Well I'm off to try to get some sleep. Just took my emend. Have to get up at 0330 to be at the hospital by 0530. I hope I don't finally fall asleep at 3 or some ungodly hour. My stomach is a wreck (I think it knows!). Good luck to all my fellow sleevers tomorrow, I look forward to catching up with you all on the other side!!!!!

I was just sleeved yesterday morning at 7:15am & on Sunday evening I drank a bottle of magnesium citrate. My doctor DID NOT tell me to, but I wanted to "cleaned out" it didnt kick in for 3 hours. Then it was just watery. Probably because the last two days I just had Protein drinks.

I could not sleep the two niggts before at all either. But for me, I've been one of the "lucky" ones. No major issues! I did have an reaction with my i.v. though. My arm swelled up in the needle spot the size of a tennis ball! I guess the vain was real small and it didn't get in The right spot. I did have gas pains, but only hurt when I TRIED to drink!!! My tummy is sore but that's been a cake walk for me! I have walked several times around the nurses station and that has helped a lot!!! One other thing I 've not heard on here is that it's hard to pee. I haven't drank but one&a half oz. Of beef broth and did it to fast & got sick. So the only oth fluids I've had jave beem through the I. V. I finally voided about an hour ago! I have NOT HAD BUYERS REMORSE yet. Praise God!!! On my 2 week pre-op diet that was low carbs , I lost a total of 13lbs!!!! Hope this helps calm your nerves. I will pray for you and the rest of the JUNE SLEEVERS!!! Stay blessed!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
