I sure hope so. I read somewhere that it can take a few weeks to see weight loss in some cases cuz your body might need time to adjust. Btw do you think sipping something warm will help you feel better?

Thank you for your comment, it’s nice to hear from someone in the same timing as me ! I’m glad you’re doing better. You also reminded me that I am very much listening to the whispers of the enemy right now. So, I have my bible study I have been ignoring open right now. Thank you!

No lie y'all I'm over all this sh*🤬 today. I want to burst into tears and cry on the floor.

What’s the matter? You’ve been our cheerleader. What’s troubling you? You are doing amazing. You can’t give up.

Omg! I had on June 7 too. You are inspiring me! You go girl. Wishing you blessings and favor at work! Go forth and shine!

Thanks 🙏🏾. I have. However I had oral surgery right before my bypass so I have two bottles. 🫣😏. They kinda make me dizzy though so I try to grin and bear.

Oh yeah they are very thoughtful of my situation, and the Protein my people said I am only to have 60 grams of protein on this liquid diet, so I only drink 2 Protein Shakes and 22 ounces of the chicken broth and plenty Popsicles, Jello, pudding. That's my countdown to the sleeve

Oh gosh. I'm glad you're ok. Take it easy please 🙏🏾🥺

Back from ER. I was concerned bc I had a very right red eye and two swollen ankles and my blood pressure at ER was in the 200’s. I have never had that high. Had ultrasound on both legs and labs, along with chest X-ray. They determined I’m retaining fluids. Thank God no blood clots! Suggested I could wear compression stockings and for me to rest and elevate legs. Gave me a diuretic for 3 days to reduce swelling. The awful looking red eye was not so urgent to them. They said it would go away on its own. Thanks for prayers and positive energy. Have to admit it was scary for a bit.

I’m at the ER with swollen ankles. Gonna check for blood clots. Surgery was 4 days ago too

I’m glad to hear you walked around inside your house. That’s what I’m doing. Laps around my house. I can’t get to the point where I’m presentable to be outside

Yes the connection to food and every activity is literally so eye opening, the other night I wouldn’t go to the movies because sitting there not eating did not seem at all worth it to me, I am curious how much of me is actual hunger and how much is mental, cause I’d bet most is mental … congrats on your surgery! How are you feeling? It’s nice to know the cravings may go away ❤️

I’m right there with you. I start pre op diet Monday and I’m ready to go. Bring it on.
UPDATE- went out for ice cream with my kids yesterday and had some pizza today. Im ready to rock and roll tomorrow morning!!

food funeral..... I had ice cream and boy did I bury the hell out of it 🤣

Not silly. Food funerals are real. Before my surgery I had wings and ice cream. Now that surgery is over I’m not feeling hungry I don’t have cravings either. I can smell the bacon my wife has cooked and it has no appeal. There is such a connection with food, making plans with friends visiting family… all have something to do with food. Would t it be nice to have someone say hey let’s get together and skip rocks at the lake or something. Stay strong and you are aloud to mourn.

Sharon, thank you no much, I was worrying about the wrong thing. But thank you so much for all of the positivity I love and needed it

Wow thank you! I needed this! Like I really needed this! You are absolutely right, it will be so worth it, haha I’m actually crying right now cause I needed someone to remind me how very miserable food made me, it was only good for the moment, and the misery and shame I felt was unbearable… we need more kind beautiful people like you in the world and thank you again I just screen shot your message to read when I feel like this because your so right … how are you feeling? Congratulations on your surgery!!! Tell me how it’s been going? If you don’t mind

My surgery was May 13 how are all of y’all May people doing????

Hi there!!! I just got my revision surgery date today. It's June 28th. My hospital pre-op appt is June 12th and my pre-op appt with my surgeon is the 13th. Super excited to finally get back to my life!!! I actually loved my sleeve, but the horrible GERD, esophagitis, and gastritis it caused pretty much brought my health, weight loss, working out, and overall happiness to a screeching halt. BUT....now that I have my surgery date, I'm super excited to get my life back and finish my weight loss journey!!! Happy June surgeries everyone!!!!

Two days post op and woke up in a lot of pain… still have a lot of gas in me. Being discharged today. Going to miss the good painkillers. Hope everyone is feeling better.

Had my surgery yesterday morning. Upon waking the Gas pains and nausea were bad… I was not expecting it to be that bad, it was truly a Struggle. I am much better now thankfully, sipping on my liquids and hopefully going home today. Very excited for all of us starting this journey! For all of you struggling right now, hang in there! And know that there are many of us in the same boat and rooting for you!
