I was also Jan. 7th. I was a revision band to sleeve. I have lost 31 pounds. I feel great and can eat pretty much everything with no problems.

I was sleeved Jan 7th. I had some complications with the surgery and spent 4 days in ICU. I'm down around 33 lbs. I stalled for about 10 days on week three. I'm feeling great now. I still have some trouble eating Protein sometimes, but it's getting better. Learning to eat slowly is a challenge. I'm making sure to get in 80 grams of protein and my calories seem to average about 750 now. My doctor does not give guidelines for calories or carbs, so I'm at a loss in those departments. He wants us to listen to our bodies. I have been walking a lot but can't seem to push myself much harder than that.

I am sorry to pry, but what type of complications did you have?

When I came back up after surgery, my blood pressure was extremely low. They took me back down to the OR and I had to have a second surgery. They had nicked an artery. After the second surgery, my blood pressure was low again. The were giving me blood transfusions, but the doctor came in and told me I was going to have to have a third surgery. They were going to have to cut me open and possibly need to remove my spleen. I was back in the OR and at the last minute my blood pressure started to come back up. YAY! No surgery was needed. The doctor had ordered a coagulant to go with the blood but it did not arrive at the same time. I picked this doctor because he was at the best hospital in Seattle. You just never know.
