All Nov 19 Sleevers!

[nursemeg89 185]

Hey nov 19th girls! How is everyone making out?!? I hope well. I am doing really well and am so so happy that I made this excellent, life-changing decision. Those first couple days post-op, i had my doubts. However, to get on the scale and LOSE weight every time instead of gaining- it is truly a dream come true to me. My highest weight was 296 on november 4th, right before I started my pre-op diet. Today I weighed in at 251. This is the lightest I've been in a while and cant wait to continue to lose. My goal by my 24th bday on June 11th is to be in one-derland! Even 199 will do looking forward to the 6-week post op mark where my surgeon has cleared me to hit the gym for some spinning classes! Ladies- please share where u are and any upcoming goals or other fun things with me

hey have a great time x

bet this will be your first time loosing weight on a vacation !

let us know how you get on x

Had a great time on vacation! There were so many food options that I was able to stay on soft foods (mostly, i had a couple slip ups). I did work out on the ship and stayed very active. At night I slept like a log with the rocking of the ship. A few times I felt a little exhausted and took mid day naps. I did not want to come home!

Hi everyone. Wish I had found this site before I had my surgery which was Nov. 20th in Tijuana, Mexico. I was very scared to be going to a foreigh country for the surgery but everything worked out o.k. The only complication I had was feeling very sick after surgery and I also had a terrible headache. I live in Ontario, Canada so the flight was long - 6 hours plus waiting times at different airports. I am done 16 lbs so far and this has been the first week I have actually felt close to normal. What Vitamins (B12, Iron, etc.) is everyone taking. Thanks for letting me in the group even though I am the 20th.

It sounds like everyone is doing really awesome. To answer your Vitamin question- I take 1 Multivitamin twice a day and 1 500mg calcium citrate three times a day when I'm behaving myself. They are all chewable, and are Bariatric Advantage brand.
