I just turned 61 on April 15th and I had my sleeve on April 12th, it's nice to see other mature ladies that have had the surgery and doing well. So far I have not had any complications, just the usual pain when I swollow my liquids, it doesn't last long but a couple of seconds. Everyone please continue to take care of yourself.

Hi Watch.Me.Lose.ItI had my surgery yesterday and doing quite well, I would love to chat but it's 2am, I woke to go to the bathroom saw your email and wanted to touch base. I will chat with you tomorrow.

Hello all April Sleevers, I had my sleeve done today, actually it was yesterday morning at 5:30am. Surgery went very well and I had a small hernia repair done as well which I didn't know I had. Surgery only lasted about an hour and since that time, I have walked the long hall 3 times and been sucking on ice chips the whole time. I thank God that I haven't had any issues. One piece of advice I would give would be to follow doctors orders as close as possible, suck on the ice chips, walk as much as possible and listen to your fellow sleevers who have had it done already. Good luck to everyone and if you have any questions I'm here. God Bless.

Hi ckunes. Don't be so hard on yourself, we all make mistakes and fall back into old habits sometimes. The key is to realize where you went wrong and go from there. Like you said, you are a RN so you know what you have to do. I wish you the best going forward.

So glad you're feeling better!!! I have 2 boxes of optifast that I have to finish, lol. Hopefully someone will be able to use it. Talk to you soon. Let's exchange numbers and keep in touch.

Good for you with the fluid intake! I hope the pain is not so bad, I think by you having a positive attitude will do wonders for you and your recovery. You sound as though you're getting the hang of this. I think as long as we pay attention to our bodies we will be ok. I pray you continue to do well and enjoy sitting on that Losers bench.

Hello everyone, it's nice to have a place all our own, where is everyone from, me: Delaware.

I paid $335 for my 2 weeks of shakes, protein bars and soup. I also purchased some vitamins from CHRIAS which was another $43.

How are you doing qtonduty30? It's getting close right, do you have a surgery date yet?

So glad you're home an doing well. I go in April 12th. How have you been the pass few days?

Congratulations to you and see you on the Losers bench!
