Hi Dina you are not alone we are all here to help each other. I got sleeved Jan 2nd and I stall for one week and a half and started to come down now. I saw my Dr. This past Friday she told me I was doing great. I lost 25 pounds post op. she asked me if I excercise every day. I told her NO. She also told me most ppll lose 7 to 10 pounds at their 2nd visits. So don t feel bad it will come off sooner or later when your body is ready. I wish you all the best.

Wow you look so great. How tall are you?. I am 5'5" I started my journey at 347 and the idea of being where u are now it s like a dream can t wait.

I did take the option program only two of us lost 10% of our weight out of 20 ppll. My Dr. Only accepts those who lost the 10% but I do know a couple in the of girls who did have the surgery and they only lost 7-10 lbs. please try to lose the 3 that u gained. As long as you do not gain they will do the surgery if u need help let me know I will help you I lost 53 lbs pre op . Good luck!

Hi I am also a nurse. I work in a psych ward. My Dr. Told me I will be ready to go back to work on two weeks and I told him I need 5 weeks. I wanted to make sure I go back on my terms and completely healed. If you have the time and additional insurance take your time it will be worthwhile . I rested we'll unfortunately I am going back tomorrow

Try MOM it worked for me and take it before you go to bed the next morning u will be so relieved . You don t have to run to the bathroom during the day .

Are you for real? Tell you what, just slap the ***t out of him and tell him "your life is not a Soap Opera and leave him! Ooh and when you ready to love again I will find you a real man

Of course you can. Let s hear it! I am at your service . Welcome!

It s all over now . I am so glad that you feel much better and it will get better every day. Keep drinking fluid as much as you can it s very important that you hydrate yourself. Try tea, water, chicken broth, jello and go back to tea all day keep siping . I will be praying for a speedy recovery. You touch my heart please let us know how you doing. Bless you!

You deserve it after all the hard works. What a great gift enjoy!

I did have a JP tube after the surgery. I did not have to much drain and it was removed the next day. A couple of hrs later I was discharged.

I was sleeved Jan 2nd. I am doing fine thank God. No N/V. The gas is the hardest part to deal with. I had the call 4 days before my surgery but my Dr. Didn t cancel it . I have pain getting up from bed and the coughing at night time down t help. Overall I am doing great. How are the rest you doing i would love to hear from you. we did it ! :)of you soon

I can t sleep! Today is the day. I need all the prayer I can get not only me but to everybody here that will be sleeved jan 2nd. Keep us in your prayer. I just don t want to die:( not yet I got so many things to do ....

Hi everybody I made it. Praise The Lord and thank you for all your prayers bless you

Thank you so much everybody God bless you all for your prayer and kind words. I am up thanks to you I have a big smile and a joyful tears in my face. Thank you, thank you thank you all.

I am January 2 I can t wait. Excited and nervous at the same time. God bless us all Amen! Can I get an Amen?

Mine is Jan 2nd . I am so excited and happy to do this. Just came back from seeing my surgeon. All is good lab perfect lost 44 lbs in 3 1/2 months. Can't wait a little nervous tho .

Do not take Motrin and nothing OTC pain medications except Tylenol it causes bleeding . You should be stoping taking those Meds two weeks before your surgery. That s what I was told . Try to drink decaf tea or wrap a scarf a little thought your head that will reduce the headache. This will pass. Think positive talk. I will be praying for you.

I wish you all the best . Don t you worry give everything to God. He will take good care of you and I will pray for you!

January 2nd here. A new year followed by a new life. Can t wait! May God be with all of us, guide us and most of all protect us. AMEN!

Me Me Me! I can be your surgery buddy. Jan 2 just like you. I wish you all the best . What a way to start the new year. I can't wait.
