Very happy for you Tink. You can do it. The liquid stage passes and you get real food again. Not alot but at least its food. Hang in there it will be worth it. I lost 10 lbs in the first twelve days and will be getting my first fill Aug. 7. Skinny Grandma (Hope to be )

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
