I was sleeved August 2nd...doing great! 45 pounds down so far, got the clearance to eat almost anything on Friday (nuts, alcohol, and carbonated beverages still no-no's). No nausea, no slimies, incisions all healed, no problems except an intense craving for diet coke that is only partly satiated by crystal light..sigh. I love that there is a forum for us August All Stars!!! I am going to have fun reading up on how everyone is doing!!! Glad to be here!!!! ~Jane

So glad to hear from you!! I am so glad I haven't craved my diet coke - I quit caffeine all together at least a month before surgery so I guess my cravings are gone

Jane, so happt for the clearance! And welcome to august sleevers!! Talk to you soon.

Welcome tot he forums. Your weight loss is significant, congrats! I, too, was sleeved on the 2nd but have only lost about 25lbs so far. I say only with my tongue in cheek as I have no complaints. I put on clothes I haven't worn in 12 years today. I'm just glad they're still in style. <laugh>
