SleevedSillz 5 Posted August 16, 2013 Hey' date=' thank you so much for responding. I really appreciate it. It helps so much to stay connected. I've found the more I eat the Protein, it helps. I'm just exhausted. I want to get out to exercise and it's hard to motivate. I had the surgery two weeks and two days ago. :-)[/quote'] I had surgery a two weeks and 1 day my energy level is pretty decent. What I have noticed if I get tired easily.. also im feeling slight pain under my incisions.. ita like one of them is stick to something and as I cant stretch or it feels like its pulling. Best what I cam describe.. I feel it in my back as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jessyk698 0 Posted August 17, 2013 I am definitely going through some emotional stuff. It's very odd to not eat over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tina5978 33 Posted August 17, 2013 From the Bronx. Just got sleeved 8/14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eskimo_kisses4u 9 Posted August 17, 2013 I feel like I can eat too much it's weird but with my band when I felt discomfort I'd stop because it hurts this sleeve as long as I take my time I'm good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paper1875 5 Posted August 17, 2013 Over time you will get used to not eating. Its tough for me when I am stressed because I want to eat everything but luckily I can't. as for how I am doing I am down 83 lbs and feel amazing. I have hit a plateau for the last month however I have been losing inches and gaining muscle so I am not worried about the scale not moving. All in all I have to say that getting the sleeve was the best decision I ever made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessyk698 0 Posted August 17, 2013 Wow that's amazing. I would assume it gets much easier. It already has in two weeks. Can I ask what your goal loss is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
