I'm so excited for you, and glad to hear you are doing well.

Thank you everyone. Now i have a question is it possible to already have lost 30Lbs ???? I was on a liquid diet a week before the surgery and i weighed myself today and im 30Lbs less. I even had my other family members weigh themselves on the same scale to see if it was right and it is. I just cant believe it.

I'm so glad to hear that it went well! :thumbup: I have been wondering about how you were doing. I know you were really nervous before the surgery. :confused: Now I'm in the same place you were. :scared0: lol... I'm getting the sleeve tomorrow at 10am. I can't believe I'm actually doing it! We'll have to keep in touch and follow each other's progress.

What do they have you drinking now? How do you feel? :crying:

That seems like an awful lot, but if that is what the scale says ...

Absolutely possible. With a starting BMI of 47, you will lose more weight faster than those with a smaller BMI. Congratulations!

It does seem like a lot of weight, but a lot of it could be Water weight as well. A pound is a pound in my book. I had a BMI of 48 starting off, and it took me about 3-4 weeks to lose 30lbs if I remember correctly.

[DownInSocal 12]

I am so glad you are happy and things went well.

I think this is possible yes. I am sure a lot of it was Water weight but take it! The first several weeks I lost rapidly and made other people get on the scale to make sure it worked. When I came back to work I even got on our freight scale which is certified and it was spot on.

Keep us updated!!!

Congrats! Mine is in 2 days. My scale lied to me . I started at 252 and 5 days later it said 245! Just on preop diet. then 2 days later it was 248! huh? so I am taking the 248 figure as the right one. darn it. I am still determined to make the scale move 2 to 3 lbs a week , after my sleeve. TWO MORE DAYS.

Ok so I have this question. Sometimes I feel like the top of my stomach "expands" I dont know how to describe it, but it kinda feels like heart burn, but at the same time it feels as if something is trying to come up right between my breast bone. I know that is where the opening of the stomach is, but it kinds hurts when it does that. Does anyone else have that? It only lasts for a couple of seconds, but still ... am wondering that that is?:confused:
