Getting Sleeved in MX on Monday the 5th!



Recommended Posts

Hi Mandy! Good luck to you! I went down to Tjiuana and was sleeved by Dr. Illan. I'm feeling great postop. The incisions are small and the experience was excellent. You will be fine! Who is doing your surgery?

Awesome to hear Susie! I am having Dr Almanza do mine. I have several close friends that have used him and they all have had incredible success.

I'm so happy to hear your feeling well!

Are you having to take a lot of pain meds? What are they giving you for pain and is it on a pump?

I'm a lil anxious too but look forward to saying I'm free of this bondage that being overweight has held me in for the past 15 years. It's time to be me again.

I get sleeved on Monday as well. Feeling a little anxious because both of my sons are sick and my throat is sore.

No, pain stopped after day 2. Initially right after surgery I was on an IV and they would come by and give me pain meds every couple of hours or so. When I felt pain I would call on them for more.

After going home, I have been sore at times but there's not a thing Tylenol can't help. They gave me antibiotics and anti-gas medication. So far so good.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
