I had my sleeve done another doctor and had wonderful experience with him. Extra-ordinary service, hospital and care. Even I did my research before deciding for the doctor and after going through every aspects I chose Dr. Miguel Zapata. He has good credentials and good track record. Do your homework before deciding for a doctor. It is really important.

It is indeed remarkable how much it has stretched. Wonderful to see the comparison picture. I guess nobody posted such pictures on the forum. Thanks for sharing it.:001_tongue:

Good to hear that you are doing fine. It is such a great feeling when you are off the medications coz then you start feeling that you did the right thing for healthier life. Good to hear that your sugar level is also back to normal and yes, your hubby must be getting a goodnight sleep with less snoring of urs !!:001_tongue:

Hey Deedee... I was reading your blogs and really like the way you express yourself. I like your blog entries.

Are you taking something for your heartburn?

Welcome to the Loser's Club... You will not struggle once you start consuming the soft food. You will be just fine. Way to go girl....Start enjoying the new you!!

By now you must be sleeved...How did everything go? Do let us know about the developments . Welcome to the group of losers. Good Luck for a new beginning.

You are very close to achieving a new life. You might want to get yourself checked for the back problem if it is unbearable before going for the surgery. Very soon you won't be dieting for losing weight !! Hope you recover soon from the back pain and wish you good luck for the surgery.

Great going Josephine.... If you do everything right, you are bound to lose weight... Sometimes the scale won't show as you build muscle and muscle weight is more than the fat weight and hence no change. But you will be losing the inches !!

I followed what my surgeon asked me to do. As someone already said, I was also looking at a bigger picture. My doctor told me that a pre-op diet isnt necessary with a bmi of under 50. He requested a bowel clease 48 hours prior to flying as he didn't want me to have a sense of urgency on an airplane or while traveling. After a bowel cleanse, then it was clear liquids only until surgery.

Hope the scale shows you the number you expect to see !! All the best , but I guess you are doing great as you wrote that your clothes are literally falling of you...
