Introducing myself!

What's up everybody! I'm Antoinette. I was sleeved on August 19th. I'm recovering well but these staples are annoying the hell outta me. I just came here for support and motivation on my journey. I've been going through a lot in my personal life and could use some positivity. :-) I live in the Dallas area and I'm 29.

How did I miss your post you are the first person that have seen that had their surgery the same day as me. It's 13 days postop for us. How are you feeling? I am great, well I was until I started having this gas pain. Actually I was thrown off, because I didn't know what this was. It feels like contractions or something they way they come and go. I have some gas x at home (what good does that do for me?), so i will be making a quick stop to get some relief.

Hi I'm Melody and my sleeve date is in 10 days ....I'm excited and worried at the same time...am I doing the right thing? I'm on day 4 of my preoperative diet with no cheating.....lost 4 pounds already!!!! Will I ever be able to enjoy healthful food?

Yes! I have learned that you can eat, but just not as much as you use to. So it's important to go through the process if you want success on this journey ????

Hello Antoinette,

Congrats on finishing the first page of your chapter lol..

I can't wait to be in the other side of this long journey of going to doctors appointments, meeting with a psychologist, and attending nutritionist appointments....

Now, I am at the phase of submitting documents to the insurance company for approved.

My day will come in the future, but for now. I will like to send you best wishes on you weight loss journey!!!
