PRINCESSM If you ever need support or got questions please let me know. I'm still new to this but I'm loving the journey and want nothing but love and blessings to all on their journey!!!

I had my surgery March 12. I am 5'4 starting weight 225lbs. Date of surgery weight 119.6lbs today 5/1/2014 186.0. I have not progressed to meats yet. Don't think I want any meats. I'm good with my fruits and vegetables. I have found a new love for food. How is the rest of March sleevers progressing?

PRINCESSM Congrats!!!! Welcome to a new life!!!! I had my surgery in March and I have lost 33lbs. My bones stop hurting, skin has cleared up, I look younger. I feel better!!! Look forward to same thing!!!! Just remember to be patient and love yourself!!!

Nobody know what I did. I did this surgery for me. Yes it was a selfish act but like I said I did it for me. I wanted it for me. My husband thinks I had surgery on my ulcers and my kids just know I had surgery. My family, co workers, and friends also think I had surgery on my ulcers. BUT it wasn't a complete lie. I did have 3 ulcers and the part of my stomach that was removed is where my ulcers were. So it wasn't a complete lie!!!

My sleeve was on 12 March 2014 (4wks) yeahhhhh. I'm a little sore berry every little. The only time I notice it is when I'm done jogging. My pre op weight 225.0, weight of surgery 219.6lbs, today I'm 194.6. That is 30.4 since pre op liquids and 25lbs since surgery. I started jogging a week ago. I could only do .25 miles before stoping I would walk the rest of my mile 1/2. Today I jogged 2 miles non stop!!! It's a damn good feeling !!!! I can't wait to see what the future holds. I am doing good with my water. But getting my protein in sucks!!! I'm making it my mission to do better though. I know I can be on solids now even though I haven't had my check up yet. But I like the mushy stage.

I'm 4 weeks post op and I have lost 21.4lbs. I think I have stalled. I'm getting nervous. I don't know if I'm good and on track or I'm moving slow!!!

Swimbikerun, Being that you are over 2 years in can I ask you a question? I'm 21 days in when were you able to eat solids comfortable and when you go out to eat do you feel like your wasting money cause you can't even get through half your meal? When you were less then a month out how much did you eat, cause it seem like I get hungry every 2-3 hours. Before surgery I was never hungry. I'm not use to being hungry. Sorry for so many questions

Adelair6, Awwwwwwww man that sucks!!! I'm so sorry you had seat through that. Why didn't you get some soup? I would have mushed up something. But then again it's not worth paying for. You have made it through Temptation and won!!! You should be proud!!!!

Missdeleon, Yes the gas is the worst part of the surgery!!! I'm glad you are feeling better!!!!

For the first time I THINK I have experienced dumping. OMG!!!! I swear I felt like I was going to give birth. It felt like contractions I felt it in my lower stomach my thighs and my back!!! Let me tell you how it happen when I got home from work at 4:30 I had to cook and feed my kids by the time I got done I had to go to class at 7:00 got of at 10:15. I was starving remembering the last time I at was 11am at work. STARVING!! So I got home made me some cream of wheat. I forgot to grab my 1oz cups cause all I wanted to so was eat. My genius but went in freestyle. CLEARLY I ate to much to fast. About 45 min in CONTRACTIONS!!!!! I laid in bed in the fetus position for about an hour before falling asleep still in pain. I woke a couple hours later used the bathroom at it felt like heaven!!!!! LESSON LEARNED!!!!!! I'm going back to pure liquids for at least a week or two. Purée foods got me scared!!!! I will never do that again!!!! Anyone else experienced dumping?
