    Hey Tallees,

    When you finally have your surgery and are feeling well enough to post, please share it in our group. Again, we have a different viewpoint on life and that includes sitting, walking, bending, clothes fit, and much, much more.

    Great job! I haven't been weighed since 2 weeks out(insurance foul up) so I'm rescheduling my one month. And will hopefully have some new numbers soon.

    Hi everyone!

    I had surgery 12/10/13 and weighed 445
    today 6/17/14 I am down to 304

    I feel sick all the time though and don't know if I am doing something wrong or if I need to eat more often. Plus my legs have been hurting like when I walk around the mall. Is anyone else feeling this?

    Hi everyone!

    My name is Brook, I was sleeved in Mexico on June 24th, am a little over 5 weeks out and have lost 61 lbs so far. Here were my beginning stats:

    Height: 5'9
    Weight: 452
    Weight after pre-op diet: 432
    Clothing sizes before surgery 3x-4x (26/28 or 30/32)

    As a side note, one thing I've noticed about my sleeve that I think has something to do with my height and the fact that I have a really long torso is that on my leak test x-ray, my stomach looked longer than the other people who were in my group having the surgery done at the same time. I was also able to drink more fluids than most of the other people from the get go.

    Anyway, I hope you are all doing great on your sleeve journey. I've been keeping a weekly update on my personal blog that documents my experiences from pre-surgery. You are welcome to check it out if you'd like. MommyCEOs: Gastric Sleeve

    Take care!

    rfillmore26, I just read your post from last month and hopefully you've figured out what is making you feel sick to your stomach all the time. If not, look into taking an acid reducer or more of an acid reducer. I just recently have been going through something similar and found that too much acid in my guts was causing the issues. Take care.
