4/16/2012 ????

Had my post op appt yesterday and was cleared for full liquids and soft foods! I was down 21 lbs! I am thrilled! My blood transfusion complication numbers are almost back to normal as well. My husband and and I celebrated with 2 oz of lobster bisque! I have no regrets!

I'm 4/21/2012!

Dropped slightly more than 10lbs now.

I've been struggling, one day feeling good, the other feeling really weak...

Like today, was going to collapse while walking..

I really have no appetite to get any food in... :(

Cant find any buddy to meet up in Singapore.. Was hoping to get some support from this forum!

Cheers everyone!

I was sleeved on the 19th but won't know how much I have lost until the 30th. It has been a tough week and still sore.

Hi babypumas! I was sleeved on the 19th too. I'm feeling pretty good. It seems like one day you'll wake up and notice how good you feel. It just gets better and better each day. Hang in there! Keep up on your meds and keep resting.

Thanks, I am taking it one day at time and trying to rest as much as I can while the kids are in school but I am so glad I did this.

Welcome and congrats on your surgery. It is like that in the beginning. I feel like that sometimes, but less so now that I am almost one month. You really need to watch your Fluid intake. Make sure you are getting all of your Water. And take it easy. Take naps when you need to. It's major surgery, so it will take awhile. Good luck to you! Best wishes.

Sleeved 4/24. Released from hospital today. Resting, walking, and sipping.

Hi April Friends! :)

Sleeved the 3rd... so I'm 23 days post op! :)

Starting Weight: 271.2

Weight as of Monday (4/23): 249.8

Pretty excited! :)

Congrats to everyone!!!! Hope everything is going good for everyone! :) I think things are slower than what I was expecting. I was sleeved on the 3rd & have lost 18.3 lbs. I am thankful for every pound, but it seems to be coming off slow.
