I was sleeved May 10. Lost 15 pounds on the pre-op diet and 21 more since. Feeling great and no complications at all. Did a 7 mile bike ride this morning and then ate 2 scrambled eggs for Breakfast with no problem. 2 weeks ago I never thought I'd feel this normal this fast.

It seems as thought May 10th was a popular day! :) I was also sleeved on the 10th, and as of last Tuesday, am down 26.5 lbs since surgery. I seem to be stuck since then, but I go back to my doctor to get weighed and have my first batch of bloodwork done next Monday, so I'll know for sure then.

Sharon, you have another Facebook add! :D

Turned out to be a gastroparesis,was put on meds to get stomach working again and just started to hold down fluids yesterday finally. Lost 11 pounds since surgery, 16 since pre- op, and total 23 since I started seeing nut.

I was sleeved 5/23 too but am too scared to get on the scale! My highest weight was in January of this year, 302 lb. I lost 19 pounds during the Kaiser Options program and my one week liquid pre-op.

Well, tomorrow morning is the day I get sleeved....I am so excited and not nervous (not yet anyway). I have been waiting what seems like forever to get this done and am so ready to start my journey to a smaller, healthier lifestyle!

Sleeved on the 7th. Total of 30lbs down. 19 since the sleeve. That is only 3 weeks! Thrilled with my sleeve. I haven't been able to exercise the last 3 days, due to pain in my right side hurts when I walk and breathe. :-(

Melissa d, I was sleeved on may 17 and just got out of the hospital with an infection in my main middle incision. I had the worst pain. Fever hit me day 4 and I was in the er. It was high. The surgeon had to cut me back open and clean my infection. 3 days of iv antibiotics, and home on another. My incision is Prob 3 inches deep mo

Joke and wide open. I was also dehydrated and low potassium and all I did was sip sip sip! Hope for your sake it's not an infection. Keep us posted. This has been a very hard time for me and my family but I'm thankful it wasn't serious or life threatening!

I was sleeved May 9th. I've lost a total of 22lbs and that includes pre-op diet, but I haven't list anything in a week. I don't get it. I can't fathom why the.weight stopped and even went yi a few times. I'm honestly feeling kind of.negative about the whole situation. :o(

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
