Numenow replied to linda305's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats Linda305! I just had mine on 11/20 down 20 pounds... My surgery went without a hitch! Had alot of folks praying for me and now I pray for you! Father, I pray for Linda, that her surgery will be uneventful and completely successful without complications. I pray for everyone in that operating room to assist with perfect precision! In Jesus name! Amen You Go Girl! Numenow! -

You'll be fine! Just take it a moment, hour and day at a time. Try not to think about the next 17 days today, it can be overwhelming. So, you slipped, don't bury yourself in guilt! Tomorrow is another day, another chance to move forward! Be Encouraged! YOU CAN DO THIS! Numenow -
10 days post op and already seeing that my tastes are changes from one day to the next. I don't want the chocolate shakes I've spent $ on. I am learning that what tastes good one day, may not taste the same the next. So, I'm taking it a day at a time....right now, I'm on a craving for sour...pickles, I just chew them, not swallow.....I'm not sleeping through the night either....and struggling to get my fluids in...Nevertheless, I'm encouraged and am looking for...

Hi, Let me encourage you, try not to think so far ahead in the future of what you can and cannot have. This surgery will change you in ways only you will be able to tell. Most importantly, the sleeve is a tool to help make your dream of living happy and healthy a REALITY! I am willing to give up my popcorn and diet sprite....I'm firm on this now, perhaps in another 80 pounds I maybe tempted, but I really want to take care of this blessed tool that gives me another chance...

7 day Post Op! Hey my friends! Today marks 13 pounds and 7 days since my gastric sleeve. So far, I must say I've had more good days than not. Yesterday was the most challenging...i think i got dehydrated. But I'm back on track drinking and now, I don't need the little 1 ounce medicine cups either. Today, i pureed some chicken and mixed it with very light mashed potatoes...What a treat! To taste meat again....I'm thankful for this Thanksgiving Holiday. That...

Surgery Is On The 27Th And I'm So Stinking Nervous!
Numenow replied to hallen651's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't worry! It will be well with you if you've followed your instructions! I had mine last Wednesday the 20th...I did very well..I am so thankful! Now I am at my 5th post op day....doing pretty well....walked a bit too much today though, so I'm feeling it now. Been sipping broth, eating Jello, drinking warm milk and trying to get my fluids in (water)...it's a bit of a challenge, but I'm just talking it a day at a time.... U CAN DO THIS! Numenow -
You can do this! It's not impossible! I did it last Monday and Tuesday! My surgery was Wednesday....think of your liver, this is crutial for your liver to have this time to rest and shrink...this makes the difference between your surgery going well and with possible complications U CAN DO THIS! Numenow

Yay! Surgery went well on 11/20..No complications...went home next day..No trouble with nausea, but I did ask for the patch before the surgery....might be good for you too!...eating very little...can't tolerate any cold beverages yet...but very happy it's over and ready to move forward1

I Lived Through This Surgery, My Sister Didn't.
Numenow replied to LyndseyD's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Wow! Leaves me almost speechless! My surgery is tomorrow and I am trusting God to take me through. Blessings to U and your family! -
Love your pic...I still haven't taken one and my surgery is this Wednesday! Numenow -
I was banded in 2005, went from 246 to my lowest 184 in 3 years....not too long after that, I started having problems...eventually in 2010, because of my band slippage, it was removed. Now i'm up 20 pounds from where I began with the band. Starting over, and looking forward to a stable, permanent tool to help me get healthly and remain healthy. thanks for asking, Numenow!
