steffranco 45 Posted September 16, 2013 I had my sleeve done a week ago today, and I didn't want to weigh myself because I hear weighing yourself every day just makes you crazy, butttttt I went to see my aunt at the doctor's office she works at and I couldn't resist. IM DOWN 16 POUNDS!!!! HOLY MOLY! I'm so happy, and glad that all this is already paying off. I feel great. I haven't had any nausea, I've been getting my 64oz of Water in, yes, I'm over the liquid diet, but I have my post op appointment on Thursday. Something to look forward to. I just wanted to share my joy with everyone today, and hope you guys are having an amazing Monday! 7 kjrutland, zachprice502, Tangy and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mba68 10 Posted September 16, 2013 Congrats! I know what you mean. ..I can see the weight loss in my legs, face, and in my shoulders. . I carried a lot of my weight in my stomach. However, what I do see makes me feel more human... in fact since surgery and the weight loss, I feel like I am more accepted out in public, which makes me so happy! 1 steffranco reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mlowell 39 Posted September 17, 2013 Congrats!! How Awesome for you. I am a week post-op tomorrow. I had a rough time with dinner tonight...just wanted to chew something, you know? One more week of liquids for me........... 1 steffranco reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mba68 10 Posted September 17, 2013 Congrats on your surgery! I know what mean about chewing on something. I am able to get soft foods down, but only a small bite. .I feel my stomach digest and it bugs me. My husband still has a hard time understanding that I can only eat extra small amounts, but remains my biggest supporter. It is still a learning experience, but I wouldn't change a thing. I wish you the best of luck! I know you will feel so good and so happy! :-) 1 steffranco reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
