Good luck with your surgery--you won't die! You will be a great success and LIVE! I won't be having surgery until next month but am happy to follow your progress and stay in touch!

I had surgery on the April 1st too. Doing well so far. How are you doing?

April 4th for me. Thought this would be a little harder than it is, no complications, drinking protein water and protein shakes.

I'm April 5. Its been so much easier than I had feared. Trying to transition to soft food. That's a little hard.

I'm trying to learn how to navigate this site too. I find it a little hard to get back to the forums that I respond to.

I'm curious how we early April Sleevers progress too.

Good luck everybody.

I don't want to lose hope I don't know what I'm doing wrong I know I wasn't able to eat all my Protein because I kept throwing up

If you are still throwing up...call your Surgeon. If you are getting all of your Water and protein in - you are experiencing the Stall. It's very common. Stay off the scale and drink water, get protein and walk - the scale will eventually catch up.

Thanks KristenLe I will stay off the scale I'm so use to stepping on the scale it's going to be hard but I will try. It's also when my own mother says to me you do don't look any thinner to me I guest she expected to loose 50 lbs in 3 weeks, I think this is why I'm in the Suport group for the moral Suport

Mothers!!! Ugh! That sounds like something my Mom will say. Do you take measurements... I bet you'll notice a difference. Ignore Mom - you'll be fine!

Hello all,I just found the site today. I had my gastric sleeve procedure done last week April 21. Also had a hernia fixed at the same time. I feel so bad for the people who have mentioned Throwing up post surgery. Hick ups and coughing are bad enough. Luckily that's the worst I have done. This Friday will be my first follow-up visit, allowing me to switch from liquid diet too soft foods.

Hello all. My surgery was on April 1st, fools! Doing good so far. Lost about 45 lbs or so. I started working out May 1st and I'm about to start shopping for new clothes. Everyone has notice as well.
