Breigh 11 Posted March 16, 2017 Hello everyone, I had my sleeve on March 2nd. Was floored at my first weigh in today - 21 pounds since the surgery! I am so excited - definitely made these last two weeks worth the effort. I am also feeling great! Asked my doctor to release me back to work early but he still feels I should get some more rest if I'm able? For those just getting it done, push through any pain and regret - I know I'm still new too, but I promise you it gets better! Hope everyone else is doing as well. 7 HeatherS., ScottH611, Faithey and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linasg 26 Posted March 21, 2017 So happy for you! I'll also be having 2 weeks off work and am planning to use the time to clear out any remaining "junk" from the kitchen and outing together folders of recipes and meal plans so that I set myself up for success. My surgery is this Saturday! 1 Breigh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Breigh 11 Posted March 22, 2017 Thank you both. Yes, the energy thing is crazy - I feel like I have a ton but get worn out quick. I finally got my work release after 3 weeks, but with a restricted schedule as well. Congrats & Good luck to both of you on your journeys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Positivechange36 0 Posted April 16, 2017 I was out a week, went back for half days a week and then full time the 3rd week. I was down 25 lbs at my post op exam. Surgery was March 23rd. I'm feeling amazing. Congrats on your loss so far!! 😊 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
