Paulakay 1 Posted March 13, 2014 Hello, I live near Cape Girardeau, Mo. I had my sleeve done at DePaul hospital off St Charles Rock road March 5, 2014. My surgeon is Dr. morales. I highly rec. him. My surgery has been so much better than I expected. I have had no nausea at all. Pain has been minimal. Tomorrow is my 1 wk check up. I'm looking forward to being able to add more foods. broth, Jello, and Protein Shakes are really getting old. I've lost 20 lbs counting the week before surgery. I am surprised that I am hungry a lot of people I read are not. But some post that they also were the first week after. I'm so glad I chose to do this and would do it again in a second!!! 1 SpecialNewMe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amayzme 15 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) lovinglife28....I had my surgery on Jan 14, 2014, so I'm still pretty new at this. Weight is coming off, slow but still losing and better than I have ever done on my own. I'm not loving my sleeve yet, but I'm sure that will come more in time. Right now I'm still trying to recover and learn how to eat with my sleeve. It's a learning process, but I have faith that it will do like it's supposed to as long as I follow the plan. I see that your planning on having surgery soon. Best of luck to you. My sleeve was done 1/4/14 down 40# at week 11. From sz.18 to 14 my goal is size 10 bmi 22.0 i live in eldon Mo.
