[Nana 0]

Hello Alexa77, Good luck on the 20th... I hope to see you at the hospital. I am getting band to sleeve done on the 21st..... Oh by the way YES I did finally tell my husband. He was not so cool with it at 1st but is all good with it now. I will leave on Wed late afternoon and stay 1 night in San Diego then off to Mexicali. Just wanted to you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm 33 days out from surgery. I've lost 24#. I have no tenderness in any of my incisions. Swelling in my stomach is gone. I am just working my way into solid foods and last night 2 oz broiled fish was enough. I'm watching my carb intake and keeping it between 30-40grams a day. I'm supplementing Protein with protein powders, shakes etc to keep that between 70-80 grams a day. Cottage cheese is used in a multitude of ways. Same with Greek yogurt.

I'm 14 weeks out from lapband to sleeve conversion and down 68lbs!!! I couldn't be happier!! No complications, except that they couldn't get the port out because the lapband sucks. :scared0: (Sorry to lapbanders, but the lapband ruined my life.)

I'm 7.5 post op from band to sleeve, and at goal. Maintaining fairly well, haven't gained any, have lost a couple of pounds this week and not sure why/how.

I feel fabulous, and life is really great. I had my labs pulled on 15 January, and my bloodwork is perfect. My "good" cholesterol went up which is an area I struggled with pre-op.

It's been amazing journey for me, and I'm elated that I was able to get that band out of my body.

Josephine,

Does that mean that the port is still in there? That really sucks! I'm going on Wednesday to check if my slip fixed itself! I am so wanting a sleeve, and need to demand a revision.

You are doing fabulous, Keep it up!

I am almost 9 months post op. I can eat anything I want without problems

I am 2 lbs below my goal weight. Life could not be better with the sleeve.
