I started a 'secret' May 2012 Sleevers group on Facebook, if anyone wants to join me on there. Figure we can all keep in touch & chat with each other!

It is secret group, which means that nobody can see the group, nobody can see the members & nobody can see the posts.

I know some of us haven't told all our facebook friends & may want to keep it that way for now. So made it secret.

Now to add you, you have to be my friend, so if you want to friend me then look up Sharon Ivanauskas, also send me a message saying you want to joint he May 2012 sleevers group, so I know who you are!

Hi guys. I was sleeved Monday morning at 10 am, and discharged from the hospital the next day at noon. I'm doing well. Walking every hour or so, got in all my liquids yesterday. I will say this much, day one sucks, especially if you've never had major surgery like me. Pain, nausea, no stomach muscle strength ( and u use those to laugh, cough, sit up, lay down!!!). But it does get better every day so keep your eye on the prize! Today I get to add in full liquids like yogurt and creamed Soups. I don't know how much I'll b able to get down but I've been on just Water and propel so far so I'm excited for change. Good luck to everyone!

MG - we're sleeve sisters! I was sleeved on Monday too! I'm doing much better than I thought I would at this point.

I'm on clear liquids for 2 weeks & then "full liquids" for weeks 3-6, puréed/soft for weeks 7-12, then "small bites" of regular food as of week 13.

:) Yeah I guess all doctors have different diet requirements. I was allowed to add full liquids at day 4, Protein Drinks at day 7. I'm excited about full liquids but worried it won't go down. Even propel is tough sometimes!

If anyone wants to join our 'secret' Facebook group for May 2012 sleevers, just friend me on Facebook!

Sharon Ivanauskas

Then post here or PM me or something to say you are a May sleever & I will add you to the group!

We have several members already & it is nice to chat with each other!

Oh & the group is secret, so nobody can find the group if they search, nobody can see the posts & nobody can see the members.

I kept it that way as not all of us have told all our friends on facebook!

Monday the 21st for me! I have to admit, I'm a lot freaked out, but I know this is the best choice for me.

I was sleeved May 9th in Gilbert, AZ with Dr. Schuster. I had the best experience as far as hospital care but my first day and night were the worst. After that it gets better every day :) I've lost 32 lbs since pre op - 3 weeks ago!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
