AH how has the past month been? any suggestions?

There have been struggles but all the positives make it great! I am down 43+ lbs. the first 48 hrs were miserable (gas pain and nausea) but I woke up that first day at home and felt pretty darn good. My energy has been slow to come back. But I just moved to stage 4 in the book and am getting more calories and feeling a lot better. Heider is very concise and good at what he does--easy on the eyes, too! His office staff is AMAZING. I emailed Tiffany at 530 in the morning one day about acid reflux from hell and had a response by 7 and a RX called in by 9.

I have not once regretted this. Feel free to msg me.

Hi, I'm in Oak Island, the Cape Fear area by Wilmington & Southport

I am in the Cary area and was sleeved on Nov 3 by Dr. Roy at WakeMed; best decision I ever made. Just celebrated by one month surgiversary with a 22lb weight loss and overall loss of 15 inches. I have been blessed throughout the whole process, which for me, started in September. I swear, if it weren't for the fact that I am never hungry and can eat so very little, and the five little incision marks, I wouldn't know they had actually done anything. No complications, no nausea or anything. I was sleeved on a Monday and shopping on Wednesday.

I can so relate, trixietalks! I had my sleeve done by Dr.David Miles in Wilmington, NC in September. I've lost 50 lbs. since then, and also sometimes wonder if he really did anything at all, because I have had zero pain, complications, or nausea! The only problem I had was constipation for about a month from the gall bladder pills I'm taking for 6 months, but even that has since reversed itself.

Sleeve Life is awesome!!
