[Miters36 0]

totally normal! No worries. I gained like 8lbs from the fluids and gas. It all came off and I lost 100lbs in 6 months. From March 15th,2011 to Sept.,2011. I've been somewut "messing around" thses last few months so I do indeed have about 30-40lbs to my goal, but I'm back on track now and already down 7 mor pounds in a week. It will come, be patient. you did the right thing by getting the sleeve. I LOVE mine and would do it again if i had to. Good Luck!

I was sleeved this past Monday and I am bloated and swollen. I really need to watch my sodium intake from the broth. I am relieved to see that this is a temporary thing. I was worried that I messed it up by licking that teaspoon of hummus. I am a little paranoid right now.

I was also sleeved Jan 24th. I had bought broth from the supermarket and it contained 480 mg of sodium/1 cup serving. I went out to buy a whole roasting chicken and boiled it. It made 2 large containers of broth which taste much better than store bought. And I'm sure less sodium.

My weight on the day of surgery was 210 lbs.

Good luck.
