14 WEEKS POST OP!!

I AM JUST LOVING MY SLEEVE!!! I was sleeved on May 3 and have lost a total of 60 pounds including my preop diet! WOOHOO!!! :D I leave on a cruise in 2 weeks, which I have already hit my goal for the cruise!! I haven't weight this little in at least 10 years!!!!

Thankfully I started this with a very thick head of hair, because I have lost alot of hair, I totally feel and see the difference, but the doc put me on some certain Vitamins, so that it will help with the hair loss..

I have only hit a 10 days stall..hopefully by saying that I don't jinks myself..but the whole process has been great!!! There are some days that I don't hit my Protein, I sometimes feel like I should be eating another meal, not cause I'm hungry but to get the extra protein...

I hope everyone is doing well!! Thanks for reading!!!

Way to ROCK THAT SLEEVE!!! :D

Happy cruising!

I was sleeved August 4th . I'm doing ok with pain. My question to you is "did you have problems once you swallowing at first?" I swallow water or any liquid and then I can't take another drink unless I belch. Is this normal and will it go away? Congrats on your weight loss!

Skyblew...Yes!! Seeing you are only 4 days postop, you are still getting the affects of the gas...this will get better each day... I still have gas at 14 weeks, but they should have put you on something to help with it like Nexium of something...but at least the gas is coming up thats a good thing!! Hope everything else is going good for you!!

CONGRATS to you!!!

I was sleeved May 9th and you and I have similiar starting weights. I am happy for you and keep rockin' that sleeve gurl!!

Have fun on your trip!

Congrats!!! Enjoy the cruise! Take pics and make memories!!!

That is so fantastic congratulations. I had my surgery on May 3 too. I'm down 47lbs and loving every bit of it. I also have started to notice quite a bit of hairloss recently. Thankfully, on my side as well I had a thick head of hair. I take Biotin. It doesn't stop the hair loss, but it is to increase hair growth. I hope you have a great time on your cruise. WTG!!

Congratulations!!! :)

RIGHT ON!!! I am so happy for you! I was sleeved May 2 and am down 63 since my pre-op days. I can't believe how much better I feel. Not just physically but mentally as well. I totally hated myself every time I caught sight of my reflection in the mirror. I know I shouldn't be so wrapped up in my appearance but hey...it's part of me. I have had 11 kids and I totally didn't want to look like I had 11 kids! Losing the weight has just made me so much happier. And I know that this time I will be able to keep it off. My sleeve and I are in this together. I basically eat whatever I want to..just small amounts. It is so awesome!

Have a blast on your cruise!! How fun for you!

Living the dream!!,
