connnie got a reaction from Deactivatedfatgal in 4'11", 200lbs - am I a good candidate?
I am 5 foot. BMI was 41 but I also have sleep apnea and high blood pressure. You should definitely do it. I am one week out and have lost 11 lbs. feel so much better than before surgery already .

connnie got a reaction from Lattedah in April Sleevers, What Changes Have You Noticed?
I was sleeved 4/18 its been two weeks today. I am doing pretty good. Have lost about 20 pounds. Family says they notice in my face and legs. I notice in my boobs. They are now starting to flatten! I actually feel better as far as not having reflux all the time as I did before surgery. I had a meltdown Saturday and had a good cry. It's true it is very hard to give up an addiction. I think about food constantly and look on Pinterest through out the day looking for recipes when I can eat normal food. Only sleep about 4 hours a night. But I am happy I did this. I do not have any regrets. I lived a very unhealthy life for decades. I am going to be able to feel good. Ride a bike again, play with my grandkids and keep up with my two teenagers that are still at home.

connnie got a reaction from Dashofpixiedust8 in Itchy hands
I ended up having Cellulitis. It has left my hands and went to my feet. Both hands ended up swelling terrible. And now it's my feet. They gave me antibiotics so I hope they will work.

connnie got a reaction from Msbean in what was your miserable phase?
I couldn't handle 4 weeks on liquids. I am also 5 foot and started at 218. Had my surgery two weeks ago. Hopefully I will lose as much as you.

connnie got a reaction from Chris Lee in Clear liquids tomorrow, then Sleeving on Tuesday
My surgery is tomorrow and I two am having second thoughts. I have been back and forth on it for awhile. I do know I have never kept weight of by myself. And want to once feel comfortable and not sweating just to walk into a room due to being fat and feeling embarrassed. Plus want to be around for my Grandchildren. So I think I just answered my own second thoughts just by writing this.
