  3. Congrats on being sleeved. I'm assuming you've been up for a walk. Did the walking help your gas pain? how are you feeling this afternoon?

    Haven't been walking much yet as the medicine they give me is putting me back into deep sleeps will have a shower then going to get rid of this gas pains a lil bad but to be expected :) no vomiting that's a plus

  7. I'm scheduled for January 22nd at University of Illinois in Chicago...2nd day of pre-op diet. I am hoping to get some buddies! :) I'm nervous, excited and quite frankly hungry. I just need to remind myself how fabulous I will look and feel. That I will be able to eat and enjoy food again- just less. I ran into a girl at the hospital yesterday. She has lost almost 100 lbs in 8 months. She was just beaming and so happy.

    I have my surgury on the 22nd as well feel free to message me would love to chat :-)


  8. Finally someone else having the surgery on the same day. Sure we can be sleeve buddies. I'm having my surgery in Kirkland Wa.

    I know I have a great surgeon. He did my wife's sleeve, and gall bladder. I'm still scared.

    I start my clear liquid diet tomorrow. I get to include Protein shakes I belive 6th rams of Protein a day.

    Good luck too you also. If you have any question ask away if I can't answer them I know my wife can.

  9. Well we will be both having the sleeve on the 22nd so feel free to message me we could become sleeve buddy's im sure you'll be fine just remember life wouldn't be fun without taking a risk Im sure your in great hands and I wish you well on your road to the sleeve to be honest im finding this liquid diet hard and emotionally playing with me going from multiple calories a day now to 500


  10. Hi guys and girls around the world nice to meet you all im cait im being sleeved on the 22nd of this month by dr Michael France from ashford hospital im starting my post op diet tomorrow this will definitely be a challenge but so worth it I will only be consuming about 500 calories a day im excited for the new journey im about to undertake and I believe it will help me in the future being only 17 I know this will be mentally tough on me but I can do it and I want to do it what where some of the things that surprised you most after surgery would you do it again how did you cope after surgery and most of all do you regret getting the sleeve I've done countless hours of research and I do believe this surgery is for me I've had a knee reconstruction at the age of 15 and am needing a now full reconstruction so carrying this extra weight doesn't help I've decided to go with one of the best surgeons in Australia so this has made me feel at ease im looking for new friends to chat to so please message me if your free for a chat age doesn't matter thanks guys and girls have a great day/night and god bless you all xo
