    When did you start to feel hunger?

    I have been feeling hunger since I woke up from surgery! That was an unpleasant surprise for me! I have to track each bite of food and constantly drink water, tea etc to keep full.
  2. I have at least one protein shake a day. I am 3 months out from surgery and 53 lbs. lost.

    How old are/were you?

    63 years old...wish I would have done it years ago! Love my sleeve!

    Clothing size

    Started out at 16w - 18w. My surgery was January 29. I am now wearing 10-12 pants and medium or large tops (depending on style and brand). I have lost 51 lbs. and working on losing 20 more.

    Is this the right surgery for ME?

    I am one of the people who was sleeved but I am always hungry! The difference is that I cannot eat very much and I follow the "rules". I also log everything I eat into the "lose it" app. I also work out everyday. I am 10 weeks post op and down almost 50 lbs. (from the beginning of my journey). I love my sleeve! I have no regrets and have not had a single problem. I am 63 years old. Bro was 33

    Question regarding 7 weeks post op

    Oh I should add that I am 63 years old and retired so I have lots of time to exersize! : ). I am 5' 6"

    Question regarding 7 weeks post op

    I am nine weeks post surgery. STarting weight 237.9. Day of surgery 218. Current weight 190. I exersize 6 days a week. I walk on the treadmill or do the elliptical 40-60 minutes and lift weights. My doctor had no restrictions so I have been working out since one week post op, just didn't do abs and of course duration and intensity has steadily increased.

    Everyone exercises?

    I go to the gym, play golf or walk everyday with the exception of some Sunday's. I have a walking buddy who I walk with at a local mall once a week and we walk and talk for 5 miles then have coffee. It is fun and doesn't really feel like exersize. I must say tho, since my surgery exersize is no longer a chore but something I look forward to, especially as I see the scale moving in the right direction!

    My experience was the same...I am 2 months post op and haven't had one single problem!!! I am down 47 pounds total. I feel so very blessed!
  10. I am one week post op. I was nervous until they put me under. At one week post op, I feel great, have had no problems ( not what I expected at all). I am able to get my fluids in as well as about 50 protein. I couldn't be happier! My biggest concern is that I don't feel any restriction yet and I still feel hungry a lot which I thought that hunger would be gone. Getting a bit tired of liquids (4th week) but know it's only a matter of time. Good luck to you!
  11. I can drink a protein shake in less than an hour and am having no trouble getting my liquids in every day. I am 6 days post op and really have no complaints! I really don't feel any restriction yet. I am walking about 2 miles a day. I have absolutely no regrets!

    Why am I hungry?!

    I feel kinda dumb asking but what is PPI? I am also feeling quite hungry at 4 days post op.

    No appetite post op

    I was sleeved the same day. First day and a half had nothing but sips of water. Today I have been sipping water and Gatorade. I also had 2 ounces of soup and one pure protein shake (took 8 hours to drink it one sip at a time). Sadly, I have felt hunger. I was hoping that I would not feel hunger anymore. I do not yet know what full feels like. I have done a fair amount of walking today and really feel pretty good.
