I was sleeved just yesterday! Got home a couple of hours ago. Trying to figure out my new stomach. Everything I intake hurts so far. No matter how little or slow I go.

I don't have one either...same here just nothing after midnight the night before.

If u dont mind, how much do you weigh? I think the pre-op diet has something to do with your weight maybe

Good to know its not just me then. I was spitting up right after the procedure but have not vomited since. The pain makes me not want to drink anything even though I'm super thirsty

Jrk I'm sorry but you still have me in your corner. They postponed me back to early-mid March again.I have to have a upper GI with contrast done. The EGD showed I have a small gastric ulcer and this will pinpoint its exact location. Probably in the part he won't make my pouch out of but this way he's certain. Originally he was going to fax my gastroenterologist to arrange it at my local hospital but now they are going fax the Diagnostic Imagining dept. here directly. I didn't want to have to go to Columbus to,have it done, we have 4+ inches of snow on the ground with a strong chance of more tonight and Colombus is 50 miles (80 km) from where I live. After that things should resume going forward. I want this surgery and most people I'm not overly patient.

Hi I has nothing to do with weight. My Dr. does not require it from anyone. I asked right from day one...thought it was odd. Guess as long as you don't gain any weight along the 6 months he is good with that.

The pre op diet, which varies from surgeon to surgeon, is to shrink your liver. Overweight people have overweight (fatty) livers. The liver partially covers the stomach. If you go super low carb for a few weeks your body will feed off the fat and shrink your liver. A smaller liver makes it easier and safer surgery.That’s what I was told why they require a preop diet

I was sleeved on 2/6/2018. I am 4 days post op and feeling better! Would love a sleeve partner to share stories with! HW: 245 SW: 230 CW: 229. I’m just trying to sip and get my liquids in!




I was sleeved Monday and I'm trying to get my sips in and not go over I'm having a hard time but it's coming along.

      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?

      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
