I thought I would kick off the fun for August Sleevers! So here we go!!

I am scheduled for Monday August 19th! Let the countdown begin!!

Thanks everyone for the kind words! It really made me feel better! And for all the birthday wishes! My day was great! Went shopping and was down two pant sizes and two shirt sizes! Made me feel great!!!! Feeling better today!!!

Having a WTH have I done to myself day....they come and go...but today I am really struggling! And it's my birthday maybe that's why? I have been super sick the last couple of days so I am unsure why! But I know that's were this feeling is coming from! You'll have good days and bad! Hopefully my day turns Aroind soon!

Happy birthday! I'll keep you in my prayers!

Oh no are you ok!? Just getting on tonight for the first time and seen your post! Praying for you!

I'm still in the ER. Feeling better. They're trying to determine where my nausea is coming from. I believe it's my esophagus. I'll keep you guys updated.

Congrats on coming down 2 sizes!!!

Im in the waiting room wearing this ugly gown lol 1 hour till surgery

Hi ladies! Got my sleeve yesterday! Doing pretty good. Minimal pain. Just tightness. And, some pain if I drink too fast. Trying to remember to sip, sip, sip! Hoping to go home today! :-)

Hope everyone else is doing well!

YAY JULES!!!!! So Happy for you!!!

Got my surgery yesterday morning. Felt horrible for about 2 hours but when I got to my room and was able to walk I felt a lot better. I'm doing so well that if I can keep 4 8oz bottles of water (sipping every hour of coarse) I can go home!!!! I'm so excited

Sorry to hear this doll. Hope you enjoyed your bday! Join the August Sleevers FB page

Well' date=' it's official. I'm sleeved. I just passed my swallow test and have moved up to clear liquids. It sure is hard to sleep in the hospital. Hope I get to go home today.

Praying for all my August sleeve buddies. Wishing you all smooth recoveries.

To my August 19th buddies, hope all went well. One day at a time for recover.[/quote']

Good to hear. Are you with the ny bariatric group?

Hi!! I'm currently in the ER everyone! I haven't been able to keep ANYTHING down these past two days. Not even a sip of hot tea. So' date=' my doc sent me here for IVs and meds. I felt much better after vomiting so many times (sorry...TMI) but I'd be on a road to dehydration if I didn't come. Pray for me!!!

8 days postop -- sleeved 8/12. 30 pounds down since 7/29.[/quote']

Keeping you in prayer! Hope today proves to be better for you.

Sleeved 8/13 by Dr. Schmidt at Hackensack. Down from 280.5 before surgery to 257 in 8 days - 23.5 lbs. tolerating the clear liquid diet well. I see the doctor tomorrow.

Awesome!

Thankfully I don't have to do the all liquid diet. I have to do 2 protein shakes and 2 low carb meals a day. No white breads or refined sugars. It's hard but i know it's nowhere near as hard as all liquids! Keep pushing! We're almost there!

Lol its no fun but will be worth it! Good luck to you. Aug. 26th for me. Counting down!
