Welcome ylopez!!! I was sleeved 3/18 also

Hi n thank you JennaG0902, this great we can all be sleeve buddies I'm in NY. Jenna you said your having pureed chili. I'm curious if I can have that too. How are you going to make it?

[JennaG0902 8]

They told us we could have it from Wendy's...I pureed it and was only able to eat 2ounces before I was full but it was a nice change of pace! Today was the 1st day I could have that.

DmHellow, where are you from? How are you feeling since your surgery?

DmHellow' date=' where are you from? How are you feeling since your surgery?[/quote']

I am from Macomb, not feeling to bad still sore. I had a band that slipped so they removed it and did a sleeve. So surgery went a little longer because they had to take down adhesions. But really not feeling to bad. Who did your surgery? Dr. Hawasli did mine at St. John's.

[JennaG0902 8]

Dr.Zeni out of St.Mary's. A few people I know have gone through him and highly recommend him. I have nothing bad to say about him or his staff they've been amazing!

Ylopez good thing im not the only one who can drink more then 4oz in a sitting.. I thought there was sumthinf wrong wd me lol..

[ylopez 10]

Jenna, yum I love Wendy's chili but I have to ask if I can have that cause it has meat in it. My Nutritionist says to stay away from meat for at least 4 months after surgery.

Vsgmommy, glad to hear someone else can get down 8oz as well. I was worried I'm able to take in too much. Yes I have noticed my clothes starting to feel bigger. I wore one of my favorite blouses yesterday n it was long cause my tummy has gone down. Has anyone gone back to work yet?

[JennaG0902 8]

It's crazy to me that every dr has different rules but Iguess they know what's best for us lol. I weighed myself today, I'm down 32lbs. I've been doing it every few days but think I'm going to start weighing only once a week. I'm so excited for all of us!

[ylopez 10]

Jenna Congratulations!! That is awesome! I can't wait for my appt tom. I was down 15 lbs pre-op. i havent bought a scale cause it would drive me crazy. But I know soon I will give in and buy one. Lol
