My surgery is scheduled for October 16th but yesterday he asked me if I was ok to possibly moving it to October 2nd...either day is fine with me cause I'm just so excited about the opportunity....best wishes for your surgery I'm sure everything will be just fine, my doctor actually told me the same thing about the recovery being faster.

I was sleeved on 09/06/12, and my surgeon used the robot. I had no physical pain (other than the gas!), and I went back to work in 7 days. Quick recovery!

That's great to hear, happy everything went well...how has your weight loss been going?

I've lost about 16 pounds since surgery, and I'm two weeks out today. I stalled for a few days, probably bc I'm struggling to get in all my water and protein...but it'll get better. I'm amazed at how I'm feeling full after just a few bites of food! Amazing!
