I'm still pre-op but hoping to schedule my sleeve for mid-September. Just had my endoscopy yesterday and getting ready to submit everything to insurance. Cross your fingers!

Good luck sunshine. Hope it worked out well with the insurance. I have 26 days until surgery and am starting to get very excited.

Hi

I am due to have my op on 3rd September. I am in the UK, though, so don't always recognise the brand names people suggest for Protein stuff.

Pre op diet starts when I am on holiday. 3 pints skimmed milk a day for 2 weeks. Gulp!!!!

Scheduled for Surgery September 1, 2015 with Dr. Maytorena in Tijuana. It is almost here and I am getting anxious and of course a little nervous. Never had any type of surgical procedure before but I am optimistic and positive about going thru with it.

I would like a buddy for sure. I had a friend who was also getting sleeved but she is running scared now and not sure if she want to go thru with it. I am getting it done. Just plain tired of my weight going up and down like a yoyo. I would also be happy to find a live chat room of gastric sleevers to talk with.

How did your surgery go? How are you feeling? I had mine the 2nd.

Mine went, in my surgeon's words, "Perfectly". They sent me home with some fantastic pain meds. It seems a shame to let it go to waste. My surgeon has me on a full liquid diet until my appointment on 9/11. I'm getting sick of Protein Shakes. That, the gurgling stomach, and the minor diarrhea are the only negatives so far. On the positive side, I'm down almost 30# since my all time high.

I had my surgery on September 1, 2015 in Modesto, CA. I was going in for a DS but because of the adhesions they only did the vertical sleeve part. They say they will do the other part once I'm down 80 lbs and still losing but since it will probably be a 6 hour open procedure I'm not sure yet if I'll go for it or not.

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

      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! 😞
