  1. 1 years has passed since you registered at SleevePlicationTalk! Happy 1st Anniversary jbcone!

  2. Wow, I havent been here for awhile, a lot happening in my life lately...but, I wanted to share a few successes with you all...my starting weight was 280, I am now down to 195!!! I have recently found a love for running, I just ran 2...count them 2 5k's in ONE WEEK!! Im signed up to do a 10k in July and a half marathon in September...I am finally what I have always wanted to be, A RUNNER!! here are a few pics...one before and 2 from my recent races this past weekend!
  3. Funny story! I cant really say my experience was the same...Mine was just a day surgery and I was back at the hotel the night of surgery, I wish that I could have stayed in the hospital
  4. is there a standard amount of time you should wait before hitting the gym? I know Im only 5 days out, not wanting to do it yet, but I have been walking A LOT as much as I possibly can, but is there a time when I can look forward to working out again? 4 weeks post op? 5 weeks? just depends?
  5. great job!!! Keep up the good work!
  6. Im doing okay, still have a lot a pain, a few of my incisions have opened up, one in recovery they had to stitch up, but other than that, doing okay, sleeping a lot. Scared to go back to work on Monday, but it will be nice to feel normal again...now onto the exciting part, the day of surgery I was 266.4, today, I was 258.6, I think thats pretty darn good if you ask me I just wanted to thank you all for your love and support, it means the world to me so THANK YOU!!
  7. My cousin Nick and I got the sleeve today, and I am feeling pretty good I cant wait to share my success with you. A huge thank you to my best friend kathy for being there with me every step of the way I love you girl!!
  8. Im excited, nervous, anxious and elated! I cant wait!
  9. I started my liquid diet today too...My surgery is the 24th as well...Im 29 years old. I know how you are feeling, scared but excited. You will do great!!
  10. Im going in January 24th and doing my surgery in Coos Bay, Oregon w/ Dr. Tersigni. My cousin is going to try to do it the same day as me...Im scared but also very excited!
  11. My boss is totally the SAME way...he wants to know ALL of my business...I think I am going to tell him that I have to have gallbladder surgery or something like have a cyst removed. When is your surgery? I just set mine for 1/24. Excited and nervous at the same time. Good luck to you

  13. And Im quite a bit scared...Im new here...HI, My name is Julie, 29 years old from Oregon. I decided to get the sleeve, and going in for my pre-op 1/5/2011...my insurance covers nothing, so I am paying out of pocket, but I think its worth it. I have a few questions...is/did anyone else have issues with wondering what they would look like? I have been overweight most of my life (with the exception of being REALLY skinny when I was really little) due to medical issues/thryroid/blah blah blah. I keep thinking that I am going to look "weird" or not like myself. Also, does anyone here regret the decision to do the surgery? Did you guys tell your friends/employers/co-workers? Im a little embarassed about it right now, but think after I have it done I will probably feel more comfortable about telling people. anyway, thanks for your advise/support!
