Hey! Any one else having their sleeve done around this time? Or any words of wisdom? Does anyone have any advise for me? Current weight 237lbs. I have set a goal of 185 by Christmas. Is this realistic? Thanks! So excited!! Xxx

Best advice I can give it just breath! And don't focus some hon the pounds that you loose as opposed to all the NSV's that you have and inches lost.

I was sleeved on the 16th also and it's definately rougher than I expected. I was nauseous and dry heaving when I woke up til yesterday am...I'm also in a fair amount of pain, was given Tylenol 3 but I don't like crushing them...how is everyone else doing??

I was 15 th. My back hurts and very sore but so far keeping everything down. Been for a walk yesterday. It's easier each day the drainage tube is my biggest issue

Hey all. Overall I'm still really, really tired. I don't have any pain unless I move the wrong way. I was telling a friend that everything just feels so new. I can feel every lil sip go down and it's weird. Now I finally know what people mean when they say they no longer like Water. It's like I can taste every mineral in it…yuck! Today I was able to get in a Protein shake! However, I'm quickly growing weary of the whole sugar free taste of everything 100% apple juice is my BFF right now.

Other than that I'm bored and can't wait to feel normal again.

How's everyone else?
