April 26th here! Woo Hoo! Ok....I'm excited but also getting more nervous as it gets closer but I know it's normal. I worry about missing food. I am so used to eating massive quantities of food and I think, in a weird way, I am going to miss that at times. It's weird. But, that is also the reason I am doing this....so I CAN'T eat massive quantities of food!!!!!

Had my surgery April 13. so I am now 4 days post op. No nausea and am really surprised it was not as difficult as I expected. My tummy is sore, but I am not having any problem getting my fluids in. I will work on getting more Protein next week. Congratulations and best wishes to all of us starting this journey to a healthier, happier, can sit on the floor and get up life! Renee

I was sleeved April 8 by Dr. Almanza in TJ.

Home to my own bed on April 11.

I have had no issues getting fluids in. The site where the drain was leaked up til last night. I let it air with the butterfly bandaid.

I worked from home last week and back at the office yesterday (Monday) tired when I got home.

My one stitch site is sore (from drain) but for the most part I feel good.

OK my April 11th friends, we have just a little over a week left... Makes me was to break out in song!

To the tune of.....

I'm So Excited

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

Seriously, I am very excited, no second thoughts even though my Hubby was saying "Are you sure you want to do this?" when he realized I won't be able to go out to eat for a long time which is our favorite thing to do.

I am just curious how mu stomach is going to come out in all of this. I had a Tummy Tuck 3 years ago and they tighten your stomach muscles. I got rid of the "Over hang" but since the 3 years the top part is bulging. I hope the tightening stayed.

Only real concerns I have is my thighs have gotten big and harbor tons of cellulite. I am really concerned how they will come out in all of this.

I have read a lot of the journeys on this forum and the people that say they are pain free or greatly reduced pain are the true inspiration for my journey. I live with a lot of pain on a daily basis and to be able to wake up for even a few days pain free at any given time is going to be a God Send!

ROFL!

That's awesome! I'm also an April 11th sleever!

On the way to the airport before my surgery I was singing.....

"Leaving,,,,,,on a jet plane!

Won't bring my tummy back again!

Lord, I love to see it go!"

What kind of whackos ARE we?! Lol!

Hope all is going well with you post surgery!!! I know I feel FANTASTIC!

Christal

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
