  1. I'm 3 months out and have had no issues at all. Not even been sick once. I'm careful to watch the carbs and stay within the guidelines of carbs, fats, Proteins and sugars given by my MD. Wt is down 31 lbs today! may not be a lot for some, but for me, it's great. I can't tell you how much difference Ouse 30 lbs have made. I feel wonderful, no knee pain anymore, no apnea. I have no cons. For me it was a great decision


  2. I had to use a CPAP for the last 5 years. I traveled extensively and carried it everywhere. I had a resumed and it comes in two parts, very easy to use and travel with. I also carried a thermos with distilled Water that fit well inside the travel case. It will b come second nature and I'm 4 was post sleeve and haven't had to use it once since the surgery. Good luck


  3. Overall this not been bad at all. I had my sleeve March 9th and and down 17 lbs and feeling great. Two nights in the hospital, the worst part of pain was the location where they removed the portion of the stomach. Other sites were barely sore. Came home and only tok pain med one more day. I'm up to a mile 3 days a week on the treadmill. For those posting about what to bring to the hospital, Pillow for the ride home and stretch pants. I took everything everyone suggested and didn't use any of it, including the pjs. It's easier to get up and move as well as go to the bathroom in the hospital gown. Pjs would have hit right where the incisions were.

    I'm trying to to look at what everyone is losing. My surgeon reminded me that everyone loses at a different rate, so to just focus on getting my calories in. I'm still having trouble with that. Since I don't really have any appetite I have to force myself to eat

    Anyway..just an update and I hope everyone else is having great results too!
