Good luck Pew! My husband and I were sleeved, him on 12/2/13. He has gone from 320 to 240 and still losing. This was the best decision we made for our health and wish we had found it 20 years ago! We actually did go to seminars 10 years before we decided the sleeve was for us. Your life will change forever. You will learn everything you need to know here, so hang onto this group for support. BTW, I would say the surgery, recovery, and past 6 months were 10 times easier than we expected at our age. Best wishes.

Good luck to you!!!! Keep photos as you go through this process. I noticed someone mentioned the flipagram app. You can compile all your photos as you lose weight. It puts it in video type format and you can add music! It becomes a great testimonial as you go through this journey. It is a great motivator as well. I start my journey on June 17th. As you did I will take a pic on my surgery day. It will be my first of many photos as I begin to shrink. :-)

Since I have had nothing but clear fluids for the past 30 hours, I feel ok, however, I feel asleep at 8 with my CPAP machine on. Woke up, wide awake, thinking my alarm clock was going off. However this was 5 hours early.. I hate infomercials... LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
