn't hungry so I did a workout video while they ate. Most nights we eat together but I did mine own thing sometimes too. Just part of the new life, I guess.

No hunger at all. Best part!

If the psyche was the same guy he was a weirdo. He said something to one of the ladies in the group I was with the day I was screened about needing therapy and she freaked out on him. He seemed to need therapy himself.

I'm not a fan of Kirstie but everyone else is great. And I think I've been successful so far;)

In louisville. Had surgery 3/9 with Dr. Oldham at Baptist Bariatrics.

On my schedule it says baby food. Does anyone go and buy baby food to eat? I'm not in a hurry. I had surgery 3/9 and it takes me 45 minutes to eat 1/2 a jello cup;)

I came to the board excited about surgery 3/9 until I read this. I have a 10 day pre op diet of 3 bariatric advantage shakes a day, 700-900 calories and water each day. I had a few days I wasn't perfect. But I weighed myself today and have lost 16 pounds in 9 days. I'm good with that. I may not have been perfect but would not use that as a reason to delay surgery. And I wouldn't take advice off the internet of whether or not I should reschedule a surgery. While yes there is ownership over this pre op plan but in reality we have very different plans. My plan is not tailor made to me it comes from a preprinted manual. The doctor does it for everyone. Following a pre op diet exactly may be an indicator for future success but I don't believe that. I know what I'm going to need to do and realize that this surgery is a tool to that end which for me is what I need. My point is I think people need to be careful dispensing and listening to medical advice on the internet.
