    Who is your surgeon? I went through LVHN Weight Management and have chosen Dr. Bourse to do my sleeve.

    Not bad! I'm deff sick if Protein shakes already though. Can't stand them. Still a little sore at the main incision site but only if I really laugh or try and lay on my right side. Which sucks since I'm a side/belly sleeper. lol.

    Not sure how much if any I have lost post op and I'm not gonna check till I go for my two week at the Dr office. My plan is to not look at the scale unless I'm there. Hopefully I can stick to that.

    I drink Protein Shakes everyday now, and have for the past two years so I am hoping my love for them does not change post op. I am scheduled for surgery 10/10/16.

    I feel the same as you about the scale. I have been ruled by it my entire adult life. Once I have surgery, I am going to give to my sister so it is out of my place. I belong to a group on FB and so many people are obsessed with the scale. The minute they don't see it move they talk about how much they regret their sleeve. I actuLly feel bad that they are so focuses on that number.
