M scheduled for my surgery April 26th and I was curious to see who else would be walking in the shoes of April with me. Tell me how you feeling? What's on your mind? Any worries? Second thoughts?

Sorry If I haven't posted a msg right after surgery, but I just wanted to let very one know I'm doing well... Didn't have any electronics for a few days but I do now!!!

GO APRIL SLEEVERS WE DID IT, together!

Glad to hear it!

Congrats to all the April sleeves!! Let's keep each other updated on our progress as we continue our journey together!!!

I had a gastric sleeve done April 24' date=' 2012 at Cabrini Hospital in Alexandria, Louisiana. The day of surgery I went in at 283.5. Today, Sunday, April 29, 2012 I'm at an even 267 ! I think that's a little artificial because oven been on a strict clear liquid diet since last Sunday. My guess is it will keep dropping but slow down after I start in on the mush then solid food. The good news is that prior to the procedure I was taking on the order of 70-100 units of insulin, 20mg of glimiperide, and 2 50-1000 jamumets a day to keep my glucose below 200. This morning 155 and no insulin needed! That made the whole process worth it right there![/quote']

That's amazing!! I myself was on jamunet and am ecstatic to say I'm off my meds too!!! That's is well worth it!

Congrats Jimmy and all other April sleevers!! We did it - Yea! 8 days postop here and doing good - diarrhea today and feel full with nothing in there

6 days post op and doing so well, its scary!!

Hey, I was wondering about you! Glad to hear you are out and ok. Keep in touch!

Hey 7 days post op and head hunger is killing me. Hoping it goes away once I am back at work to much time on my hands lol I am healing really well hardly anymore pain

So what's everyone eating I am totally confused what to be eating and how much I should be eating

I'm 13 days post op and still on clear and full liquids. So, it takes a full day to try to get down 60-80 grams protein and 64oz water/beverage. I'm hoping when I call in to the dietitian on Thursday that she will advance me to puree foods.

Woohoo! Well done Us. As one of the later April sleevers (26th) I am so glad to be on the other side. Many many thanks to those who trail-blazed the way for us and give us latecomers lots of good advice and support. What happens to our band of merry April Sleeve Buddies now? Do we move to the the Post-Sleeve section under April 2012 or do we continue communicating here?

I'm off to have my ramekin of Weight Watchers (it's thinner than normal) tomato soup, eaten with a teaspoon, of course:) x
