Bariactric Sleeve

[zengoddess 25]

Hello Everyone!!! I just loss 2 lbs. And I feel great. Took a morning walk with each dog separately. I can't risk my stomach being pulled open by 2 dogs. I'm now walking 2X per day instead of just 1 time each day. So that's 4 walks. I just love it, the morning air and the evening breeze. I didn't even have the energy for 1 walk per day. The food portions are so small, but they r filling. You have to forget who you were before this weight loss surgery. Those big plates of food and drink will haunt you in the beginning, but a nice tiny bowel of tuna fish with mayo and Smoked Turkey sliced so small, pureed green Beans and delicious instant mashed potatoes is so good, though the portions are only as big as a small walnut each. I have yogurt, cottage cheese and sugar free popsicles and Jello. The portion sizes are very small, but like I said filling. When I walk the dogs in my village, people love to barbecue. It smells so good and you know that someday, you'll be able to have a bite, when you are eating solid food. You need to eat small portions or you will vomit or worse, you will stretch your stomach eating the wrong food and portions and your surgery will have been for naught. I have 220 lbs. When I was 240 lbs. I had reached a plateau and I could not lose weight. But, with this operation and small portions & Snacks, the weight just melt off. I am constantly drinking Water and the generic Crystal Light which are so delightful. So if you r thinking of having The Gastric Sleeve, do it

Do it for you. Leave the Haters in your dust. If I can do it, anyone can. Afterwords, I was in pain from my back, not the surgery. The surgery took about 1 hour, laying on a flat steel table. My Anklyosis Spondalytis can't lay flat. So, I had a Morphine Pump, which Was so addictive and I was hallucinated. By the 3rd day I was ready to go home to liquid Vicodin. Overall, it was a great experience. It's been easy to rest and recuperate at home with no job and no worries. I am my best nurse and 19 days later, I feel great!!! No lifting or pulling/pushing. But, I need to vacuum so, soon I will try to incorporate light housework into my routine. I rest a lot in bed, but I don't sleep and I am busy with correspondence and magazines. 2 Dogs and a beautiful Smoky Gray cat keep me grounded and focused. Well, I'm hoping that at least 1 of you will be Enlightened with this post. The Gastric Sleeve is an amazing operation and I should have done it sooner, but all good things are graced in Gods sweet time and not Sooner or Later. Love and hugs I send to you. God Bless Us Everyone.
