Congrats, tsmyle! Wishing you a speedy recovery and much success!

Congrats to all the sleevers. I was told in June of this year I was approved for the sleeve. I went thru ALL of the steps. Classes dr appt etc. At the end of everything I was expecting to be in surgery late September early n October. On my last consult I was told I was not a candidate for laparoscopic because of two mesh repairs. I'm in Memphis tn. No dr in Memphis will do an open cut. I was referred to Nashville Tn. I'm disabled and don't have the funds nor transportation. I'm so diss appointed its unreal. Sorry for the long text. Just venting. .....SMH

Hi Tsmyle: yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you made it through just like I knew you would, I know the liquids are hard to get down for now, but sip on your protein drink even if it takes you all day to consume just one. Your intake will increase as your body heals, get some sugar free Popsicles they were a life saver for me. Just rest and when your not resting walk around your house as much as you can, that prevents blood clots. Great job!

hay tsmyle,

Tsmyle: Don't you dare give up! I know it's ruff right know, but trust and believe it will get better. Popsicles does the trick, even if that's all you can do. There is a light at the end of the tunnel:)

Im feeling sooooo much better! Thanks for your prayers. Im still trying to get in my fluids and Protein, but Im definitely able to eat (drink) better than before. The hardest thing for me is the water! And i wish i had more liquid choices, but im thankful anyway! I checked the scale this morning and I believe that i am down 14 lbs already.... That just blows my mind!!! Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.
