I am on the right next to my 16 year old daughter I am wearing her clothes now hehe. Size 8-10 and medium shirts. Pre surgery I was size 24 pants and XL shirts.

@@thenewandbestme so sorry to hear your having feeling of regret i haven't gotten sleeved yet but from what i have read here its a rough 1-2 and then things get better this was a major surgery and your learning and experiencing something new so hang in there everything will be fine as soon as you start recovering thanks for sharing ????
Dc1chick thanks ???? how long has it been since your surgery?

It's not as bad as I thought. Your not hungry. Eat slowly you fill up and it's so much cheaper.

I think you mean your "new" much smaller stomach. Yes it will make gurgling, digesting sounds. Nothing to be alarmed about. It may not go away. I know with my sleeve it was always making noises, especially noticeable in a quite room.

mine does the gurgling noises for about 20 minutes or so after I eat. LOL I just fancy it as my stomach saying 'thank-you" and move on.

My stomach makes really weird noises now. Sometimes I just stop eating when it starts making them and then it goes away. Sometimes it is a sign I need to eat. It just depends.

My doc warned me that I'd be colder than ever this winter since I'm losing my fat insulation.

I'm a diabetic and my mom was too. After her last amputation she died soon after like her dad. That's not going to be me.

You all look great!

My surgery is Monday 11/9 and I am beyond excited. I know I will get nervous Sunday night/Monday morning but right now it's all thrills and happiness! Here goes! Good luck everyone. My hunger definitely decreased on pre-op diet and I did fairly well and lost 7 pounds, which for me , with typical slow weight loss, PCOS and diabetes I am happy with my 7! I can't wait for this extra MESS to fall off!! I know it won't be an easy task but it will be worth it.

Hi, my surgery is scheduled for Nov. 11, 2015. And I am starting day 3 of 7 of my liver shrinking diet. The first day wasn't so bad I guess because I was at work for 12hrs. I did get a little hungry tho, so I had string cheese for 2 of my Snacks that day. And for dinner i ended up eating a bratwurst on one of those sandwich rournds that only have 100 cal. But i only ate 1 slice. But I still lost 2 lbs that day. Yesterdays I was so hungry. I cheated too. I thought if I ate a little more than the 2 cans of creamed Soup I was allowed, I'd be ok, but nope I cheated again. So it's a struggle but praying it gets better /easier real soon, I've got 5 more days to go and a 3 day weekend of 12hr work days ahead not counting today last off day before I go back to work. Praying for success.
