  1. Hey- I was sleeved in the 13th and other than being tired and sore, im a-okay!! I was very happy to have a premier shake on day 5. It felt like a meal! I can't wait to be healed. I def need a week of rest and couple weeks of taking it easy. But in good!

    Hi. I was sleeved yesterday and I am now home resting. I had a bit of a time waking up from anesthesia. No vomiting, but I had nausea. How are other new sleevers doing? I can't believe it!!

    Hi.. I had mine yesterday too. Arrival to home in 20hrs. All going very well. All liquids stayed down. No sickness and pain ok. I'm planning for the pain over the next few days as the body adjusts from the surgery. But the various drugs will help with that

    My liquids are lined up for variety.....

    Milk ( some hot as latte)

    Water

    Lemon tea

    Jasmine tea

    Milk shakes

    Soup

    Bovril

    All in all we have done a great thing. I Continue to be excited about the future.

    onto pureed foods. who knew I'd be so happy to eat yogurt and cottage cheese?

    went out and bought some baby spoons.

    don't know how ill feel after 2 weeks, but im so excited now.

    Happy to hear you are feeling so well. Since its fresh in your mind, how did switching from clear to all liquids to purée go?? How has everything gone? I hope I feel as good as you.

  3. Thanks marrse! When is your birthday? I'm guessing no cake for us???????? My surgeon requires at least 12days with Protein shakes, Jello , juices broth. Etc. to shrink liver. It's gonna be trying but have a good chance to lose a few lbs for head start!

  4. I too was a "super healthy fat person" much to the surprise of my doctors and surgeon and while I'm only eight months out I can definitely appreciate the improvements to my quality of life post op. There are a handful of people who've stuck out to me since I joined this site and you're one of them. I thoroughly enjoy your posts. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Im a "healthy" fat person too. May I ask what you started at? How much are you now? How long have you been sleeved? You know, your whole life story. lol I'm just curious about others. I'm 5'3" and am 238. I'm 37yo getting sleeved on 09/13/16. I'm super nervous. Thanks for responding if you do. I don't normally reach out or blab like this. Hope you are doing well.

    Hi. I also have a September birthday AND am getting the sleeve on the 13th. I start my diet on September 3rd. I am also nervous and excited all at the same time. I found this app towards the end of July. I like FB better. But this is cool too. Best of luck!


  6. Hi-

    I am having the sleeve done on Sept. 13th. I have been thinking alot about my relationship with food and for the fisrt time, I am admitting that I have a problem with food. I am so scared that I am going to be hungry. What did you do to help your relationship with food and eating? How do you calm your mind down when the head games start? I feel like the mental part of this is going to be the hardest part to overcome. For all of you who have just started your journey and for those that have been traveling a while, what advice do you have? Thanks for any responses.

    I just had my surgery done yesterday 8-15-16 and while in the hospital on a clear liquid diet. I love food as well but after surgery I didn't think about your food you will do great.

I went out and bought premiere Protein shakes, prepared sugar free puddings, diet Arizona teas, Water filter pitcher...... If you want to travel together on this journey let me know. I get more nervous and more excited everyday it gets closer.
