Any body got sleeved on their birthday?



Recommended Posts

When I was given a date to be sleeved in may 2013, I told them that it was impossible cos my coworker was on vacation that week. My dept is small and 2 people cannot be on vacation at the same time cos of coverage. The office manager just gave me the calendar and told me to pick a date suitable for me. I tried to avoid being sleeved on my birthday which is June 5th but on second thought, I told myself that this will be the best birthday present that I can give myself. Moreover, I will never forget that date. Yes, I spent my birthday under the knife but not cutting the cake.

Almost! My birthday was friday, the 5th and I am getting sleeved tomorrow. No cake for me, just my liquid shakes! I feel the same - it's a great way to start a new year with a new beginning!

I was sleeved two days before my birthday! My surgery was on July 3rd. It was my birthday present to myself-- a healthier me. Just wish I felt better. Still feeling pretty crappy after surgery.

I was sleeved on 07/03 as well...I'm also feeling pretty terrible. I'm better than I was but it's still just a lot to take in. I'm so sick of broth already that it literally makes me nauseous to smell it. Jello is getting old really fast too. And I'm itching...OMG my incisions are itching so bad! What's going on with u? Any of the same food aversions? What are u doing about it?

I am still pretty miserable. I just have no appetite. I am still pretty nauseas and really only getting Water in at this point. I probably got 1/2 Protein shake down throughout the day but that's it. I'm really hoping this gets better fast. I have three young kids and need to get back to work. Ah!

      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! 😞
