Me too! I'm planning on waiting 6 months. I just want to be really comfortable with what and how much I can eat/drink before going out with someone new. I would be mortified if I all of a sudden needed a bathroom on date!

Ok, so, who is currently dating after your surgery, how are you meeting people, and how is it going? I am only a month out so I am electing to not date until maybe 6 months out.

Let's keep this going....I'm a single, 44, female in northern California. Had my sleeve 9-11-19.

All cleared for Stage 3 diet! 2 weeks done and 19 pounds gone. I am also allowed to soak in my tub and start exercising again.

Had my surgery. Things went well. It's now day 3 and my stomach muscles are still sore, hurts to stretch or bend over. My stomach still feels bloated but no gas pain. Weirdly my eyesight is a bit blurry. I am meeting my clear liquid goals. Tomorrow I can start cream Soups, yogurt, pudding, and cream of wheat Cereal. No hunger per say, but I am looking forward to some yogurt and pudding. I hope I still like it.

Had my sleeve surgery yesterday. I just got home an hour ago. My stomach feels like i did 1 thousand crunches. My nausea was very bad at the beginning but has pretty much gone away. The gas pain is real. I had it in my upper back up and over my chest and both shoulders. 5 walks and 5 times using deep breathing, only 1 shoulder has some discomfort. Each day things get better and less sore. I do not regret my surgery at all.

I met Dr. Z. My advice to you is to write down your food log exactly as the binder says, 3 Proteins with 2 veggies or 1 fruit and 1 small carb. My food log was an actual food log and he said my log was "crap". I am required to submit 2 full weeks of diet logs for him to review before allowing me to schedule with the Case Manager. I still have yet to hit goal weight so that is slowing down my progress too. Too much stress about this and life with the fam. Keep me updated with your progress since we seem to be the only ones for our facility!
