This is so awesome! I wish I found this months ago!!! Probably would have saved me many nights of tears!! Thank you so much for welcoming me.. I'm already searching and reading... I've joined a few groups on FB but I've been off FB for the most part.. So it didn't do me any good! This is much more discreet and I feel much more comfortable posting!

I was sleeved two days ago, and was surprised that the first 24 hours were harder than I anticipated, I'm feeling pretty good today and so excited for what's to come! I am excited for you too, the time is going to fly by and before you know it you will be on this side of the journey...on a path to health and wellness! Congrats!!

You will probably notice huger improvement just from one day to the next in these early days. And in two weeks you won't believe how much better you fee. Once you make it to "normal" feeling again, it will be smooth sailing. For me that was a couple weeks after I was back on solid foods and had figured out how much to safely eat at a time. Every day and week will bring a whole host of learning experiences early on.

Congrats to you as well!! So excited for you... And me!! Yay! Glad to hear you're feeling well. I'm sure there are so many things I still must learn! I quit smoking which was the hardest! But it feels awesome to say that I'm a NON SMOKER!! And more changes to come for the better! #tolife

Well done. You've tackled a tough aspect right away. Huge respect for this.

I was sleeved 8 days ago and have been very pleased with how smoothly the whole process has been.

This place is great. The phone app is cool......but the full blown pc/mac version is awesome. You can get in and look at all the inspiring before and after pics and see cases where folks have really applied themselves and followed the plan strictly. The ones I really like seeing are the ones where the surgeries were 4+ years ago and the sleeve or bypass patients have not only maintained the weight loss....but thrived !!!!!

Welcome and I hope you don't feel alone in this any longer.

Congrats again on quitting smoking. I know from experience what that's like and am glad that urge is gone from life.

Wow thank you so much Dub!!

I don't think I have ever posted this much on any site EVER! And I have never felt so welcomed, as well as encouraged in the past few hours than I have in God knows how long!!!!

Thank you for the suggestion to get on my PC.. Something else to look forward to!

Congrats on your journey!! I've seen many replies from you and I respect how you encourage so many people!!
