Hw:287 CW:218 Had gastric sleeve nov 11, 2016! Hasn't been easy! I was in and out of the hospital with dehydration and stomach spasms causing me to vomit constantly! I'm doing much better now and these results make it seem worth it finally! Don't give up! You're gonna get to where you want to be! Have a blessed Friday!

That it's very easy to get dehydrated.. I had to spend 3 days in the hospital just go get caught up on fluids. You won't feel like drinking Water but trust me it's best if you do. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

70lbs is amazing! Congratulations! Cheese is one of the only things that sounds good to me as well! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I think you should do what's best for you personally and for your children! I also think it's a great idea to be as healthy as you can because it sounds like your children are around the age to have grand babies within the next couple of years! Ultimately it's your choice I'm sorry you have to deal with this situation! Best of luck Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was on pre op diet for 14 days and on day 7 I ate a cheese burger with fries... shouldn't have but I stayed on my pre op diet for the last week and didn't cheat at all and my surgery went perfectly. My surgeon said my liver looked great, just make sure you stick to the diet from here on out and you'll be fine Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm the same way! I smelled roast the other day which used to be one of my favorite meals and as soon as I smelled it I got nauseous! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
