I started my pureed meals yesterday and did find with my homemade chicken salad and mashed up cooked carrots.

I'm 5'3 and at my hight 211. At almost 3 weeks out I am 187 and hope to get down to 125-140.

This is happening to me also. My doctor told me to only drink half the shake in the morning. So now I get up and drink a whole cup of tea with milk and then I drink half my shake. I am drinking smaller amounts thru out the day. I have been feeling better. Today I also had 2oz of cream of wheat after the tea.

I am 62 and I had my sleeve on Jan 9. I'm doing great so far. My MI/Blue/Cross paid for it. I'm a slow looser but that's OK as it took a long time to put all this weight on. Wish I had done it earlier.

I had my surgery the 9th too and I have only lost 8lbs I think you are doing really well! I am tired too. I am finally able to get my protein in but I am still not getting enough liquids. I have 3 more weeks until I can even think about eating real food. I think slow but sure it the way to go, everyday I do feel better!

The TKR is much harder than the Vgs, I wish I had done the Vgs first.

I had my sleeve done on the 9th and feeling pretty good. I still have lots of gas. I have a hive like rash all over my belly? Is this normal? It doesn't itch. I am only using tylenol right now. I think my biggest problem is I'm not eating or drinking nearly enough. It seems like I am spending the whole day eigher trying to eat, drink or getting the vitimins in. I don't think I have had more than 200 calories since the surgury. How long does this last??? I think I am weak from lack of food. Nothing tastes good and I am not hungary.

I am now day 3 after surgury. Doing better than yesterday, I gotten rid of some gas and coughed up some nasty stuff. I am still not getting in enough liquids, I can only drink 1/2 my protien shake. I did eat about 3oz of greek yogurt today. I don't have any staples, I have dermabond on my 5 wholes. They are very small except one above my belly button that one is about 1 1/2 in. I don't think you will be able to see the little one after they heal. Hang in there ladies it will be better tomorrow!

I had my sleeve yesterday, and it went well! I am home now, with a crappy stomach, is this gas?? I haven't passed any yet but feel like a have no stomach muscles. I seem to be sleeping all the time, from the pain meds. Glad to hear so many of you did good too! Good luck to Friday's sleevers.

Thanks for all the support ladies! I don't think I could have gotten thru this week without you! Wish you all much success and little discomfort!

Ladies, don't forget to take your before picture today!!! I am so excited for tomorrow!

Don't feel bad, mine is on Wed and last night I ate a hambuger, no bun and lots of chips! I'm back on track today only shakes! Good luck

Good luck tomorrow ladies!

To this weeks sleevers, we have been waiting and working so hard to get ready for this surgery. You will all be in my prayers, good luck. I'll be joining you on the 9th.

I had my pre-op appointment today, I am down 10lbs from a month ago! I am so excited for my new life to begin on the 9th! Thanks for all the support January sleevers! Now let's keep doing good on our prediets.

Good luck to you today! Keep us posted

It's not been a good for day for me! It is day 6 on my pre diet and I just ate a bunch of chips! I have stopped now. It's going to be a long New Year's Eve for me, we always go out to dinner and then to a dance/party and we aren't going this year, to many temptations for me, so we are staying home and eating shrimp. Have a wonderful clean eating, safe New Year's Eve, January sleevers!

Today is the fifth day of my pre diet. I am doing good but I have hours where I just want to cheat! I really have to talk myself out of it. I have also been buying supplies like crazy. Do we really need all this stuff? I got all the Christmas stuff put away and still need to clean. Jan 9 can't get here fast enough.

Good luck to you! I'm Jan 9 and can't wait

I can have 4 oz of chicken or fish and a few vegs once a day. That does help

Day 3 of the pre diet, I was so craving something this morning but it has pasted! Hang in there everyone on the pre diet!

We have lots of Jan 9 sleevers! I made it thru my first day of my pre diet with no cheating!

You're lookin great!!!
