Hello! I was sleeved on Apr. 24, so just one week ago. I can't believe how good I feel just one week out. I just have a little soreness in my belly area. Just getting used to the rules for the next couple months, so I can be healthy for the rest of my life.

I was sleeved on the 24th and I think I am turning the corner to feeling better. One incision still hurts....but is getting better each day. Had my post op follow up today. Lost 20 lbs since surgery down to 219! I start Multivitamins on my 2 week surgery date and start puréed food. Progress!

I have been fortunate...no stalls and getting close to onderland which I have not seen since 2009. I have read stalls are common and some people gain then will have a nice drop. So be patient get your fluids and Protein in and give it time.

Revised from the Lap Band (ugh) to the Sleeve on 4/22/13... total loss since surgery 29lbs... Dr says I'm doing great, I thought I was going slow... I finally came to the realization, that I didn't put on all this weight in one day & I can't expect for it to come off over night... Even if it takes me a year, I know I will do it

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
