I had my 1-week follow-up appointment today. I'm over 10 lbs down since surgery day (June 15th). They removed my steristrips, said my incisions look good.

As a side note--I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but since surgery I've had bruises on the outside of both legs just above the knee. I figured it was something from the gurney or bed during or after surgery, but I just happened to mention it to my PA. She said that it was from the strap they put across your legs to hold you to the table during surgery, and that they tilt the whole surgical table so you're in almost a standing position during the procedure! I did not know they did that--crazy!

I was sleeved on the 8th and I have been mostly pain free just hungry! I can have eggs Wednesday and I can't wait! Hope you all are getting better everyday too!

I get hungry too. Lots of people post here that they never feel hungry but I definitely do. I don't have any cravings though which is nice. Funny but I'm most excited about eggs too. I was sleeved on the 15th

Had my sleeve 6/22 and came home today. Had minor problems with keeping my oxygen saturation at normal levels right after surgery, so I spent a night in intermediate care (not quite ICU, but more monitoring than on the floor.) Moved to a regular floor after 24 hours, then home. Slightly sore, and working on getting liquid and Protein in.

I said that when they removed my thyroid, my female organs and my gall bladder! It's more the anticipation that made me nervous--not the actual results. I was and am fine without them! Now--on June 30th--most of my stomach! I want the results and am choosing to not concentrate on the loss. But it is a loss and I am told we will grieve it!

I was sleeved on June 9th. I'm down 17 pounds as of today and am mentally prepared for the soon-to-come stall. I just got the okay to move on to soft foods - chicken, fish, eggs... The only big no-no he gave me was raw vegetables/fruit, bread, and rice. I notice that when I'm hungry, I have to eat NOW. When I'm tired, I have to rest NOW. Other than that, I feel great.

...NSV include no longer snoring. My beloved husband is sleeping much better. AND, being able to push to a stand from my weeding stool when I garden.

I pray that I can take full advantage of the honeymoon stage in order to make the major changes in my relationship with food so that I can make this new tool work for me for the rest of my life.

P.S. The veg in my garden have never looked better. I will be able to eat it in about six weeks.

      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!!

      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...
