Sleeved March 9th, I’ve lost 70 lbs total, 8lbs to goal, I feel awesome!! But have stalled a little in the past few months. I will finish the year strong. Back to the basics for me

Awww I’m sorry to hear that. I haven’t been meeting my fluid goals either but I’m trying. Get well. Are they going to release you afterwards?

I have never been good at tracking but i feel it is absolutely necessary for success. I’m doing my best to track everything. I find this app very helpful.

Baritastic is a very good app. Journal, track water, protein or meals, timer tracking weight and measurements etc

I’ve been using Baritastic you can track pretty much everything food/protein, water, exercise, journal measurements etc

Yes I was sleeved march 9 with dr Szomstein at Cleveland clinic in Weston FL. It’s about a 25 minute drive. The Bariatric team is awesome. I was treated so well during my hospital stay. I highly recommend them. They definitely live up to their stellar reputation. Over all I feel fine . Just a little sore where they removed the stomach. On surgery day they gave me Tylenol and nausea meds prior to surgery. That really helped bc when i woke up. I didn’t have any pain just tightness in my abdomen. I didn’t have any gas pain either. I have not had any issues swallowing or vomiting. Extremely smooth recovery.

Had my surgery yesterday, 3/9 was able to take sips of water when I got to my room after recovery. Had a slight fever over night so I have to stay one more day just for observation. I also had my first meals today. Was able to keep down broth, and jello no problem. Have not had much gas pain. Just a little sore in my tummy area.

Made it to the losers bench !!

Lol... I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with myself because I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed. My surgery is on Friday. #soooeffinreal

How are you doing ?

Oh my! I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or bad. Did you request pictures? My surgeons office said they remove about 70%. How did things go for you? How are you feeling now?

Amen

I got lucky. I don’t have a “liquid diet “ until 2 days prior to surgery. For now I am to do 1 protein shake and 2 meals with veggies and meat only.

Hi! I’m March 9 th as well. I’m at my final pre op appt as we speak and it’s now becoming a reality that this is really about to happen 😬. I’m nervous too but look forward to good health in the future.

I’m hungry too! Omg on day 5
