I am scheduled to have my sleeve done on October 6th (started the process on March 1st, 2015.) I'd love to have a "surgery buddy" who is having the procedure the same day or very close to the date. Anyone interested?

Congrats. ???????? so happy for you. I go to the doctor on Friday for my 8 week post op. I am hoping he will give me some ideas on what to do with my slow weight loss.

Thanks SD. I have worked very hard to lose this weight. Some people think that having WLS is the easy way out. That is so far from the truth it makes me laugh. ????. SD let's see a picture

Well how did it go?

Hi, everyone. Had my 2 week checkup. Been released to go back to work. Have lost 10 pounds since surgery. Not a huge amount but since I lost a lot on preop I am happy with it. I am getting my energy back and finally get to eat some meat! Overall I have had a great recovery and seem to tolerate everything I have tried so far. Am so glad to be on this side of surgery. Doing the happy dance.

That is super Marcia! Congrats and welcome to meat

Way to go Marcia! Glad you are doing well.

Just left Dr..I'm doing awesome..I am 65% closer to my goal!!!! I feel amazing. So glad I did this.

This will be me tomorrow evening ????

Had my 8 week post op check yesterday. Lost 27.7 lbs in 8 weeks???????? so happy. The lap band revision to sleeve surgery was the best choice. I feel so much better. I am in the onederlands.

Does anyone have a list of the daily nutritional amounts we should stay at. Like I know my protein is 80 grams a day. I am looking for carbs & sugar & fat, maybe fiber too.

I would like to know that also. I will ask my nut

When you get an answer please share. Does everyone still have to have follow up appointment still? I went for my 8 week post op on Friday and my doctor told me that was my last appointment unless I have any problems. I was expecting many more,maybe because with the lap band I was always going for adjustment.
