Im 26f 5 11 in height. I was sleeved on oct1 highest weight 415 size 26 pants 3x tops. Surgery weight 401 size 26 3x tops. Current weight 350 size 22 pants some 20 dresses tops 2x. Soo good so far.

@@manibeaux I had to have drain put in cause of leak. But how do you know you aren't causing a leak again.

I am post op 5 days and boy does time fly. I was slipping water trying to make sure that I am getting all my fluids in. When I had a sharp pain hit my stomach and my shoulder at same time . Did I just bust this thing or is that how I know I reached the max. Im having so many issues im scared daily.

So after all the trips to er and all the stick to my feelings. I ended up discovering a leak.....now I have to be fed via tube directly to body so my stomach leak can repair. Its so small that can't go back in and find it.

On a great note I think my scale broke lol better news I was last weight at 386 from 401 pre surgery weight exactly 1 week ago.

Calm down maybe you Celebrate before and not be in such a rush. .when is your b day. The day before my surgery I had to do a full bowel cleanse. I couldn't anything what so ever and couldn't be around anyone that's for certain. Do you know what your pre surgery requirement are I mean I didnt learn about the bowel cleanse until 2 days before surgery. I hope you feel better.

Thanks it wasn't a leak it was in fact gas but also a uti infection all at once

@@Recycled ive noticed a lot but I was fighting a infection from my iv so that co2 gas pain went away fairly quickly the diarrhea and constipation. Went through all that too but I just never had such a direct pain shoot frok my stomach to shoulder blade. I am so uncomfortable I cant lay down sit certain ways take deep breathes. Im terrified I caused a leak waiting on doc call now

After a trip to emergency room I am back at it people turns out I got a infection due to the iv that rupture in my arm while in hospital I also had a uti and slight pneumonia

They pump you with c0 gas so all of it doesn't go away right away so it can be painful.

Had my sleeve done today. In pain but im alive

You look phenomenal!!!!! Congrats did you have a steady transition? Im so happy for you I hope I can be as happy a year later.

I cant wait to go to sixflags. Ive always have had a heavy bottom so I stopped fitting a long time ago but its the first step im making once I lose some weight. I cant wait to dress my age and not my salary due to being heavy.

Congrats we are on same day hope all goes well for you. Im headed to pre op check up as we speak wish me luck

3 days left cried a lot when I left work won't be back until November 10

My date is october 1 im getting so nervous five more days on this low carb pre diet and then its time I paid the hospital this morning. Im so nervous

Reading this thread was exhausting. I think some responses were in fact a little rude compassionless or harsh. Its all up to interpretation. @@waitingtoexhale I understand your struggle its going to be ok and thats what you needed to hear not that you were ill prepared for surgery and should rethink what you already worked so hard for. Ive been doing my preop diet for almost 4 weeks and I get food boredom I get anemic and I want to eat a bowl of cereal something so harmless but because I dont know how small my liver needs to be and this is the optimal tine to take from work I have to smell it look at it then take a walk and think about the food and rationalize why not and keep telling myself it probably doesn't taste good or that it won't satisfy me. It works....They gave me up to 20 grams of carbs I can eat outside of veggies and meats and cheese. Everyday I pull up how much a simple chip or piece of bread will cost me and I act like the carbs is how much money I can spend and if the food will take all my money then its no good. Those are some of the mental games I have to play with myself to make It through. Almost to the finish line dont let your mind get to you.

I just had to put in my leave absence from work today. It just got real. The surgery is exactly 7 days away. I cried a lot and had a slight panic attack. I pulled it together and wrote up ny advance directive and made sure my beneficiaries were up to date. There is so much to do.

My date is Oct 1

So ive been on my Pre op diet for like 4 weeks. I had gained some weight and needed to get back down so I did atkins induction. Today I wake up week as hell. Turns out I might have a iron deficiency meaning my primary care doc will tell surgeon and I may not be able to have surgery if my numbers are too low or don't bounce back by time my clearance date which is Monday next week. I hope everything is OK. Has anyone experienced low iron and has it impacted your surgery.

Ive done atkins before and never felt that way after cutting carbs. The atkins was the same thing my doctor or asked me to do as a pre.op diet I just started it earlier. I can't take supplements according to hospital because of anesthesia concerns. They made me stop taking my multivitamin and vitamin d. I don't know im going to wait for the hospital to call back. My primary care doc told me to eat spinach since I couldn't take the pills
