alexandria Looking for a Sleeve Buddy from Alexandria, VA
DCKiKi posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi - I'm KiKi and I am having surgery on September 19, 2013 and I'd LOVE to connect with another "sleever" in the Alexandria, VA/DC area! Please email me at dckiki@gmail.com if you would like to compare notes on getting sleeved. -
How long was everyone out of work?
DCKiKi replied to rredrruby87's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I went to work after exactly one week - today is my 2nd day back and while I'm surviving I'm definitely dealing with a sore back and some tiredness. It's manageable, though. -
Stupid Question - BMI TICKER
DCKiKi replied to cpeycke's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks! This helped me, too! -
Congratulations! I'm 8 days post op and 15 lbs down...but they haven't moved me to the pureed stage yet. I have to wait one more week for that.

I'm still dealing with soreness, but I'm only 8 days out from surgery. Considering all the work they did in there, I imagine we would be tender for a little while...

Things I will NOT miss about being fat.
DCKiKi replied to unbesleevable1's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Avoiding water parks with my daughter because I'm too fat Not doing outdoorsy things because I need to stay "covered up" Being offered unsolicited advice about how to lose weight Being the "fat sister" Feeling self conscious when I speak in front of groups because of my weight Avoiding events because I can't find anything to wear that will diminish my weight -

September Sleevers...! Come on in and chat!
DCKiKi replied to birdmadgirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm having my surgery at INOVA Fair Oaks in Virginia (outside of DC). I only have to do the liquid diet for 2 days before the surgery to help shrink the liver. -

DCKiKi replied to birdmadgirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm scheduled for September 19th and I'm super excited. I've been working on tracking all of my food and eating protein first, which has helped me lose a few pounds this week. We're going to rock this!
