    I was sleeved May 10. Lost 15 pounds on the pre-op diet and 21 more since. Feeling great and no complications at all. Did a 7 mile bike ride this morning and then ate 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast

Wow, u all are doing so great!! My surgery is scheduled for next Tuesday, May 29th. So I'll make it into the may loser's club by just a few days. I can't wait!

I was sleeved on May 16 and I am down 9 lb from surgery plus 13 lb preop for a total of 22 lb.

I was sleeved May 15. I didn't do a pre op diet but I'm down 12 pounds since surgery. I still feel a bit bloated! I know this is weird but I feel like I should have lost more! Oh well...patience has never been my virtue.

Sharon would love to join, I am getting sleeved May 29th. Nervous but excited too! I will send you a friend request.

That is me!

Anyone else want to join our 'secret' facebook group?! We have about 50 members now, it is great!

It is a secret group so nobody can see the group, nobody can see the posts, nobody can see who are members.

Just search for me & friend me... Sharon Ivanauskas.

Then I will add you to the group!

Don't forget me Sharon x

Sleeved on Monday (5/21). I have to admit that while I know I did the right thing, I feel awful. My surgeon went so far as to say my recovery has been atypical. I spent most of surgery day and the day after vomiting, spent three nights in the hospital instead of one and I'm still having trouble getting more than 3-4oz of fluid down in an hour. I know it's all for the best and that this too shall pass, but ugh! My new mantra is "one sip at a time".

Glenda... sorry, forgot to add you, just added you now!!!

Leusch... sorry you are feeling yucky. Just keep on drinking the fluids & you will get there eventually.

i was sleeved May 10th!! starting weight was 331 , day of surgery weight was 303 and when i went to my 1st week follow up i am down to 290!!! I havent seen the 200's in YEARS!!!!!!! Sharon that is awesome that you started a facebook page for May Sleevers!!! I'm going to friend you right now!!!

Got my Sleeve on 5/22. Day 3 hardly any pain but having a hard time getting in all the liquid. If I drink more than 2 sips I get nauseous. Lost 38 lbs preop but still afraid to weigh now, still puffy

That is me!

Hi Sharon! I just friended you too. I'm Alexandra Kalmanofsky...

I was sleeved may 17th and havent had my first post up visit yet, but i did lose 16pds pre-op. My booty is completely gone, so something must be going right. Good luck!
