Running Nose After Vs?
Brenda0600 replied to judy7120's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am approximately 2 years out and this appears to be very common. I've talked with a few folks who have experience the nose running. There seems to be no real answers for this, just a result with many who had the sleeve. -

Hello Sleeve Family, I guess this would be a good time to report on progress as this is our one Month Surgiversay!! Well, started the journey on March 19 (294). Highest Weight (306).. However, I am happy to report that current weight is... drum roll.... curtain call.... standing ovations...(smile).... 182.6!!! Totally unbelievable!!!!! I just left Marcy's today in an attempt to sized for the new "girls".. (well, the girls know what I mean). (smile), Well, 38D from a 46FF (can you believe that!!).. Compliements are out of this world, my look has totally changed, somehow, I am a new person and I am enjoying the person that I knew I could be. Thank you all for your support, encouragement or positive thoughts along the way. I hope everyone is doing good and understanding the importance to live health, through our eating, since given this second change to do it differently and positively. Be Blessed!!

Hello, I had my surgery in Mexico on March 19, 2011. Lived in Georiga at the time; however, I have recently moved back to Michigan. Highest weight 306, Starting Weight 294, Current Weight 182.6 Goal Weight 163. This has been one of the best decisions which I have made and my health is good. Looking for a VSG support Group in metro Detroit area to stay accountable with my physical/gym time. Anyone familiar with metro Detroit sleeve group(s)?

Let's count Dr. Aceves Patients!
Brenda0600 replied to Oregondaisy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Greetings Everyone!!! I just had to reply as I have not posted nor been in on the board in awhile. Of course, after VSG, it seems that sometimes folks are enjoying life soo much, time just seems to fly by. I had surgery on March, 2010 and started at 294 (which I could not even speak this number several months ago). Today (October 2), I am down 95 lbs which is just short of AMAZING!!. I feel good, just walked over 7 miles today with no problems, worked out after the walk and just seem to be living more now than I did 15+ years ago! Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos were awesome!! Nina was a blessing! The entire Mexico experience was nothing short of remarkable!! As an healthcare professionally employed individual for over 20 years, I have never seen nor heard of the type of care that I and others recieved at this facility! It really makes one think about how our care, in the States, could be model after the folks in Mexico!!. I am forever grateful and thankful for a new life which has been give me! God Bless the entire staff with Dr. Aceves!!! :scared0: -
