Just looking for people on the same date!

so sorry when did they reschedule it for sweetie

canceled

February 17th

Need to fast again and hope for no "blizzard" feeling down and out almost like it's a sign I shouldn't have it done. Feel Defeated!

Don't feel that way. Many of us on here had delays, cancelations etc but everything eventually turned out fine. Like me, I had to wait 4 months for surgery after being approved.

Hey all 1/15 ers! How is everyone? I did my checkup yesterday and yes I've only lost 8 lbs, but I'm optimistic and should be off BP medication next week! No more prescriptions for me!

dar81, my date got date got moved back and forth 3 times. I just kept telling myself that it was the universe lining up my dream team. The right surgeon, nurses, anesthesia folks, surgery techs, check-in girls!!! Everybody who was meant to be there and work with me, my dream team all needed to be in place, not sick, back from vacation, well rested, in a good mood, on point etc etc etc 'Dream Team 15!!'

It will happen for you! Your dream team is being assembled as we speak!

@@downsizingdiva,

Team 15, is doing great. First post-op on Monday. I think I'm down 13# but 21 since I decided to really go through with the surgery. I'm sporadically taking my BP meds, I can tell I don't need them. I'm tolerating all foods well except real spicy stuff and raw onions. I'm great at getting the protein in, but water and hydration is a challenge. I'm so focused on the protein because I've decided I'm not taking biotin and I want to keep my hair!! It's pretty. Lol I'm working on my exercise regime. Walking on the treadmill is great but I wanted get outside too Seattle and is about to get REAL wet. I found a Zumba class and a water HIIT class if you can believe it! Ppl are talking about forever diets. I'm tryna find my forever exercise program!!

Hey how is everyone today make 3wks post op for the most of us...as for me I'm down 25 pounds from my highest weight of 233 and feeling pretty good....did 30 mins on the elliptical yesterday and went back to work this past Tuesday..overall I'm feeling pretty good

I'm good only down 9 pounds not sure why but I'm just thankful to be doing so well with no complications.

Had surgery on Thursday the 5th

Feel like my stomach is in constant fire. Shooting pain in right side can't tolerate pin meds cause it makes me sick with dry heaves. Only positive since jan.13 fasting on and off cause of rescheduled procedure I have went from

267 starting to

244 current

Now I need pain to go away and healing to happens so I can exercise!

Surgery was 1.13.15. In doing fine. On soft foods now and at a stall with the scale but still lossing inches so im guessing its water weight or something.. Going to gym everydsy and walking alittle over a mile.. Hoping to see the number on the scale go down soon tho. Lost 30lbs so far.

I gained 2 pounds ????! I am having so much trouble with the protein! I have tried so many flavors and unflavored. I just want to throw up every time. I barely eat anything, and I drink all my fluids. I need to work on meal plans but I don't know where to start. Every time I call my nut she is never in. I am feeling down, and thinking maybe the sleeve is not working on me ????

I've only lost 9 I don't understand.can you tell me what you're eating.

When I got home from the hospital I only did a little broth, boullion cubes, or green decaf tea. I couldn't do isopure because they tasted terrible to me. I could not consume a lot at all. I was also sick to my stomach and it sometimes hurt to eat.Sugar free popsicles was what I sucked on the most because after one or two bites of broth I was full or did not feel good. That was the first week. Second week was tomato soup with potein powder in it. Split pea soup organic with protein powder and pureed. Ate some tomato did sugar free popsicles tea and very little split pea. Third week coffee with sugar free fat free flavored creamer, stevia, and protein powder in it for breakfast. water and I made soup with tofu cabbage onions fat free low sodium beef broth mushrooms and Korean hot red paste to make it spicey. Basically doing a lot of soups. At night I drink chamomile tea to relax. I also used to be a sweet lover.It was my daughters 8th birthday and I took a bite of her birthday cake and was sick to my stomach.It was too sweet. Also lots of different smells make me sick. I get full very quickly and am learning to try and stop before the bowling ball hits my stomach.
