Me too! We are surgery twins!

My sleeve surgery is June 18th

Newly post-op June peeps : what are you eating ? I don't feel hunger at all. So far today, I had 1/4 cup of juice and 1/2 cup of broth. I don't want anything else. Is that normal ?

No not at all! They keep you pretty comfortable with IV pain meds... just start walking as soon as you can and you will feel much better! I felt no pain after the third day. The first two days it's just soreness.

We're close in stats! I'm going to Piedras Negras, MX with Dr. Alvarez on June 15th. I start my pre-op on June 10th. I'm 5'6.5 and sitting between 199-200 lbs. My goal is 125-135.

How exciting that’s next week!

The 125-135 is my goal too! The last time I was 125-130 I was In he high school. So it’s kinda weird imagining myself that small. It’s been such a struggle to maintain 194 right now.

Yes, Next week already, it feels like time passed in a flash, I booked the surgery two months ago. The smallest I can ever remember being was 135 in high school too! I was in dance and it kept me in shape, m weight has slowly crept up through the years and after having my kids i packed on 20lbs each kid that just wouldn't come off. I used to be super active and then i tore all the ligaments in my foot and here came more weight. Now i also struggle just to stay under 200, i've tried everything including keto and it just comes right back on, with a vengeance every time. I told my family that I don't want to hear there opinions when they think i look weird if i do hit my goal weight. I know its going to be different for me because i haven't seen myself that small ever, even when i was at that weight i thought i was fat... if i knew then what i know now lol. I'm so ready thought to not feel all this weight on my knees and my back. That has been the hardest, not being as active because my foot swells under the weight and stress. Hope we can follow each others progress and be each others motivation!
