Just leaving the cardiologist. Had an ekg last week and it turns out.i have a right bundle blockage. Well according to the cardiologist my heart is healthy with no concerns. I am soo relieved!! So I'm still on for August 10th. It cant come fast enough!

I'm so happy you got good news!! I wish you the best and August 10th is just around the corner. Continue to pray and stay strong. The payoff is amazing!!! You asked when did I start exercising. My surgery was 12/13/11. I started to fill strong enough to walk after my 3 month checkup in March. I walked 1/2 mile for three days then 1 mile the next three days. It was hard and I was out of breathe but the more I did it, the easier it got. So, I pushed on pass the itching and aches. By the end of May, I was up to 3 miles 5 days a week. I saw a huge weight drop and pushed myself to five miles 5 days a week. Well, it didn't hurt anymore and my body was used to it. At my 7 month checkup July 13, 2012, Dr. Yu said congrats you've passed your goal. Now I do three days a week and I'm still losing. It's slow now, about 3 lbs in 10 days.

I will pray that you get through your surgery with zero complication.

Im getting stronger each day. I discovered unflavored Protein mixed with applesauce is key for me. Im feeling better now. liquid I use a spoon. Its better for me. G2 keeps me hydrated. Im only able to eat baked potatoes, sonic ice and applesauce for now. Everything else will stay down. Im able to wear large shirts now.

Please don't give up my sleeve friends. Trust God .I promise he will help you.

The stress test sounds scary and I hope I don't have to do that :/

Looking back, even though I would absolutely HATE to do it again, I would, I gotta get back to living life and not just watching it pass me by...It's not all that bad, It just felt really weird, the nurse told me to move my arms and feet to ease the weirdness, it helped some. Just looking forward to the end result :D

I know I saw a few newly sleeved folks out there, Keeping you in my prayers for a speedy recovery! God is able!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
