  2. Jan 24 was my surg. I have 60 lb to lose and am at 25. Its moving slowly but I believe that being at @ 1/3 of goal at 6 wks out is ok.? Thoughts? Trying not to sweat the numbers. Getting smaller, clothes starting to hang. I am struggling w water! I know that can make the all the difference. Look forward to your thoughts.

    Low BMI and Gastric Sleeve

    Hello - Well today i hit my 3 week mark. Things continue to go really well. I am honestly eating almost everything that is allowed in the 4-6 wk diet - in proper amounts. I have lost 18 lbs and couldn't be happier. I have had no issues. I feel good. I have energy. I am hydrating. I vomited one time - i gobbled down some chicken and potatoes. I think i had a moment of insanity - i inhaled like i used to and boom! But that was it! Super tool - i bet I don't do that again. I went to a party tonight - everyone complimented me on how fabulous I looked. Made me feel great! On to the next 3 weeks. Best decision I ever made!
  4. Hi all... I had my surgery 1/24 and had a super experience soup to nuts. All good since home... Sipping and meeting my liquid intake including protein. My incisions itch too. I work remotely and returned to work on wed. I am craving more substance... Anyone feeling that way?

    January 2015 Buddy Group anyone?

    Hello Hello - It's Wed, not Monday - I'm back. First - THANK YOU for your input, feedback, sharing your stories - I know that what i read and adhered to is largely due to what I read from you all!!!! Surgery 1/24; It went great and it has been relatively smooth sailing through day 5 (today). I followed everyone's advice and walked and as such, had no gas pains. The pain I felt was manageable and by day 2 i felt basic soreness (still do a bit) but nothing that i needed meds for. Drain out before i went home on day 3. I did have some sudden heavy oozing yesterday, but it has subsided - no issues. Rested alot between surgery and part of day 4. Feeling really good today. Went back to work (remotely). I am sipping away and plan by day 7 to start walks! BUT - today, I thought about food a couple of times. I think i read that is normal. Not hungry, not feeling deprived, just thought about food. I stayed with a friend until today. Maybe it was just because I was back in my digs and i am used to eating here? Anyway, pushed through it. I did make a protein shake (chocolate) and sipped slowly. All seems well. I am not weighing yet - haven't weighed since a week before surgery (when i began my 1 week preop diet). Let's see where I land after the swelling, soreness subside. I am watching for your results! sothere
