Hi all! Sorry I haven’t written in awhile! I’ve been busy losing! Lol. I’m down 23 pounds in 2 weeks! Feel fantastic! Had a hiatal hernia that needed repairing while he was doing the sleeve. But no complications post op. I’m just starting to eat tiny bites of regular food here & there. No hubger what so ever. Drinking my premier shakes & water. Not exercising just yet. Hope all is well with everyone!! Ladycop 😊

I’m so excited. I’m scheduled for surgery December 7, 2017 and today I have my pre op testing. Blood work, EKG & chest x Ray. Then it goes back to my primary care Dr for final approval. Yes! This is really going to happen!!!

150# at 6 month mark is my ultimate goal. I’ll be happy with 170 tho.

I need to be able to drive my daughter to & from school directly after discharge from hospital so probably day 3 post op - eternity lol I just want to make sure that pain pills & pain is not going to savagely abuse me & make it so I can’t drive. I’m a huge wimp now when it comes to pain. This is like surgery #10 for me lifetime wise and now that I’ve retired my pain threshold has GREATLY decreased. How was post op for you all?

I can’t wait to see my hip bones again. It’s been 3 years since I’ve seen them & felt them. Huge goal for me - HIP BONES

I drink premier and LOVE them!!! ALL flavors are great. Caramel is my fav but can’t add different flavs to it except PB & banana. I just ordered vanilla and bought sugar free jams to put a teaspoon into and change the flavor. Seedless BlackBerry & strawberry. Yummy.

Thank you Nataleh! And good for you! How was your immediate post op? Pretty tough or not so bad? There are specific people in my life that I’m not even telling because I just know they’d say I was taking the easy way out & cheating & just be snarky about it.

Hey Sips where are you at now? Thank you for the reply. How was your immediate post op? I’m a little nervous, I’m retired but have 3 daughters and 3 dogs to take care of. Hubby just found out he has an out of town meeting to attend days 1-4 post op. 😳😬

December 2017 Sleevers! Friends wanted! My surgery is scheduled for 12/7/17 anyone else out there? Hi! I’m from NY. Retired LEO. Moved to Florida. I’m getting ready to start my pre op testing now. Have all paperwork in & insurance approval. Getting nervous about this journey! Help!!! I’m 5’7 1/2” 226 BMI of 35. I’m one month pre op yet. Very interesting reading all of this! Some true inspiration stories here and weight loss time track envy! I’m praying to lose my hunger & extra pounds as quickly & steadily as possibly safe. I’ve got little support in my family And it’s more like everyone is waiting to see me fail & prove them all right since I tried the obera balloon last fall & failed MISERABLY Then proceeded to gain over 25 pounds in the last year. I’m a retired police officer of 20 years and have ALWAYS been strong & in shape & proud of my mother of 3 body. Not anymore. I don’t even recognize myself. Scheduled for surgery 12/7/17. I’m 46 years old.
