Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

My surgery date (VSG) is set for 2/25 (one day before my birthday!) with Dr. Schillingford in Boca Raton, FL if all goes well with the pre-op testing the day before. It's going to be an agonizing 11 hour drive down there and back, so I really hope everything is good. My husband and I are going to go down a day before the pre-op testing so I can take a dip in the ocean. Trying to turn it into a sort of mini vacation, but I'm so nervous!

I have gone from extremely nervous to calm and everything in between. I remain prayerful. I will repost Monday when able to give an update.

Good luck to all the Feb. Sleevers. Counting down and the days are whizzing by. I had my final weigh in Wednesday. Drum roll. I made my goal weight. Lost 15 pounds since 12/27/13!!!! Originally only had 10 to lose but I had a real good New Years Eve and gained 5 lbs. But now I love my Cookies and cream flavored protien shakes. I bought a wok and I live for my 4oz of organic chicken grilled with with spinach and garlic. 5 more days till a new life. Praying for all the Feb. Sleevers. Keep in touch.

I am being sleeved in the same day as you! Good luck!

I'm scheduled to have my sleeve surgery February 10, 2014 in Denton, Texas. Dr Provost is my surgeon. I've started my pre-op diet and doing pretty well so far. Getting nervous but looking forward to dropping the weight and being healthy.

I am officially approved. Surgery date 2-18-14. But scared because I woke up today with 50-75 red bumps all over my torso. At the dr's office now. Hoping this won't postpone my surgery

Anyone with Constipation issues? What are you using?

I'm having the opposite issue since I'm on antibiotics. I just emailed my surgeon to see what he recommends. As for constipation I was told juice plus is helpful. You can also go to your pharmacy and pick up some colace. It takes 24 hours to really work but taking that and drinking a ton of Water helps me.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
