CrystalVT, got a last minute call today to go have a endoscopy it's scheduled for may 9th. Hope it doesn't screw things up. I'm hoping it's just a last minute test that insurance is requesting. Fingers crossed.

Hello everyone. I am 12 hours post op. Still at the hospital. Besides some pain manageable with pain meds that's it. No nausea or vomiting. My doctor said surgery took all of 35 minutes. I remember when the put the oxygen mask on and the I woke up in recovery. When they told me it was done I didnt believe them because I was feeling too well. So I looked under my gown and there they were. 6 little scars. Looking gorgeous. No bleeding or bruising. I can't explain to you guys how happy I am that I made this decision. Have not regret any of it. Sooooo many good things to come!

Preop weight: 210

Surgery weight: 198.2

Goal weight: 125-130

May 2nd for me, I start the liquid diet April 18th. Feeling calm about it right now.

I'm only a few days ahead of you on April 29th :)

I presume you're on the pre-Op diet then, how's it going?

I did it for 2 weeks. I just had to keep it under 1500 calories. I'm dressed and ready to go!

@@byebyebmi, I'm scheduled for the 25th too! Day two of my pre-op clear liquid diet and I'm hungry, but not starving. Just need to keep my mind busy.

How are you doing?

I am scheduled on 4/27 for the gastric sleeve. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I had a lapband in 2007 but it prolapsed in Aug of 2015. The band worked while it worked but it was all over with when they removed the Fluid in August. I have regained a significant amount of weight back. I had reached my goal weight of 147 and was able to maintain for three years until the band prolapsed. And now I feel like the good year blimp! Lol... But moving on!

Home today. Minimal pain. Just felt sick when I took liquid Tylenol for the pain. Man. It had sugar. That made me feel sick for like 2 hours. Never doing that. As much as I hate it I'll stick to the oxi. Some gas but not too bad. Besides the little soreness in my stomach I feel normal.

So exciting to see how many people that have had their surgeries and those that are about to have them. I am scheduled for April 25th. In Jacksonville, Florida at Baptist Medical Center. I only had a one week pre op diet and I'm 5 days from my surgery!!!!! I am apart of a private/secret group on Facebook and if anyone would like to join send me a message and I'll give you my name to find me on Facebook. We have to be friends for me to add you. We have people that are 2 months post op and a lot of pre op people as well.

Good luck to all of you that are having surgery today!!! I know that everything will be great and you can start the rest of your life as soon as your eyes open!

      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
