1 1/2 years after the sleeve



Recommended Posts

It's been 1 1/2 years since my sleeve. I started as a 246 lb woman who wore size 28w. Now I am 118 lbs wearing a 0 sometimes size 2. I am thankful for the opportunity to have had the sleeve. Especially since I had a heart attack 2 years ago.

Holy smokes! You lost waaaay more than the 60-65% of 'excess body weight' they estimate. Did you have to work really really hard or did the sleeve do most of the work? Inquiring minds want to know (only one week post op). Thanks and congrats. You look friggin fabulous!

What time frame did it take to drop to 118? I started off at 250 lbs and I am currently weighing 174. A huge accomplishment, but I am still clinically obese. Just wanted to see where I stand I am 9 mo post op sleeve

      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.
