My surgery was ruff I had complications. My suggestion to you is to walk as much as possible even if it hurts. Always remember why you're doing this even when down. There will be times when you're wondering wth have I done! Do not get discouraged! The dangers of long term obesity is much worse than any gastric complications. Take a good look at your old body because your life is about to change 100%. Congratulations on a huge step towards health!

I had no complications. The only thing that was hard was drinking the Protein drinks. Ewwww but I did it. I still have lots of work but I'm on my way

I live in Gilbert, AZ. Had my sleeve done 6/25/15 by Dr. Fang with the Bridges Center (St. Luke's). Down 24 lbs since surgery and just over 40 since the start of my 2 week preop diet. No complications (so far). I was quite nervous as this was the first time I had surgery in my life, but was very satisfied with my Dr. and the hospital care.

      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!!

      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
