August 19

Anyone getting sleeved on August 19 or around that time?? If so who's doing it and where are you going? I'm getting sleeved by Dr. Aceves in Mexicali . Would like to keep in contact with people getting sleeved around the same date always better to have support from people who are going through the same thing at around the same time :)

    I'm also getting sleeved on August 19. I'm having mine done here in Northern Michigan by Dr. Nagle. I'd love to be surgery buddies. Do you have to travel far for your surgery?

I got my sleeve on the 20th

I'm a August 19th'er with Dr. Wegner in Memphis' date=' Tn!! Are my fellow future sleevers ready? I started packing my bag today just to be sure I don't forget anything important!![/quote']

Hey, that's my doctor!!! Isn't he kinda hot??? (Ok, off subject...I know) but ill be getting sleeved on Sep. 16th!!! I'm soooo excited!!! How was ur stay at St. Francis???

I had my surgery Aug 26 and recovery is going well, I think. I'm on pureed food, but I think it's hard to get the protein in and keep relying on protein drinks. I've used Greek yogurt, refried beans, ricotta cheese and a few veggies. Sometimes my stomach hurts.... I feel everything go down. Anyone else? Cramping? No nausea and the incision sites are not as painful, so off pain meds. I sure sleep alot...very little energy. I just don't know what's normal.

How's everyone doing three weeks out?

I'm doing pretty well. I'm 47 pounds down, 17 since surgery. Incisions are healing well and I can move pretty freely now. Most of the allowed foods are going down okay but a couple are still problematic. Cottage cheese still hurts and if I don't thin my oatmeal and refried Beans they hurt. I'm looking forward to getting some other types of food though. The shakes are still quite a staple for me but I'm still not quite managing to get all the Protein and Water in.
