    Who Are You?

    Hi my name is Carol. I am 41 years old and I've been heavy since I was 13 years old. I gained 15-20 lbs with each child...I have four; bringing me up to my highest weight of 244lbs. In the month of June 2015 I decided to get the sleeve. I didn't dwell on it a lot. I just made a firm decision...made the 1st Dr appointment, set the surgery date to 9/15/15, went to all the doctor's appointments until the day of surgery came and my life has changed since then. In three months I've dropped 60 lbs, went from a size 20W to a normal size 14. I hit challenges everyday but I've been able to overcome them easily now because of the sleeve. I'm looking forward to a longer and healthier life now. I feel extremely blessed.

    Does it get easier?

    I was suppose to wait until day 14 to begin soft foods but I just couldn't wait any longer. My head hunger was horrible so I had my first soft food on Friday 10 days post op and it felt like heaven. I never thought cottage cheese would taste so damn good!! I'm now eating creamy soups, baby food (fruits) and I ate my first yogurt this morning. So far my tummy is behaving. It will get better...absolutely!!

    1 day post op!

    I had mine 8 days ago and was hit with nausea really hard, couldn't even talk the first 2 days cause it would make me gag. I'm all good now. The sipping got better each day and so did the pain from the incisions. You'll be just fine! good luck!!
