AaahRoo! I have a surgery date! I will be sleeved at last by Dr. Fernando Otero on August 14, 2012 at John Muir Hospital-Concord Campus CA. I'm very excited of course!! I'm hoping to find other August sleevers to treck the journey with. I'm so ready to get this weighted ball rolling you just don't know...

I've been putting on weight since the birth of my first child 20 years ago. Things really got out of hand when I seperated from the military in 2006. No limits,No mandatory runs,No mandatory weigh-ins makes Gr8rLuv a very big, bad girl !! Currently, I'm miserable...My joints-Achy wrists,back,hips,knees and ankles. sleep Apnea-I got it, Cpap-I wear it. I can't wait to get back to my normal...BMI,Weight, Activity,Sleep. I've lost enough time...I'm ready for the RESET button!!

Today is the day! At the hospital waiting to be called. Blessings and prayers to all sleeved today!

Tons of luck, wishing you a successful surgery, and speedy recovery!!

Today is the day! At the hospital waiting to be called. Blessings and prayers to all sleeved today!

ok. listen. don't freak out. the pain will subside. start walking the halls asap!!

2 days post-op. And I feel better today than I yesterday. Only getting 3/4 oz of water. But they say that's better than nothing

Happy Saturday to everyone. Only 4 more days until my sleeve day arrives. I am excited! I hope that everyone who has gone through the sleeve has a good, healthy, and speedy recovery. On my way to a new, healthier, and enjoyable 'me'. I hope everyone has a terrific day today. Positive thoughts to all!!

If you're already sleeved does anyone feel hungry?

I'm hungry but scared to eat. I eat a little and I immediately have to use the restroom. Trying to find something I can eat and be full.

I'm hungry sometimes I think. My stomach growls and I do take the antacid pills. Had surgery Aug.14th only ate 158 calories yesterday and 50 oz of water. Seems all I do is drink water. 10 more days on full liquid then soft, so maybe it will get better.

Hello A-Sleevers,

i'm 16 days post op. i am so excited that i graduate to mushies on the 23rd. hey guys this is my first blog. but i can talk my butt off so if ya'll have any questions feel free to ask ...for all you upcoming sleevers. it's really exciting to see 20 lbs gone already geez who woulda thought!!

If you're already sleeved does anyone feel hungry?

I didn't really have much of an appetite for the first few days post op.remember your tummy is still trying to figure out what's goin on!!... my hunger is here now (day 16 since surgery) definitely, i will consume 1/2 cup of soup and then i'm ok.

I was sleeved on 8/14 and don't really feel hungry. When I do, I have some creamy soup or sugar free pudding (something like that) and then I'm ok. Best of luck to you.
