@leal536... u will do just fine. I got a tiny little bit nervous the morning of surgery. But I was more excited than a child waking up on Christmas morning. Its what you make of your surgery. U go n with a positive attitude, and u will come out with a positive feedback. We all get nervous about surgery. No one I know likes surgery, or want to have it. But if u have too, then u have to. I was up and walking by 8pm that night. My surgery was for 9:45 and by 10:30 I was out. The only problem was that I was n recovery so long,becuz I kept throwing up and they couldn't get me to stop. So mind you I was in there for 3-4hrs. My husband said I was so coo coo that it was not funny. He sd I sd I wanted to go to the bathroom sat on the bed and fell asleep. Stood up and fell asleep. Its funny now, but lawdddd I can only imagine. I'm down a good bit of weight from the 30th until yesterday. Weight in 273.. now 251.. I have been on liquids. Stomach is the size of the medicine cups u get with cough meds. I have no appetite. I can barely drink a bottle of water,protein,or even eat sugar free jello. I went bk to work that Monday after my surgery.. Jan.4 Went bk to working out Saturday past. Walking on treadmill anywhere from 15-30min. At 2.4 speed and incline 3.0 and up to 15.. but I am walking veryyyyyyyy slow. -

Hello everyone! Hope all is well with each and everyone. I am new to this app on my phone, and I feel retarded. I usually use my computer. But anyway, I am here and hopefully I am using it correctly. I was sleeved on 12-30-15 which at that time I weight in on the 29th before my surgery at 273, went yesterday for my 1week post visit, and I am down to 251 and that is with tights, T-shirt, and underwear. They take 3lbs off for clothing, so you know where that leaves you. It was so amazing to hear my doctor say, wow you look so different over there. Your wasting away. All I could do was lol. I was so glad to know that I am wasting away in a good way because thia has been a challenge. I have never been a heavy person. so to go from 110lbs to 398 is ludicrous. -

Sleeve Surgery December 30
123015 replied to Stacie Hunt's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
GOOD MORNING! I AM SO GLAD TO KNOW THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL OUT THERE WHO HAVE HAD SURGERY THE SAME DAY AS I HAD. MY SURGERY WAS ON 12*30*15 AND I HAVE LOST JUST ABOUT 10LBS(9LBS) YESTERDAY. I AM NOT SURE AS TO WHY YOU HAVE GAINED WEIGHT. WHAT ARE YOU EATING? BECUZ I KNOW I CAN BARELY EAT. AND I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD SO MUCH STOMACH AT THE TIME OF MY SURGERY, HE HAD TO REMOVE IT. SO NOW MY STOMACH IS THE SIZE OF A MEDICINE CUP. I RARELY EAT. AND WHEN I DO ITS sugar free Jello, SUGAR FREE POP SICLES, AND broth. H2O IS ALSO A GREAT FACOR. I STILL DONT AND NOT ABLE TO CONSUME 64OZ YET BECUZ EVEN IF I SIP SLOWLY, I AM FULL AFTER ABOUT 3SIPS. IF I TRY TO TAKE MORE LIKE THE OTHER DAY I START TO HAVE PAIN AND THEN I START EITH THE WATERY MOUTH AND GRADUALLY SOME OF THE H2O WILL COME UP. NOW THAT I AM INTO MY 2WK, I AM ON MY Multivitamin, WHICH I COULD NOT SWALLOW YESTERDAY THAT I HAD TO GO OUT AND GET THE CHILDREN FLINTSTONE Multivitamins THAT ARE CHEWABLE IN ORDER TO GET THEM DOWN. SO FAR SO GOOD. BUT I AM STILL NOT HUNGRY.. AT TIME I GET A LIL THIRSTY, BUT VERYYYYYY LITTLE. I STARTED BACK AT THE GYM THIS MORNING ON THE TREDMILL FOR 30MIN. AND I SURVIVED. I FELT A LIL PULLING SO I SLOWED IT DOWN. BUT IT FELT SO GOOD TO BE ABLE TO START BACK WHERE IS WAS. NO ONE WANTED ME TO GET BACK IN THE GYM BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID THAT I MIGHT INJURED MY SELF, BUT I SAID HEY I GO TO WORK SINCE MY SURGERY FOR A HALF DAYS, I DRIVE MY KIDS TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND I RUN ERRANDS. SO IF I CAN DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS WITH LITTLE TO NO PAIN, I CAN DO WHAT I NEED TOO. I WISH YOU THE BEST AND HOPE THAT U FIND OUT AS TO WHY YOU HAVE GAINED 4LBS, AND HOPE THAT FROM THAT POINT ON YOU WILL BE ON YOUR JOURNEY TO A GET SUCCESS AND NEW START. -
