SwimT got a reaction from Sedica in Any January 2018 Sleevers?
At 1 week I had lost 10 pounds exactly. I had VSG and hiatal hernia repair. My mom had VSG, GB and hiatal hernia removed 3 months ago and she has lost 42 pounds. It might just be excess fluids from the IV give it a little time and stick to the diet.

SwimT got a reaction from FluffyChix in Family member not being supportive...
My husband wouldn’t even talk to me about surgery and I wasn’t sure he was even going to be there. The night before I finally asked him if he was going and he said yes. I was surprised. Since then it’s been hard because I still cook for him while I’m making broth for myself. I finally just decided this is for me and I don’t care who supports this. I have tried every diet and yo-yo’d and I am just finished with that! Good luck to you

The preop diet was challenging and I honestly didn’t stick to it. I did manage to lose some weight even having a few slip days. I had my sleeve 1/16/18 and I haven’t had any issues sticking to the post op diet. The challenge is cooking for my husband while heating me some broth! But if I can do it anyone can! Good Luck!

SwimT got a reaction from nervous2018 in so nervous- please help ease my nerves!
I wasn’t nervous at all, but my Mom was. She had hers in October and she is doing great. She had her gallbladder removed, hiatal hernia repair and a sleeve. She doesn’t regret it one minute! I had sleeve and hiatal hernia repair 5 days ago. Just prepare yourself for some incredibly dry mouth and sore throat. That was far worse than my incisions. Get up after and move and you will do great!!!

Good luck. I went in not nervous at all! Attitude is important. My surgery so far was super easy!
