Almost One Week Post Op.

[Medic645 8]

Had my sleeve done on 09/12/12. I lost 11 pounds Pre op and have lost an additional 14 since. My i weighed 340 on May 22,12 which is the day that my wife had Gastric Bypass. When I couldn't walk 50 feet on level ground without getting chest pain or short of breath it was so aggravating. I started watching my calories then. Lost a total of 31 pounds. I had my initial consult for a sleeve in February of this year. It's been quite a journey thus far. I weighed 318 for my consult then gained 22 pounds then lost 31 before I signed my surgical consents. When I started my Pre op I weighed 312 day of surgery I weighed 306 and at 6 days post op weight is 292. I must say to step on the scale and be under 300 is a accomplishment. I had thoughts that I made the worst mistake of my life but thankfully my wife is now 4 monts post op and is right by my side. This liquid diet is pretty brutal both physically and mentally. I'd like to be around 180. Just wanted to share my story so far.
