hi, i had my surgery september 22nd, 2010, i came out doing great, i had very little pain and started walking right of way. i am now in my 2nd week of full liquid and am about to start the pureed stage. i am so looking forward to that. i currantly eat 1/4 to 1/2 of a cup 3 times a day and i am not hungry at all. i think that is fantastic. i love not wanting food all the time. my doctor gave me a very small sleeve he said smaller than most so he said be carefull not to streach it. i am just so excited about my new journey in life i had to share somehting with someone. i hope you like it and i will post more at a later date.

Hello! Good for you, I think your going to like the journey, there are bumps and obstacles along the way (call carbs) but with a strong will you can over come these obstacles . . . i had a small sleeve too 28 - 32FR . . my journey has been most interesting, hateful at times, but rewarding. . . and it keeps giving me positive results which makes me happy!
