Any Sleeved Couples out there?



Recommended Posts

Wondering how many couples both have the sleeve?

If so, how far apart were your surgeries?

If not a significant other, then with any family or friends?

My wife and I both were recently sleeved, she had hers in September and I went in October....we decided to go on the journey together and don't have one regret. We also find that we keep each other accountable as well as being each other's support system.

Not yet, but my husband and I are planning on doing it together. I am looking at roughly Jan-Feb surgery date and he is probably a month or two behind me.

My wife and I just had sleeve surgery together 1 week ago. It's a little difficult getting anything done around the house but I'm glad we're going through the same thing together. Thankfully our parents were able to help out for the first week.

My wife and I are about six years apart, her having a DS (which is a sleeve, plus) ten and a half years ago and I had the VSG four and a half years ago (it takes me a while on some things.....)

My husband and I are 10 months apart. He was sleeved first. It's working so well for us, wish I could have made it happen sooner.

My boyfriend and I are both starting this journey together. I should be sleeved in February and him maybe a month or so later. We both can't wait for this change.

My daughter and I both have had the sleeve done. I was Sept 1 and she was Oct 20. She still lives at home with me so it's a great support for both of us.

Wife and I are in the process now, still have about 3 months to go. Her best friend is doing it as well. I am ready for it to hurry up and get here, also can't wait for lake and beach weather. We love outdoors but it will awesome to not be as sweaty and swampy after 3 minutes.

My husband and I had our surgeries a month apart. Allowed me to take care of the kids while he healed and vice versa. Having a built in support system has been nice. My mom is now in the early stages of her journey.

My boyfriend and I were sleeved on the same day (17/5) and I wouldn't have it any other way. We are both experiencing the same struggles and successes at the same rate.

      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
