CosRoc 9 Posted June 30, 2016 @@CosRoc hey! I was sleeved on 6/20! How are you doing so far??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I reached pureed foods yesterday (2 weeks post surgery),so life is good .Down 12 lbs since surgery on 6/14 and a total of 37 since pre op.diet start. I'm doing well. So glad I made this choice. And I'm going to work it for all that it's worth. Looking forward to when I'm let loose in the gym to do all I want,but for now, getting in a lot of cardio. Many many miles.

Between the surgery and liquid diet I'm down 20 lbs since June 13th. I'm looking forward to this journey!

Jesm1029 101 Posted June 30, 2016 I had to do it too and I'm glad I did because right after surgery you do it again and your already use to it so it's a little easier at that point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
