oh yeah 5-6 weeks u should be fine! i have a similar situation...i am a bridesmaid in y friend's wedding in November...everyone went to pick dresses the weekend before i got sleeved. However there is NO WAY i can pick a dress now. She is very understanding though....i will be going in September a little closer to the wedding and hopefully requiring less alterations. She wants me in the wedding so much so, she is willing to let me wear a different dress if need be.

tres entertaining u will get the urges back...at least I hope so....i am praying for the mushies so bad..OVER LIQUIDS. But congrats on the 29 lb weight loss!

thanks guys

3 weeks i had surgery on 4/11 returning on 5/2

looking great and Congrats again!

congrats!! you're doing great! Keep up the great work

of course there is no guarantee, but I too was very obsessed about the surgery...i check stats, googled my surgeon, watch the video of the surgery on youtube, ask my friends/family about their anesthesiology experiences. I was QUITE annoying...but I was sleeved on 4/11 and so far so good. Just do your due diligence, research your surgeon, and ask as many questions as needed, and put your faith in God. You'll be fine

i have often wondered though, is it that ppl look sick, or is it just that we aren't used to seeing the person at that size?

water or skim milk

i need to ask for a card! lol cant wait for purees lol

Congrats and you look GREAT! what a wonderful gift to yourself Might I add you have GORGEOUS hair. was it affected by the surgery at all?

Beans,scrambled eggs with cheese, tuna, egg salad, and my mommy's homemade Soup (sighs) praying for May 2nd when i can have purees

i know. Patience is a virtue lol

i had a 2 week liquid pre-op diet, and then after surgery clears for 2 days and full liquids from day 3-21. I am not hungry...just bored...but because I want no issues, I will stick to the plan. Hopefully it will optimize my weight loss initially. I am eagerly awaiting purees though

walking, heating pad on my back, tea/broth

wow looking hot!

sorry to hear that.... Take it easy girl. Get well soon!

thanks guys! i think the shoulder pain is gas....i have been using a heating pad on my back and shoulders...that does give some relief....tea and hot broth also

I had my surgery on Monday...and although i do feel better each day...after reading everyone's stories on here i am wondering whats wrong with me. This was my first major surgery but i still feel sore, and sleeping on my back is KILLING me. I am a side/stomach sleeper...getting out the bed is a chore. I just wanna feel normal

looking great!!!
