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 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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
