  1. I just posted my first post about my gastric sleeve on my blog today. I had mentioned in the past on it that I wanted the lap band, but we decided to go with the sleeve. I really haven't seen many sleeve blogs to follow. I'm hoping if someone comes looking they may find some answers on my blog.

  2. My surgeon recommends caffeine free. I followed it for the first two months. From what I recall him saying, it's more about not getting dehydrated while trying to keep 64 oz down after your surgery. I drink the occasional regular coffee and sweet tea and I'm fine. If the tea is super sweet my heart pounds a little fast but otherwise I'm ok.


  3. Yes, it's very real and very frustrating. I had to just decide to step away from the scale. I was stalled for about three weeks and felt so pathetic. I thought I'd be the only one to have this surgery and then not lose anymore weight. Now I'm 3.5 months out and I still stall. The stalls are just not as long. My weight also fluctuates regularly. I'm constantly down between 55-60 pounds. But I can feel the difference in how my clothes fit. I try to focus on that instead of the number on my scale.

    Good luck!! You'll get passed it!!
