Hello,

I am looking for a sleeve buddy.

Josie

I'm from Toronto, scheduled for Sleeve at Toronto Western on June 26th. When's your surgery?

Sorry for the late response, I have not been on this site in a while. How was your surgery ? I hope it went well

Hi JosieMac,

Surgery went well, and so was the recovery. Still had two incisions that were taking a while to heal, but otherwise been back to work for 3 weeks and started at the gym regularly about 10 days ago. I hired a personal trainer for the year, 2-3 times per week, to ensure I am making the most of this journey.

So far down 64 lbs since June 1st (27 lbs pre surgery on liquid diet, and another 37 lbs since surgery).

food has been okay, only had one or two instances where either I ate too fast or just a little bit too much...felt heavy chest and watery mouth, but then subsided, So I try to stick to the portions and eat slowly.

How has your journey been going? I'm assuming you had your surgery already, is everything what you expected?

Keep in touch, would love to hear your success!!

Sean

Hi Sean,

I did not have surgery yet. I guess I was not sure it was right for me, but now I am 110 %sure I am ready.

I am glad your doing well, it sounds like you are on the right track, keep up the good work.

Keep in touch, I would love to hear more on your progress.

Josie
