I'm 33 days post op and have lost 31 pounds and have been great full to be able to drink so much water ( 10-12 glasses a day) with no problem. Food doesn't slide down as easy, which is a good thing, as I have to continue to eat slower and slower.

At 4pm est, I will have my sleeve procedure started. 6'4" and 360 as of today

Yea, your right!! Steelers gotta hang in there. Not looking good right now

All, I got the VIP treatment on my rescheduled "sleeve" day. Had all the best as it got around that I could not be intubation the last time (10/31) My surgery went great on 11/13. With the exception of the extreme nausea I had upon waking in recovery ( lasted about an hour) and being dehydrated before being released ( they gave me a Bollus, a liter in about 45 minutes). Have been doing great so far on day 5 post surgery. Weighed 385 in June, and 348 on the day of surgery and weighed myself today at 340!!! Thought it was going to be difficult to get my "water" in, but haven't had an issue at all. I couldn't be more pleased with my short term results and am using an iPhone app to log all of my food. (My net diary) and its Feel good about the future! John

All, Thanks so much for your support!! Nice to know a I have More " brothers and sisters" who are supporting me......but I got as far as the OR, on the table and was Given the first round of sleeping meds. Unfortunatly, they could not intibate me after two attempts. So after two weeks of liquid diet and 24 hours I fasting, I need to do it all again as my date will be rescheduled, again. I had a milkshake on the way home though:)). !
