    How are all the September sleevers doing?

    I was sleeved Sept 18, 2017. My Start weight was 313 My surgery weight was 282 and my Current weight is 252. Felt like I was at a stand still for couple weeks and began back on protein drink for few days, replacing breakfast or lunch once a day. Think I will do that for breakfast this day after Thanksgiving Not that i ate much, but tried a few bites of pie : (

  5. I had the sleeve so i can get my 2nd spine surgery next. Neuro needed me to loose weight first but was relieved to learn the air they pump in stomach during sleeve can cause bad back pain many get this with the band also. My Back was bad first week after my sleeve better noe. Sent from my SM-S320VL using BariatricPal mobile app

  15. Im feeling better. Surgery was Sept. 18th. Im 6 days out today. Was a bit rough when i first woke & couple days with pressure on my breast bone then thot it must be from the air they inject. Glad it's over but i am so hungry. Last time i ate was Sept 3rd. Been liquids since. See Dr Tues then begins 2nd wk and mushy food. All in all wasnt that bad pain is minimal. Amazing how fast we heal. Good luck all.

    afraid to fail

    Be Carefull, they told us they can tell if we Cheat. Im now 8 days on liquid diet im a Biz itch lately. I go for the pops n shut myself in my room and drink my Crystal Light, We'll get there. We're lucky we got this far, we're at the finish line. We need to shrink our liver so Doc can get to the stomach. No more failed diets & a thinner Healthier life awaits. ; )
