I made a group called "December 2016 Sleevers!" I would love for everyone who has a surgery date in December to join! lets be a great support system for each other and go on this journey to a better us with great friends. Share our success and failures along the way, cheer each other on, wether you already have support from your family and friends or from nobody at all like I've unfortunately seen from some, lets make sure we definitely have each other to lean on! btw they say you normally gain weight around the holidays, are we crazy?! haha

My kids are 10 and 13. My 10 year old daughter is a worrier so I'm going to tell her closer to the date. My son knows and is supportive. Also knows how his sister worries so won't tell.

Two days post op and gas pains have been the only real issues at first. Walking as much as possible because it is the best at reliving that chest pain. Have had no nausea and Protein and chicken broth have been staying down.

Yes ma'am. My doc said at the two week check up I should be down 10-15 lbs. I don't know if I will but that would be great. I had hiccups and thought I needed a new rib, lol. It hurted so badly. But they went away. I'm just so excited for our journey. I live in mobile ala so mardu grad is huge here. I can't wait to see my results by then ... Mardi Gras is in. March this year( Fat Tuesday is) . Ithat will be 3 mos post op so def should see some results at that time I hope . Let's go Dec sleevers. My birthday is Jan 5 and that is my 1 month slleevaversary . Doc said he expects me to lose about 23 lbs by my birthday. I'm gonna try my best. But so happy for you and the fact that we are next door sleeve neighbors

Walking saved my life lol. No gas discomfort just hiccups a lot, but PT said that is another way of getting rif of the gas. So excited for our new journey!

December sleevers (surgery the 16th) and birthday buddies! Hopeful for results on our birthday.

ok I am new to "any type" of online forum or group thing...I am having gastric sleeve on Dec 27 2016 and am not sure if I am in the right group.

Is anyone out there ???

Sorry I'm a dork...I am in the right place

I'm 6 days post op and I must say this app has been a godsend for me. It is so much easier when one doesn't feel like they are going through this alone. In hospital I felt like I was annoying asking about every little concern but on here I've found the answers to just about everything and even some questions I didn't know I had.

While I'm a tad sad I'll miss Xmas lunch I'm so excited to start this journey and even more so now that I know where to find support
