December 2015 or January 2016 sleevers ?



Recommended Posts

My surgery is on the 17th of December - I have a failed lap-band and going for gastric sleeve. Super worried that I will not loose weight ? Or worse not wake up from the surgery

Well it went! They were 1.5 hours late taking me back. It actually helped me to calm down and take it all in. I hate shots and I was the most upset about getting a blood thinning shot into my belly!!

Seeing the operating room was pretty cool. Reminded me of the show my 600pound life. I fell asleep real quick.

Coming out of surgery, the nausea and gas pains are real. Take the pain meds and try to rest. They take your vitals like every 2 hours so not an easy task, but yeah. I took a couple walking stints to try to help relieve it, but the meds worked better.

I can drink Water pretty easily!! That's what I was most nervous about!!

All in all, not too bad. Except for being up at 430am lol

I saw my dr on Dec 1 for my pre-op appointment. After about a week I called my insurance to see if they had any info. They said the Drs office hadn't submitted my info to them. Come to find out my pre certification process changed with my insurance on Dec 1st and the Drs submitted it to the wrong cert department. The old department couldn't transfer to the new company because of Hippa. Ugh. I frantically called my dr (I'm starting my pre-op diet on Monday 21st) for them to re-submit my info to the correct pre cert department. Thankfully less than 24hrs later I have been approved.. Shew!! Starting the pre-op diet being approved is going to make it so much easier (in my mind)

Woo hoo! Early Christmas present for me

      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?
