Newly single, newly sleeved, New me .. I am looking for other single sleevers out there to talk about single life, before during and after the sleeve. Maybe a place were us singles can come together and talk about whatever who knows maybe Someone can find love.. In a loveless world. So if you are single and out there lets hear from you..

Okay my fellow singletons, not sure if it has been mentioned here before but there are a couple of groups on facebook that might be of interest. The first link requires approval for access but I think the second does not. The groups do not appear to be sleeve specific, just WLS.

If for some reason posting this is not allowed here and the links are removed, just message me and I will pass them on again.

Oh and I am beyond single, 45, childless and in Texas.

I am writing to report that I am no longer single. Not sure if its because of the weight loss or the Multiple changes that have happened over the last 2 years. The weight loss journey has taught me so much about myself that it makes me a better man and a better partner. I must say that i am truly happy with my girl, we have a deep understanding of each other and she had no problem with my surgery or me having multiple sclerosis . Its nice to find a person who respects and loves me entirely. To all the single sleevers i just want to say that there is hope and you all will find the right person. Somebody should make a group for people in new relationships for advice giving, just a thought.

A paramedic....wow that sounds fun' date=' thrilling and exciting! Bet you have some awesome stories.

Don't worry about what not to eat too much. It's good to be aware of them things, but realistically I couldn't get them in anyway. 3 bites of cottage cheese and I'm full. lol. My thing has been I forget to eat/drink. That blows me away! food is no longer a priority for me...it's become very secondary.

My diet consists of.... cottage cheese, mozzerella cheese, Protein shakes, sugar free pudding/jello, soaked peaches/pears/apples (no skin), tuna and salmon in Water only, and sugar free water enhancers (several flavors). Oh and beef / chicken broths warmed. Broths were great first week.[/quote']

Thanks for the tips! I have a bunch of broth packets. I have no problem with water. It's the unknown I think. Some people do fine, others have a lot of discomfort. I guess we will wait and see!!

And yes... I do have some REALLY good stories!!

Awesome!! As long as you are happy with your changes and who you have become who cares what the reason is that you found love?!

I'd enjoy hearing some. Be careful with vegetable broth, It didn't work for me. Warm chicken n beef did. I made some ground turkey and chewed very well. It was great!!

Single in Las Vegas! I'm also getting sleeved on 3/4/13!! I can't believe it's almost here!

Hi Nikki, today is/was your day. Wondering how your doing? Hope all went and goes well. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for checking in Kimo. The procedure went well... No complications. Waking up from anesthesia was a rough experience for me this time around. My procedure was around 10 and I made it into my room at 1. I was really groggy for the first few hours.

The pressure and discomfort is the worse. It's not really a pain... Just uncomfortable.

I got up and walked around 2 and have been doing it every hour. I have dry mouth SUPER BAD!! Bad enough that it literally made me throw up when I walked. I've been trying to sip as much as possible. Luke warm Water goes down easiest.

I just won't up from an hour of dilaudid induced nap so I'm sipping and doing my spirometer.

Hopefully I can go home tomorrow. I honestly don't see why I wouldn't be able to!

How is everyone else??

Yes 2 more days! I'm so nervous lol

How are you doing?!!

Yes 2 more days! I'm so nervous lol

Good thank you.

I am only required to do an overnight stay. I'm going to be able to be a lot more comfortable at home since I'm pretty independent anyway. No swabs for me but I am trying to sip. However I can only get in 3 before my stomach cramps.

My BFF is helping me on Tuesday and I have various other people stopping by during the week.

Who helped you when you were home?
