@Wanda247 the article would not apply to you or I in regards to metabolism changes since we are sleeve patients. The article is talking about changes to bypass patients because of the alteration in the GI tract. Thanks for sharing the article @Kimmie K, it is a good read.

CONGRATS!!!! Surgery 10/16/18....... 33 days ago. Surgery weight 278. I am now 246.2 so as of today I am 32 lbs down.

@crysharris great to know! I'm checking in at7.15am CST. My surgery is considered outpatient. It's overnight stay but I must leave in less than 24hrs. I'm calm, fully equipped with knowledge and physically fit (gym 4-5 days per week). All the best to you and quick recovery.

I know this question gets a little deeper on the physiology of things, but if someone out there can explain this, that'd be awesome. Please get as technical as you'd like

HUGS!!! Good luck to you!! Enjoy this journey to a new you!!

Hugs to both of you bI was 61 when I had my surgery HW 257 SW 236 CW 202

I am glad I did, not that I would ever forget.
