Thank you everyone!!! I'm home. Now, day 8 and feeling great!! Last night I cheated and my body told me in no uncertain terms that it was NOT ok. Take it from me, if you're thinking about cheating? Don't. Anyways, today I was hardly hungry. Had some Soup and yogurt. My body doesn't seem to agree with most Soups as of yet. But my tummy loves yogurt and sf pudding! Allnewme yes I was sleeved with Tami!! She's awesome and so was our other sleeve sister Cindy. I'm so happy I'm sleeved :-) 8 days and down 11lbs!!! Who could ask for more?

I had a little freak out moment right before sending in my deposit. My surgery date is 1/18 and I know I am doing the right thing. Still, I will be glad when it's over.

Allnewme, I'm doing great!! Thanks for asking. I feel just fine, plenty of energy. I'm down 18lbs and I just had my first cup of coffee in two weeks. Needless to say, I'm in a happy place, lol.

Glad to hear that you are feeling good ! I tried so hard not to drink coffee after surgery. I waited over a month but I LOVE some coffee SO I caved and drank some. I am very much a coffee addict, be it right or wrong. I hope that you feel better each day. It is a journey and somedays are rougher than others.

Sleeved yesterday finally! Love Dr A and his awesome dedicated staff. Most weeks they work 7 days a week. We started offnina really sparse room but got moved this afternoon to swankier rooms. Much nicer in these. Surgery was swift, recovery has been painless so far. Today I am off of pain and nausea meds. No throwing up or anything. Slight cough from a dry throat and I am downing some ice chips as we speak. A little discomfort from the gas buttums seems to be helping.

In all a great experience! We get discharged early tomorrow. Can't wait to get in my own bed.

I would recommend Dr A to anyone in a heartbeat. It's not about the. Money, it's about the experience. He and his staff are really personable and warm. Down to Earth.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
