  • The surgery is no more dangerous than gallbladder surgery. We will be fine. We need to do our part. Follow the directions. Get our heads right. Reach out to support groups / psychologists / forum

  • I thought it would be in January - but I was just scheduled with Dr. Cribbins for Dec. 31 in Plano, TX. I start the pre-op diet in a few days. It will be a happy New Year!

  • I felt the same way. I got the call saying i was approved. The skinny girl inside me started screaming. Oh did i tell you i was approved in 2 days. (In my Wendy Williams whisper). Lol

Down 40 lbs and feeling great! Sleeved 12/16. Back at work and wow what a difference. Updates!!!

Down 39 since surgery 12/23. I am so happy I did this.

Sleeved on 12/16. Down 45 pounds since 12/2. Feeling great. Hardest thing for me is getting protein in and drinking before and after eating. I want to drink so bad after I eat and it makes me throw up every single time. Biggest struggle!

Also haven't been on here in a while! Down 25 lbs since my surgery on December 31st. Down 52 total since the start of my liquid diet on December 17th!! BOOM!!!

You are ahead of me! I was sleeved on Dec. 31 and am down 26 lbs (10 before & 16 after). I am down two full jeans sizes, so am feeling pretty happy!

It's so exciting to watch everyone's progress.

Hi all, jumping on to this thread... My surgery date was 12/23/2013. My weight loss is slow, compared to others. (I know we really can't compare ourselves as we all are different)

35.4 weight loss since surgery and 48.2 total loss from my HW. Also to add, I have not started working out yet and not taking in enough Water as I should. Only drinking 24-32 oz daily. Hope to get better at this very soon. My goal is a 100 lbs loss within 7 months... Hopefully I can get there!!

My weight loss has been slower than others but has been steady. Even when scale doesn't move, clothes fit looser. Try not to compare and just enjoy the process. I think you've done well! I've had to work on increasing calories and water and exercise more. This has increased my results. Good luck!
