  • I am down 20lbs ya'll

  • Surgery was Monday the 5th! Doing really really well! I was home Tuesday evening and Wednesday went to the mall and walked with my mom for about an hour. It's cold and snowy so outside isn't an optio

  • I absolutely refuse to buy new clothes until I am sleeved. I may purchase some cozy jammy pants, maybe a couple of tank tops to wear around the house. That is it. I will waste no more money on this

Loving all these positive thoughts and wishes. My surgery is at 11:30 and it really helps. Happy thoughts happy thoughts!!!!

Just got my time to be at the hospital. 9:00. Whooo hoo! Very excited. I'm sure the nerves will break this evening. I've only lost 6 pounds on the pre diet. Made me a little mad but just goes to show that my body doesn't like to loose weight very well. Can't wait!

The time has finally arrived, surgery is tomorrow. I just finished drinking that dreaded Magnesium Citrate, now I sit and wait for the hours of uncontrollable pooping.

I'm officially sleeved!! As of yesterday I had my surgery. I was naucious last night but today feel much better as I've been walking the halls which helps with the gas pains. Already had my leak test and is came out good so I'm started on 33ml of water for an hour? Having someone here with me is helpful too just to help with compression socks and not having to wait for someone to walk with me.

I'm in the waiting room just waiting. Been here for 2 hours. Hopefully they take me back soon. And I'll be on the losers side. Lost 10 pounds on pre diet. Hw 277 Sw 264 Gw 150. My first post with my stats!!!

Good luck!!

So I was sleeved last night between 6-8...my pain has been pretty bad but perhaps I just have a low threshold or perhaps it was the gallbladder removal. Anyway, I'm home now. They used staples instead of glue on my incisions. Anyone know why they would do this? I never saw my surgeon after the surgery and nobody else could tell me why because he normally does not.

I'm one week and one day out.

Feeling really good considering and I went yesterday for my one week post op!! I broke even on the scale, which they said was normal, most gain so they can tell I've been walking.

HW 325

SW 294

CW 294

GW....they say 140 but I'm 5'9!!

So I just want to be at a good healthy weight for me! I'm off for a 2 mile walk now!!!

Keep all the hard work going!!

Can't wait to see all of our stats changing!!!!!!

Got my date today, January 29th! I will be revising from the band to the sleeve. I'm very excited! Good luck everyone!!

Ok so whatever you do don't order the Vitaleph Shakes. They are wretched! The chewable chocolate probiotics are good but the shakes, so much eww. And no refund or return policy.

My surgeon used staples too, so it must be okay...

No clue. My surgeon used internal dissolve stitches and glue on top and I'm so grateful because I've had no issues. No pain.

Can someone direct me to the January Post Op Forum?

Checked in, labs drawn, waiting to get IV????
