And I am feeling fabulous!! The first week I though maybe I had made a terrible mistake but now I couldn't be happier with the decision. Went to my two week appointment on Tuesday and I am down 20 pounds. Guess its a good thing to follow the program faithfully how is everyone sleeved in the last few months doing?? Would love to hear some stories of others!

I have lost 20 pounds in the last two weeks so I don't think you are losing to fast. They say you may have stalls and things so if that happens don't get discouraged. I am two weeks two days out and I am feeling amazing!

I am 5 days post op. In general I am doing well. I am walking a lot .. Eating as I am supposed to. I am off pain meds except for an occasional dose of liquid Tylenol. Below my main incision inside I am having pain, not constant pain but mainly laying down and moving wrong. It's pretty much in just one area. It is the worst laying down and I am not getting much sleep. Have they cut the muscle there or something? I know this probably sounds dumb to ask but I am doing so well I don't want to just freak out over that. Have you all experienced this type of pain? And if so... How long did it go on? Advice pls!

You look amazing... How long since surgery for you?

And I am having a lot of pain and gas that won't come out. I am feeling pretty horrible.

Tomorrow I am having my surgery. I am excited but a little scared all at the same time. Don't quite know exactly what to expect for the next couple of weeks but hoping all goes well and that I don't feel to crappy after for to long! Good luck to everyone having surgery in the next few days! See you all on the other side of sleevedom!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!

Thanks Dawn and best of luck to you also. I'm sure we will be just fine. Keep me posted too! Cheers to a day of total liquids!

Well now the time is flying by and surgery will be here before you know it. All my physicals and stuff are done and all is well. So why am I so nervous still? I know I am making a the very best decision and I am so happy about it but my nerves are still frazzled. I am wishing I had more confidence in my post surgery self! Anyone else ever feel like this?

Thanks ladies! I will be thinking of you on the 30th! Nice to know I am not the only one going through it on that day! We should start our own little support group... We could call it the July 30 Girls! What do u think about it? I really need some support and would love to have it from people at the exact stage as me

I am very excited!! July 30th baby!! Woot woot!!! It's official!!!

That is great! We should be WLS buddies since we are almost on the same page Rox! Where are you from? I am from Iowa... Lived 8 yrs in Florida and now I'm in NJ

Providing my blood work comes back ok I see my surgeon today at 3pm and hopefully will have my surgery date in hand! I am a huge bundle if emotions today! Hubby is traveling.. Wish he could be here with me! Hugsss to all!

I am happy to know you are home and that you are doing ok. I bet it is good to get everything fixed. I have a feeling that now you will be doing fantastic on your loss. I was going to have the band in 2011 but changed my mind at the last moment. I am going for an appointment today to get my sleeve surgery date set. I am glad that I didn't do the band looking back now. Keep me posted on how you are feeling! Hugssss

I am finally having my appointment to schedule today at 3oclock. I am pretty excited! Good luck to you! Hugsss

I will find out my surgery date tomorrow and I am hoping it will be towards the end of July ... I am so excited to get it set (and a little scared). I am so ready to go both mentally and physically! Please let me know how everything is going with you all.

I had my endoscopy last Friday and it went just fine. My throat was a little sore for a couple days but no big deal... You will be fine! Hugssss

I am so ready to get this done... I need it so badly! But Now that it is getting closer and closer I am getting a little scared. Is that normal?

Thanks Jerseygirl... I am in jersey too and no matter what I am not missing this opportunity! I am very excited to make this journey!

Best of luck to you too!! Hugsss and yes... Those are all the feelings I am having too all rolled up into a ball. Please let me know how it goes for you and how you are feeling!
