Congratulations!!! I was sleeved on 7/15 and so far I have only lost 12lbs. I started with 220lbs and now I am down to 208. :-). I had to stay an extra day at the hospital because a Lapband was removed as well. Too me it wasn't painful, the bad part was the gases and of course the hospital bed. :-( and reading all of this post has helped me so much. It keeps motivating me when I see pictures and people mentioning how much weight they have lost. I am praying that this will work for me. I have polio and having so much weight on my legs it's killing me. And once again CONGRATULATIONS to everyone and also thank u for sharing your experience.

I also found out my dr made another incision to hold my liver out of the way. I was very thankful for that because when my dad had the gastric bypass his surgeon nicked his liver.

Mine had to do this as well. My liver was very enlarged and fatty. I was sleeved on 7/1. Congrats to you!

Great. I have lost 23 pounds and continue to loose. I gained five pounds and then determined I was not getting enough calories. Once I upped my calories I started loosing again!
