Good luck to everyone having surgery today! If I were smart, I would have done it after Christmas as well... but, thinking like that is what got me this way in the first place! [emoji38]

How neat that you are so far away yet still able to communicate with us. Yeah the sleeve is the same regardless of where you are. But glad to hear you are doing good. It gets better on down the road so I'm looking forward to that.

I was dec 5 as well.... since surgery I have lost 21 lbs. I have some tough Patches but doing okay. How have you been?

December 5th I would love to join :)

I've been doing Owkay. I'm from Mozambique, but currently studying and was sleeved in South Africa (Cape Town).

So the set of Vitamins that mostly people talk about here are totally different this side but the experience is the same at the end of the day,and that is why I joined this forum although I'm from the other side of the world :)

My surgery is in 2 days...December 30th. NERVOUS!

I was too, and honestly, when I finally woke up I thought to myself, what have I done? But it's been almost 4 weeks.... best decision ever!!

You will do just fine Christina, I was sacred and nervous too!!!! But I've had other surgeries before, and this was by far the easiest time I had. Just be sure to get up and walk as soon as you can after and continue moving around, so the gas doesn't settle, that's so uncomfortable !!!! My son (who is an RN at the hospital where I had my surgery) had me up and walking hours after. The worst pain I felt, was like I was kicked in the stomach or like I had done tons of crunches, but that was it, nothing major!!!

Hey everyone!!! I just had my bypass on the 22nd...although I was SUPER scared the worst of it for me was recovery (night of surgery) next morning was tolerable with some soreness! But I'm a week out and I feel AMAZING! (other than this horrible liquid diet ????)

      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?
