I am in the Portland area and had my sleeve on May 9th. Down 4 dress sizes from woman and now into petite sizes. Worth it! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Dr Patterson was my surgeon . Anyone interested in meeting up? My surgery was May 9th and I am still upset I put it off for so long. One of the best thing I have done for me in my life. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Hello! I am in Tualatin. It would be nice to meet up with other Sleevers and we can order one meal and still have to ask for a to go box! LOL! My surgery was on May 9th and I should have done this years ago for myself. I only used 3 pain pills and went right on to children's Tylenol and ibuprofen. The only problem I really had was feeling thirsty for the first month and a half. The problem I have now is shrinking out of my clothes. Well, it's my husband's problem, because I get to keep on buying new clothes!!! My summer clothes are able to go to a new home. If anyone would like to meet let me know and we can set something up. Pre surgery people, good luck and hope to meet up with you, too. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I have to work hard everyday to get enough liquid . Still short and each day make an effort to drink a little more each day. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I get more food per meal when I take a long time to chew and wait a couple of minutes for the next bite. I can get about 3 oz of food per meal and on a good day maybe 4 oz. if I over eat I feel like puking . Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I had the steak and salad cravings. I cheat with the dark chocolate. I just let a piece melt in my mouth. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

salad has not bothered me, and strawberries I can eat 3 berries. Watermelon helped with my thirst, but I would have to remove what was left after I got the juice out. A little Soup with veggies is a good start. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
