    I was sleeved on the 21st. All is well. I am down 19 lbs as of today. I feel good. I am getting my protein in and most of my water. I am sooooo happy I made the decision to have my sleeve!!

  • A little slow, but my surgeon just put me on a low carb diet, which I'm comfortable with, so I'm hoping it picks up very soon. HW-290 SW-229 CW-205

  • Sleeved 10/21 not losing as fast as some but thrilled with my progress Hw 250 SW 236 CW 207.5 I bought two pair of jeans today... one a size 14 and one size 12 (the 12's run small but who cares)?

My name is Kelly and I'm on the 22nd at 1pm.

I totally will not be sad to see the last thick vanilla or choclate shake go down tonight. I've made it 15 freaking days..no slips and Ive been making my family dinner each night, and lunch some days. A lot of food has passed threw my hands. Various smells have dirven me crazy..garlic, cheese, chili dog casarole..to name a few.

What we have ALL achieved up to this point is awesome and nothing short of amazing! Lets find a way to be nice to ourselves for a treat before we all go in to the hospital this week!

For me, I got my old laptop working again so that I can have one last hot bath for a few weeks. I like to watch a movie or show while I'm in there..so that will be my be nice to myself for all the willpower and hard work it took to make it to this point!

This post is my first time using this site while using a real pc! Ive never seen half of this stuff! :D

I'm the 22nd as well at 7:30am. Can't wait!!

Hello All:

My name is Bonnie. I am the 22nd @ 9:30 as well.

This is my 10th day of Protein shakes. I have to admit that a couple of french fries fell in my mouth today. BUT I have a really good excuse TOM. I was good the other 9 days, but TOM made me do it. I am in so much FN pain and I can't take Advil before surgery. (Sorry for the RANT).

I wish everyone the best of luck. This week will be very exciting for us all.

So, I'm curious, my surgery packet says I can have Gatorade up to 4 hours before surgery. Anyone else told this? I'm thinking it may be because I'm not having my surgery until 1 in the afternoon.

Bonnie, why are you in pain? From the fries or other issues?

Tylenol doesn't work for you?

Interesting. My surgery is 9:30 AM and I am nothing by mouth after midnight. I have always heard it is nothing by mouth 8 hours before surgery.
