Is anyone interested in a secret group on Facebook? I find FB easer to use then this app and it would be a great way to keep up with all November sleevers. Also secret groups are completely private so your FB friends will not see anything you post or even know that you are in the group.

Yes, I am interested! My date is Nov. 17 and with the pre-op diet plan coming up, my anxiety, preparing for THE day, etc., it would be wonderful to have support of those going through the same thing especially at the same time.

Hello. I'm an October Sleever actually. Just joined this site today. I am 8 days post-op from Lap-Band to Sleeve Conversion. My doctor was able to do both at the same time, thank God! Things are going well so far just tired of the liquid diet, ready to move on. My post-op visit is next week, really looking forward to finding out how much I've lost, decided not to purchase a scale to keep from over-obsessing about the weight. I feel pretty light though, Lol! I'm at home another week so if anyone has any questions about my experience, I'm free to chat.

Congrats!! Did you take 2 weeks off? Do you feel ready to go back to work? I am taking 2 weeks but my surgeons office just told me 2-4 depending on how I feel. I don't get paid time off so I want to return ASAP but I don't want to be unrealistic either! :)

Hi Yes I am taking two weeks and a few days. Not sure if I'll be ready to go back when time. I ventured out today to the nail salon because I got tired of laying around but was exhausted by the time I got back home. Didn't do anything but sit for mani/pedi. I know I'm not getting all of my liquids. It's easier said than done especially with trying to get all the Protein in and the Multivitamins and prescribed meds. It's overwhelming. I'm not going to complain though, I know the end result is going to be great!! :)

I'm scheduled for 11/24. I will also be having my gall bladder removed. Hope that added surgery doesn't prolong recover -- I'm scheduled to take 2 weeks off...... I'm very excited and am looking forward to the new lighter me!

I had my gallbladder removed a few years ago...I recovered very quickly and didn't need any pain meds once I got home. It's recovering from anesthesia that takes a while, so you will be doing that anyway with your WLS. Good for you, getting it removed at the same time!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
