I was sleeved June 17.. From St. John's Newfoundland :-)

Hope your recovery is going well! Were you sleeved in St. John's? I'm in CBS and I'm travelling to Mexico in September to be sleeved...CAN'T WAIT to see what my inner skinny person looks like ;)

I'm getting ready for my surgery on October 30th--I'm an Island girl who would love to connect with any other PEI sleevers!

I'm in Halifax! Definitely looking for connections and support. Local would be great, but it's comforting just knowing there are other East-Coasters out there too! (Sometimes don't you feel like you're the only one???)

Drop me a line if you want to! :)

I posted here on October 8th but I thought I would update my progress. I had the vertical sleeve surgery on April 29 here in Halifax by Dr. Elsmere (what nice man) and I was sent home May 1st after being progressed to stage 3 diet. It's been tough trying to get the liquids they want me to have each day. I understandably have some discomfort when anything hits my stomach. Moving around has not been a problem although the staples in the incisions gross me out LOL. I know things will get better with time :)

I am having my vsg done in Bathurst by dr semerjian. I see the anesthesiologist on November 13! I'd love to have the surgery before Christmas. I am most nervous about the 2 week pre-op only boost and going to work everyday will be hard!

losinforlife - Good luck on your surgery :)

I have been doing great since mine. I have lost 150lbs and have dropped 3 sizes in bottoms and 2 sizes on top (I am self-conscious about my loose flesh so I keep my tops loose).

      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
