Did you lose a lot during your preop? -
That's wild! I just made my one month anniversary yesterday. I've lost 9 lbs in 3 weeks, 17, since day of surgery,27lbs since 4/4. My dr. Is happy and reassured me that I will reach goal. I lost 4 inches from waist in a month INSANE!

My boss brought yogurt, but that freshly popped popped popcorn drove me nuts! -
20lbs in two weeks is awesome, I've been on pureed for 8 days, I'm ready for next phase. I'm getting fluid and protein in but not enough food.

Hope all of my buddies are doing well. My physician is awesome, I went back to work last Tuesday and have worked 5 shifts with no problems, its amazing to think just 2.5 weeks ago I was 20lbs heavier. I too was sleeved 4/20

I was just sleeved 4/20, , had no problems! I work on a busy surgical floor, took one week off, did wait until 1week follow up appt and told doc I was returning. I use common sense, energy level is great, walking a lot and not thinking about eating like I was the first week off. Added meal reminder to smart phone when it vibrates I eat. I keep water bottles hidden on my COW. IT'S feasible. -
Check-in, my surgery went well, and I'm feeling a lot better than expected,

Congratulations!!! POD3 for me, sleeved 4/20! Doing good, muscle pain in stomach but tolerable, I feel so good I sometimes wonder if it was really done. Not liking the taste of shakes right now but getting at least 40_50g of protein in.

Congrats on your big day! -
So I submitted all paperwork last Monday, I was so excited for following through. : ) However 6 business days passed and no response. I called the institute and was told I had been assigned an advocate. Spoke to the advocate who said " I was planning to call you today, will call you back around 4, with appointments". : ) The first48 have passed and still no call. : ( Should I be concerned?

Exciting, I too am a nurse, hoping for surgery end of Feb or March, I know what you mean as far as energy, I work on a surgical floor, day shift and it's so busy. I already know I'll have some challenges getting fluids in, pros- typical day I will loG 11000 steps on a pedometer
