I joined the Facebook Page and posted one time and then noticed that my post showed up in my news feed - I thought the page was private? I freaked out and deleted my post and haven't posted again because no one knows I am having surgery except my husband- I don't want my Facebook friends to see that I am posting to the page. But I read the page everyday and have so much to say and my own questions to ask - how can I participate without everyone knowing?!?!

Hi Novelist,

I had my surgery on the 3rd. Feeling kinda crummy still. Very tired. Very slowly getting fluids in, definitely not the 64 that the dr. wants but hey, I am giving it my best shot here. No signs of dehydration so far, so good. Hope you are doing great! Please update when you have time.

Hi Everyone,

My band to sleeve revision is 12/29. I'm a little nervous as I've been a bander for 6 years and after several miserable months, finally went to my surgeon and found out my band needs removed. I really loved my band and depended on her to let me know when it was time to stop eating.

Anyone else going from band to sleeve? Would love to hear from everyone!

Can someone give me ideas on Protein shakes? After my banding, I couldn't stand the sweet smell of the Protein Shakes. I had a horrible time getting in my Protein until I started eating solid foods.

Let's all keep in touch.

Beth

I've never been banded. Welcome to the sleeve universe. I've had my sleeve 3 months and know a few banded folks. Your sleeve will tell you to stop eating. Trust me! ;)

I used premier Protein shakes from costco. I actually like them a lot. My dietician said they are one of the best out there. I only ever tried the chocolate tho.

Good luck with surgery!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
