hazelzay 75 Posted November 4, 2016 I had my surgery June 16th 2016 and I am down 72 pounds . I am extremely happy with my decision even though after surgery I experienced vomiting throughout the summer and ended up having my gall bladder taken out in August . I really feel like having the sleeve was the best decision I ever made . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hazelzay 75 Posted November 4, 2016 You look amazing! Has the vomiting stopped?! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Yes the vomiting stopped after they found out that my liver enzymes were elevated after my surgery . So when they took my gall bladder out I felt a lot better after the recovery . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was 311 two days before surgery. I'm 13 days post) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I was 236 but in that picture I really don't know how much I weight because that was like 5 months before I started going through the process of meeting the surgeon nut during the two week pre op diet lost 17 pounds . After two weeks after surgery I did get really sick with vomiting on and off the whole summer so I think that also had a lot to do with me losing so fast because I wasn't really able to eat like that ( which was the worst part of my experience ) but I was losing a lottt . Like some weeks I was losing 10 pounds in a week . But after I got better I would stall a little and then now I still continue to lose . Like since last week I've lost 8 pounds.
