HI,

HOw are you doing? I'm from CA too and also had my surgery on 4/20! Did not have any complications (so far,fingers crossed) but wanted to send you my support and well wishes. Hope you are doing much better!

I'm in Northern CA and had my surgery on 4/20. No complications. Just taking everything day by day. The gas pains and getting in/out of bed have been the worst. Each day it gets better!!!

I had same issues it will get better......

Oh you went the day before me. Doing pretty good. Cheated for first time had some ice cream and trust me I have been hard core all the way through. Dumb idea sick as a dog. Via the bottom end of business. Walking 3-4 miles a day. Feeling good. Weight is coming off 2 lbs a week. How about you? Are you feeling strong? Hope all is well. Michele

Hey there Michele, doing pretty good, and my first adverse reaction came from adding too much mayo to my tuna! I lost crazy fast for first couple of weeks, now it's down to about 2-3 lbs per week, but at least it's not going up!! Yes, fairly strong, I have my moments but trying to keep the bigger picture in mind.

Oh, total of 48 lbs as of yesterday. Although I'm not supposed to be weighing myself

Funny you say that about mayo in tuna. That was my first mistake. Yeah I thought I'd be losing faster but keeping on on track. Walking and probably not eating enough Protein. Losing though. Really excited to shed the next 20 cause I'll be breaking out the 200's!!! Thanks for answering. Stay in touch! Hope you are well. Michele

Hi. Chele367, I know that area! I used to live off Floyd and mchenry .

How are you doing so far. ? I am kinda of lagging on getting my blood work and going to my psy appt. I am just so undecided. I have always said " if I have ins , I would get the weight loss surgery" well I have had ins for a couple of year and they are going to pay for it. I really want the surgery one day then the next day I am not umm not sure. I just pray I can make up my mind .

I live in Salida. I am new to this whole thing. I have talked to my doctor about having the surgery and I have to meet with a counselor on Thursday. Then I have to take a class in December. It is still a ways away for me to get the surgery, but I am looking forward to it. I have Kaiser. What insurance do you have?

I'm in Northern Ca and 5 months of Sleeve 44 lbs off. I'm looking for Bariatric doctor in my area Eureka Ca to do follow up since I moved from where I did my surgery

Hello Cali sleevers, I see all the post here is a little old. I had my surgery Nov 8th and I'm 35 lbs down and feeling great but experiencing the nausea too. Went to my dr yesterday and he said it's normal. Just eat slow and watch how you eat. Good luck everyone!!
