I live and work in Youngsville. How long ago did you have your surgery?

what part of Louisiana?

I'm doing ok with the liquids but no where near 64oz. I'm getting about 40oz

I was sleeved yesterday! And I'm doing really good. I was so nervous, but it is not as bad as I expected. Once I got over the gas pains I don't feel any pain at all. It is more like just soreness.

I teach 6th and 7th grade in Louisiana and I am pre-op. My sleeve is scheduled for July 17th just 3 days away and I am extremely nervous.

I'm in Lafayette and a newbie!

I am 42 years old mother of a 22 and 17 year old and I also have several reasons for choosing WLS: - high blood pressure that is poorly controlled by medication, high cholestrelol, and high triglycerides -making my husband of 24 years go to work functions alone because I'm too embarrassed to meet his co-workers -tired of avoiding pictures. My 17 year old son is a senior in high school this year and I want to be in pictures for his graduation day -having enough energy to play with my grandson. My daughter gave me a gorgeous grandson this past April ( he is a little over 2 months old). I'm sure I can think of more reasons, but these are the main ones. I'm really lucky that my family is very supportive of my decision. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for July 17, 2013.
