    Here waiting too! Excited but scared. It was hard saying bye to my kids this morning. There's no turning back now! I'm doing this to make sure I'm here to raise them. I'm really emotional right now.

    Oh yeah, I'm missing food. I dream about food almost every night. I'd sure love a slice of pizza, but I just keep telling myself this post op diet isn't forever I will be able to enjoy food again, but

The diet im on sucks! Seems like I have alot more restrictions than everyone else..i want meat..lol!

I am still on full liquids! My doc won't move me until I get in the required amount of Protein.

I was sleeved Wed.' date=' March 6 . . .please make sure it is what you want to do[/quote']

Lol. I was feeling the same way and was really regretting surgery. They didn't tell us the true story of taste buds changing. I couldn't even drink Water. I am now two weeks into surgery and feeling a bit better but what a tough road trying to get Protein and fluids in

How are you feeling?

It has been FOUR weeks everyone! Congrats and I hope everyone is doing well :)

Yes.. on to soft foods. Not a big step up from puree but I'm so excited! Has anyone had a weight loss stall?. A friend of me is a year out and told me it happens all throughout the progress, but I feel it's too early. Maybe I'm just impatient...

I had a slow down in week three (lost 1 lb) but broke through and this last week, the fourth week, lost 6.6! I'm down 33 now.

I'm eating lots of different things and my sleeve really hasn't rejected anything (well, it didn't love mashed potatoes but that was it). I have to really really concentrate on eating slowly. That's the hardest for me especially eating w/ my toddler when it's more about just getting done before she wants to get down and play. I was on purees in the Hospital - which sounds a lot different than people here - and now I'm on more solid food. I had an ounce of a turkey burger for lunch today.

I had a stall for about two weeks and last week I lost 3lbs so I'm hoping the stall is over for now...

Just wondering what my fellow sleeves are doing for exercise at this point? I'm walking 30mins a day. I wanted to start doing some weight lifting but was told to wait until 2months out by my dr. Kinda getting bored with walking

Just walking right now myself. Was told the same thing about waiting 2 months. Maybe taking different routes will help.

1 month anniversary you guys!

Hey there! I am down a total of 30lbs. Not sure the total inches but I have gone down a pant and dress size.

Congrats to everyone on their progress so far. Right now I am down 30lbs and one pant size. =)

30 lbs down here lets shoot for 20 more by next month!!

Made it to my goal of 30 in 30!!!! First month was awesome. My goal for mint two will be 20!!

I'm down 20 lbs today! That's counting from the post op diet. I was sleeved 3/27 and 12.2 lbs since surgery. I had a week stall right after surgery and just broke thru this week.

I started exercising this week with 30 mins on the elliptical. My doc said I could start jogging if I wanted and weight lifting so long as it's nothing over 25 lbs.
