    4 weeks out!

    I usually start my day with a premier protein shake or one egg with low fat cheese. For lunch I have either chicken or fish with a very small amount of veggies. Dinner is usually close to the same... for snacks I have low fat baby bell cheese or a slice or two of lean lunch meat. I also drink a lot of water, diet Snapple, diet green tea.... it's pretty basic what I am eating and I haven't changed it up much, but so far it's working for me. What kind of things do you eat in a day?

    4 weeks out!

    It's amazing isn't it? I keep thinking it's going to stop, but everyday there's a little more and a little more. So happy to finally be going the right direction.

    4 weeks out!

    The last 4 weeks have flown bye for me! I had my sleeve on February 15th and things went very well. I had a few days of pain, and it took the whole week to feel confident with my liquid diet. At three weeks I was able to move onto soft food and so far I have tolerated everything I have ate. The best part is I have lost a total of 30 pounds in 4 weeks! I feel amazing, and am already thankful for this surgery. I hope to continue on my journey and become the healthiest version of myself. I'm thankful for everyone's posts and information who prepared me for this new life journey, it really is quite the ride.

    2 more days!

    Thanks to all of you for the help, I appreciated all your advise! Well, I made it! Just over one week out and I'm feeling great! Yes, I had a few rough days but I was surprised how fast my body is adjusting. I am looking forward to soft food, let the count down begin! Haha

    Waking up dizzy/shaky

    I'm five days post op, when I wake up from sleeping I feel instantly dizzy and week. What can I do to help this? Has anyone else felt this way?

    February Sleevers

    I'm getting sleeved on Feb 15th
  10. I have surgery date of February 15th. I'm a busy mom of three girls, I work, and am doing prerequisites for the nursing program. I'm nervous about losing energy and motivation after surgery... so my question is how did everyone feel after surgery? How many days before you were running simple errands such as taking kids to school and dance? Thank you Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I have a Date!

    My gastric sleeve will be on February 15th!!! After the phone call I was so nervous and not excited at all. After a few days of letting it sink in I'm starting to get excited for this amazing journey ahead. I would love to make friends with other February sleevers! I have been very private about my surgery and could use the support. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I officially have my approval!

    Thank you all, I will definitely keep everyone posted... I am getting nervous about the liquid diet mine will be for 7 days... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  13. Well the excitement and nervousness is officially sinking in with the phone call I just received stating I am approved! In the back of my mind I still have that little voice asking if this is the right decision for me. I should have a call with my surgery date soon! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Getting Closer! So many Qs!

    Thank you.... my main thing is I really don't want to tell the people I work with because I know there will be a lot of talking. I was going to request the time off and just take personal time off. I'm just worried what I'll say when people begin to notice. I want to just be a better version of me, not the girl who had barbaric surgery. Not sure if that makes sense... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. I just had my final appointment and am now waiting for my approval from my Cigna insurance... sounds like I will have surgery in January! I have been very quiet about the process and only my husband and sister know. I really don't want to advertise that I'm having surgery but also don't want to lie about it. I'm having trouble decoding if i want to tell people about it... what are you experiences, has anyone kept this a secret. What are your experiences telling people good and bad?
