  • Ok everyone, I had my surgery this morning at 11:30 and I feel pretty good right now. There is a little bit of tenderness when I move but other than that no real pain. I think my gallbladder surgery

  • I'm sleeved! Feeling a little sleepy but hardly and pain so far.

  • Kodiesmom - im from georgia...TOTALLY understand where you're coming from! Here, food is life...its at the center of everything we do. That's why nearly every person I know is overweight and obese! Th

Ugh! Poop is my arch nemesis! I'm not sure what I would do in those situations. Sounds ultra gross.

For all the sleevers this week, best of everything to you. I hope they go smoothly and well.

I start my pre op tomorrow... Sort of nervous.

I am also on the 20th. For some reason i cant send you a private message

I sent you a private message... Just need your name.. :)

Keep us posted on your journey. I wish you well and hope for a speedy recovery. Go to the self pay mexico forum. You will find the others that are there for surgery. Good luck

I'm frustrated I have been on the liquid protein diet for 4 days and have only lost 2 lbs.

Don't discouraged I didn't show any weight loss until today and I have only lost 7 lbs and I'm on day 7. It all kinda happened overnight for me. I know that is not much but my Dr didn't seem to worried about me loosing much weight before surgery. Good luck and keep your head up.

Getting sleeved first thing in the morning. I'm not so nervous about the surgery, but more about missing food. But I just keep thinking about all those who have been sleeved before me in here who have posted that its the best thing they've ever done. Good luck to all the other March 11 sleevers!

Has anyone heard of being able to receive a card from your doctors saying you had bariatric surgery and you are allowed to eat from the childrens menu? When you are ready to eat that is. Someone was telling me about it and I dont want to stroll into my dr office like an idiot asking for a "special" card.

they gave me one and it has all the info on it about not to take aspirin or anti-inflammatories and not placing the ng tube with out direct endoscopy. other side of the card reads "the owner of this card had had weight loss surgery, which has reduced his/her stomach capacity to less than 3 oz. please allow him/her to order a smaller portion or make a selection from the childrens menu. thank you for your cooperation" i dont know if every dr. gives these out but mine did.
