227.2 was starting on the challenge..... Down to 222 today. Goal is still 205.

Recovery is going well. I was having a lot of gas pain today. I think it was because I over did it yesterday. I have a hard time getting all my fluids in, just don't have the appetite for them. Almost have to force my self to get them down. All and all I'm feeling pretty good. How is yours?

This seems like a fun and interesting challenge so I am in... I am 4 days post op gastric sleeve surgery.. Starting weight is 233 current weight is 227.2. Goal weight is 205 by Valentine's Day.

@dad77.. I am doing good. I'm supposed to be released from the hospital today if I can keep fluids down..I have to drink 40oz before they will let me go. I'm at 8 oz right know. I do get weird feeling in my esophagus when the water goes down. I think it's because the water is to cold. I have pain where my incision sites are but that's really it. First day post op I had pain in back etc.. Lots of dry heaving every time I tried to drink anything..I'm slowly getting there and just ready to go home.

Dad77 my surgery is tomorrow morning as well and I have had all the same thoughts except I have thought of beer and pizza. I have reminded myself that one day I will be able to eat my favorite foods but it is in moderation. Good luck tomorrow!! :-)

I am having sleep done on January 8.. I have been on the pre op diet now for 4 days. I'm definitely getting nervous.

Thanks so much. I am hoping I rebound quiet quickly. However I understand I am having major surgery so I will need some time to get familiar with the new me.

I am having my surgery on January 8.. So excited! On pre op diet now and what I wouldn't give just to have a yogurt.

How is your endurance 3-5 days post op? I am having surgery on Thursday and curious what to expect a few days after.
