Yep! From Frankfort. Who did your surgery?

There is a group on this forum called "Sleeved in the Bluegrass". Unfortunately, it's not very active.

Had no idea there was another one, ha. I am from Elizabethtown but I traveled to Lexington because I heard nothing but good things from that group. I got sleeved at Saint Joseph East- Center for Weightloss. How long have you been Post-Op?

I was sleeved in March 2012. Reached goal around New Years. Had no complications, never hit a stall. I went to Dr. Weiss of Bluegrass Bariatrics.

Wow no stall, that is awesome! How much weight did you end up losing altogether. I have lost 16lbs so far in the past 8 days and had my surgery on Monday. Since I got

Home on Tuesday I have lost 10 though, must of had a lot of Water built up. I would like to reach my goal by May 2014 which would be 119 more pounds. I am currently 259.

I was sleeved feb 5 in bowling green ky. My dr is with bluegrass bariatrics as well. Dr nwanguma. I am very pleased so far and am so excited to be starting this new chapter in my life! I feel very blessed for the opportunity. My high weight was 254 245 pre op and 228 at my one week check up! I'm so proud! My only complaint is I am having trouble getting comfortable enough to sleep well at night.

Are you having to sleep propped up? I noticed I can only sleep for about 5 hours at a time now and end up being wide awake. I can sleep on my side as long as I am not having issues with heartburn.

Yes propped up. I start in bed and end up in recliner. Im a side sleeper and still too tender to sleep on side. Laying on my back is giving me back pain. It is a little better. I suppose it just takes time. I am taking 6 weeks off work so it's not that big of an issue right now.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
