You guys have got this. Your first 2 weeks will be the worst but everything will start looking up after that. I'm just over a month out and I'm thrilled with the results.

Today is the day. Hope all those ladies that went in this morning are doing great. I have been listening to the radio and they are all hyped about the eclipse I didn't realize until one of the other posters stated today is a special day with the eclipse and also with all of our surgeries... yay

Yayyyyyy you got this!! I was sleeved last Tuesday 8/15 it was not bad at all. Like they say surgery day and the day after was rough but so far so good. Getting my liquids in fine and just resting. Good Luck!!

Hi everyone! ....... My Sleeve surgery was postponed for the 3rd time. Looking ahead to a 9.25.17 date now.

I had previously started the liquid diet for the first 2 days & thought I was going to pass out or die! I was in bad shape & won't lie..... I was relieved that my surgery was delayed another month. Little did I know then, what I know now............. getting past that second day is Key........ that is when your body starts burning off stored fat! Now, I look forward to the next time I do this diet before surgery. They don't tell you everything......... I've read & learned so much since joining this forum. Thanks everyone!

Why did your surgery get postponed?

[Deeme 21]

I had a skin infection on just the left side of my stomach called Cellulitis. I spent almost a week in the hospital, in June, on 4 antibiotic drips & have been on others every since that time. This comes & goes....and.... can happen to anyone at anytime with a bug bite, itching, etc. They really don't have a definite answer, except that...... antibiotics don't work good like they did 20 yrs. ago....... which is a scary thing, when you think about it. It looks good now, let's hope it stays that way. I remain on the antibiotics until the day of my surgery.
