Had my first post op doc visit today !! 50 lbs down and 2 pants sizes down!! Not drinking enough water... Have to double my vitamin D dose and have to start the caltrate pill which I am dreading cause they are huge!!!! Blah!! Feel great though! Back to work on Sunday and can't wait!! How is everyone feeling?? I get to start soft foods Sunday!!! Yummm haha

You go girl!!! I hope I do as well as you!! Congrats and keep up the good work!!

They gave me a pill for the gas wouldn't let me use gas x strips and walk walk walk!!

I didn't have a leak test... I believe they did that when I was still under anesthesia! Give it a few days!! You will be amazed at how much better you feel in just a few days! Keep sip sip sipping!! Walk walk walk!!

I'm 18 days post op and just got to have scrambled egg. 1/2 of one.. My dogs got the other half! Hah I'm doing great! Doc has me totally off protein shakes... Caught a cold which sucks!! Down 44 lbs total and my clothes are baggy.. Especially in the butt!! Hahaha waiting till the last possible moment to buy a new pair cause I don't want to waste money! Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there !! They are having free frozen yogurt at Sweet Frogs today!! I am so there! Have a great day!

Walk walk walk... Sip sip sip!! Watch out if they give you apple juice!! It stings! Dilute it like crazy!! Happy healing and it will all be worth it!!

I got to have 1/2 a scrambled egg and it was delicious!! Tummy is gurgling a little but it was awesome!! Guess it just has to get use to food again!! Best day ever! Haha Happy mothers Day to all you Sleevers!!

Am getting sleeved April 23rd!! Looking for some people with dates around the same time fpr people to share experiences with!! I am so glad they have this forum... I have learned so much already from other people's experiences!! I have been on special orders from my doc diet and it works! So far I am down 20 lbs pre op!! So excited and nervous all in the same breath!! Can't wait to start my sleeve journey!

How is everyone doing??? I get to start scrambled eggs today!! Woot! Ran into some issues with a cold other than that I'm doing great! Get to go back to work next week!

Awesome!! Inspirational!! Thanks for sharing!! You look Fabulous!!

I did the same thing!! No worries... I got sleeved the 23rd of April and I have no food cravings what so ever! You will do great! Food funerals are normal! Haha

Thanks!! Got it!! What a horrible Tim to have a cold! Blah!

I have a nasty cold and I'm only two weeks post op. I tried taking Tylenol cold but the pill gets stuck and it made me nautious! : (

Thanks!! The liquids won't hurt to take? I will try it.. Anything is worth a try!! I don't want it to turn into bronchitis! Ugh!!

Wow!! I can't even eat more than 2oz of anything!! No way I would be able to do 1/2 cup! I'm on week two surgery4/23 and I still can only have jello loose mashed potatoes jello SF Greek yogurt and cottage cheese! I get a belly ache if I even try to eat a tiny bit more than 2oz.

I am two weeks out and I measure everything for that very reason! Be careful!!

I don't know if it will help but I had my surgery 4/23... It wasn't a slice of cake but it wasn't too awful... Either way.. I would do it again!!! I'm 40 lbs down already and in a little stall which is normal... I feel so much better already and it's great that I feel like I just ate a turkey dinner after eating 2oz of cottage cheese!! : ) I found biotin chews at GNC that taste good and I chew them to a pulp a tiny tiny bit at a time and so far I have had no hair loss problems!! I started them a week before surgery! I have followed my docs orders to a tee! Everything is going great! In the morning I have my Chike ice coffee cause it's full of protein and tastes good!! The Chike shakes are not bad either. I didn't like any if the other ones. If you have any questions feel free I am two weeks and one day out and feel really great!

You will do great !!! Walk walk walk walk !!! See you on the other side !! ; )

I am also two weeks post op today! I haven't weighed myself since Monday but I was still loosing then. I have been at my camp with no scale since then so not sure what is happening. But I just started Sunday on cottage cheese oatmeal Greek yogurt and mashed potatoes. Tried applesauce but it didn't agree with me. I lost 25 pre op and 15 more so far post op. I would be interested in knowing how you make out. I will post what's going on when I go home tomorrow! I have also heard there's a stall coming. Doc doesn't want me weighing every day. In fact he asked me to not weigh myself till I saw him. That wasn't happening I don't see him till the 15th! Haha

Agree!!! : )

1 270 2 250 3 232 Surgery was 4/23 4 170 5 getting more water in 6 starting eggs tuna and salmon toast/crackers! Yeah! Can't do applesauce it bothers my tummy probably the acid.

Holy moly you look fabulous girl!! I can only hope I look 1/2 that good!! I am gonna have arm flappers I know it! Haha and a flappy stomache!! Ugh!! Congrats on your hard work and success!!!

That is awesome!! You look fabulous!! I am only 2 weeks post op today... Looking forward to Sunday so I can have scrambled eggs! Haha no cravings yet but I'm sure it's coming! : ) keep up the good work I hope I can do as well!!

That's awesome! Way to go!! I so wish I did this sooner but better late than never!! You look great!

I was out yesterday and it was lunch time so we stopped at a dinner and I ordered just a side of cottage cheese and the waitress was like .. That's all you want?? I said yes! She brings out the cottage cheese and my friend her sandwich and soup and it took me just as long to eat my two tablespoons if cottage cheese as she did her soup and sandwich and man I savored every bite!! The waitress came back and I still had mounds if cottage cheese and I asked for a container and she looked so confused!! Hahaha it was so funny!! But I felt like I just ate a turkey dinner in thanksgiving!! It was great!! I love my new tummy!!
