Bigboy76 102 Posted August 13, 2014 Good Luck to you both! Wedding Anniversary and Sleeversary will now be within days of each other!! Not much true celebrating likely this year since I'll be freshly discharged........but based on the feedback I'm hearing from fellas on here....2015 might require a trip to a secluded island with Wifey!!!! She's sleeving soon also....so should be a great celebration next year!!!!! 1 woo woo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bigboy76 102 Posted August 14, 2014 Yep, that was my thought too. I figured I'd get the party started and she would see that it will be better if we both change together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJVSTuser 32 Posted August 28, 2014 Good luck guys, Who was taking the lead in suggesting you both went through the procedure? That will be great for support as you get out there walking after the procedure and for designing menus as you progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigboy76 102 Posted August 28, 2014 Thanks! My Primary Doctor is the reason I'm having the sleeve done. However, my a Wife and daughter will be good supporters for me. I start liquid diet on Tuesday!!! WoW! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJVSTuser 32 Posted August 28, 2014 Yes, my daughter (adult) acted as my monitor and kept me on the path of sticking to the diet and getting my walks in every day. Pre-surgery liquid diet just got me used to living off liquids for a while and I lost 20lbs in three weeks on it. Good luck and shrink that liver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
