Sergeant_Hotsauce 18 Posted May 5, 2012 Today is my one week mark since my sleeve with Dr Alvarez. So far its been smooth sailing. I'll be on Clear Liquids until Sunday then I start full liquids. Don't really have any complaints other than the clear liquids are really getting old but its what I have to do so its really not a problem. Day of surgery I was 249 down from 269. Today I am down to 234!! The road ahead looks good!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

modee 4 Posted May 5, 2012 Congrats Sergeant_Hotsauce (love the name)! You are on you way. It's 6 weeks since my surgery, down 40 lbs, and feeling great with my decision to go this route. The road is much easier to travel now that I can actually walk it a bit. Keep us all posted on your progress! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
