Any March 2018 Sleevers?

I just got my surgery date for March 5. I am excited and nervous at the same time but I'm trying to hold it all together. :)

Don't forget to take your pre-op pictures and your measurements. People forget!

March 19 here! I'm super anxious right now, but mostly looking forward to all the stuff I'll be able to do when I'm smaller.


Best of luck, let us all know how it goes!

Well here I am. Was a bit of a tough day. Unending nausea even with all extra meds. Severe pain. But 6:30 pm has arrived and last cocktail of pain meds made huge difference. Was able to take a couple walks. Couldn’t get warm. 4 blankets and heat cranked up in my room with door shut. Doctor unfortunately said not going home tomorrow due to not being able to start stage 1 today. But it’s ok.
When I got on scale this morning I had hit 53lbs off. That was 28 over what doctors goal was before surgery.

I hadn’t mine January and have lost about 1/3 of my expected weight loss. Just drink lots of water and do exactly what your Diatician says

Well 3:30 in the morning. Officially started stage 1 now. Able to start little itty bitty sips of Water now every hour. Pain is not to bad. Had pain meds at midnight and don’t feel I need them right now. Walked a total of 5 laps last night. Very happy about that. Staff here is just amazing!!!

Today is going to be great!!! I can tell.


how are you doing

I'm doing okay. Gas pains are horrible. I'm walking, walking, walking and taking gasx but nothing is coming out. The gas builds up not only in my stomach but my left shoulder as well, which is so weird to me. Pain is moderate. Definitely relying on my hydrocodone every 4 hours. Waking up every 3 hours at night automatically to either drink or pee. It's hard getting used to only sipping, cuz anything more than that hurts. But I have no nausea and I'm feeling better today than I did yesterday. Just wish the gas would go away!! [emoji5]
