I'm only POD #5 and I'm feeling great. Walking, starting to get my liquids in easier, much less pain. When I stepped on the scale this morning it was all affirmed that I did the right thing by having the sleeve. I started crying happy tears because maybe I'll finally be able to live the life I want!! So thankful!

I had my sleeve done June19th. It has been an experience.the first few days were rough after surgery and I'm still adjusting but I am very happy with it. I had lost 15 lbs prior to surgery and have now lost another 20! A total of 35.....well worth it

So if I can ask what was your heaviest weight and starting weight? My heaviest was 317, on the day of surgery I was 305 and today I'm 297 :) I wanna get to 160 I think

I had my lap band removed and converted to gastric sleeve on July 3rd. I have done good on liquids and have not been hungry. I follow up with doctor tomorrow. I have never been one to drink a lot of Fluid in a day so that's my biggest adjustment and I still have not found a Protein Shake that like. Good luck to you and I look forward to stepping on a scale now. Best decision I have ever made

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
