Right after surgery I couldn't stand cold liquid.. Warm or hot stuff would sooth my stomach. Today i am 2 months pre-op and I seem to be craving ice cold drinks all day.. Good thing I get all my liquid in but I am wondering if it's normal?? I even like to semi freeze my protein and eat/drink it lol

I was the same way Renee but I guess I think I was also in denial for many years of what size I really was .... Good luck !

Starting weight 284 now 247.4 still have a long way to go but motivated to see the changes Good luck to everyone! And congrats !

Hey that's awesome we can be our own oil support =D when did you get sleeved? No I am not a kaiser patient I actually got my surgery in TJ this past Feb 09. And yourself ?

Thank you. Although I do the physical exercise I find the sauna to be relaxing afterwards. I just was concerned about dehydration.

S it good to go in the sauna at 2 months pre-op? I'm just scared I'll dehydrate or something.

Hello Sexylady aw thank you for the compliments but u do need to lose a lot lol my starting weight was 284 and now I am down as of this morning to 246 ((happy dance)) I am 29 yes old and live in L.A. How about you ? PS compliments always make us feel good thank you.

Hey guys !! Although it's only been 6 weeks this Thursday and 34lbs less I started taking some clothes out and it feels great even though I am still considered obese sometimes I got to remind myself Lol guess it's bn long since I been this weight 249 just thought I'd share with people who understands my excitement!

Hey everyone! I'm going on my 6th week and already eating a lil of everything but the two things I seem to have problems with are tuna n red meat. I know I have go chew really good n just a small amount but when I eat that I just feel like it gets stuck n won't go down.. Any one have issues? I try to eat it because of Protein but when I do it's very little n I feel it takes for ever to break it down.

Hello there ! It's been almost 6 weeks for me and yes you will be able to eat those yummy foods but just in a very small ridiculous size portions lol I think as time passes you will aboe to make the portions a lil bigger, but the great news is YES!

Just wanted to share my story so far. I was sleeved (not sure if thats the correct way to say it) on Feb 9th, so far everything is going good. My starting weight was 282 lbs and as of Friday 03/09 I have lost 30lbs. It feels great to be close to the 240's =) My ideal weight would be 150lbs not sure how long it will take me to get there but I have faith that following a diet and exercising I shall get there I plan to start exercising next week, well thats depending what my Doctor says this Wednesday. I want to wish everyone good luck! And may we all accomplish our goals.

Congrats! That is awesome. I am almost 4 weeks out and have lost 30 lbs It feels good.
