Best thing I have done.
Start 223lbs and now Weigh 115lbs. I am 5'2".
I eat every 2-3 hrs. I do not eat potatoes or Pasta or breads.
I eat substitutes instead.
I get my 80 g Protein in everyday which is priority to me and my Water intake which is mixture of water/ Vitamin water/ crystal light/decaf tea/decaf coffee/ sugar free Popsicles.
I have no problems except Constipation which is norm from so much protein.
I just take Stool softener at times
If I eat a salad than I go without needing stool softner.< br>I go to gym 2_3 X a week. I use to go 4-5 X a week.
I am no longer on meds for B/P,
Cholesterol nor diabetes. Everything is normal now.
I don't need a knee replacement now either. My knees feel good.
I just Thank God for this Blessing
For my health.
So you just do everything you suppose to do and everything will be fine.

I am 2 yrs post sleeve. I was scared too and had some anxiety but all for nothing! It is the best thing I have done for my life. It was so good with the surgery that I thought some thing was wrong. I felt so good I could not believe it. Only had some gas pain which went away when you walk it off. Had no problems with swallowing at all.
Did everything by the book. I have lost 110lbs.
No more meds! Health is good!!
So don't fear!! It will go well. Just do what you are told.

Yes
I have not lost friends but I notice a change in how they act towards me.
Even my closes relatives.
I hear some negative things out of their mouths.
But I know what I had to do to change for my health. I don't care if they understand or not. I am happy with me. I feel like I am no longer in bondage to bad eating habits. I am do thankful and grateful I made a wise choice.

I was told to drink Decaf coffee and tea. Wait at least 6 months for stomach to heal. Caffenated coffee and tea will dehydrate you.
I am 1 yr post op and have a cup of coffee everyday.
