    I will be sleeved on 9-25-14. Love reading all the comments but jsuggs your comment really caught my attention. My doc has never mentioned that I had to lose a certain amount of weight before surgery, and I sure hope that thought doesn't pop into his head! My current weight is 264. In March when I met with the nutritionist my weight was 284, so I have made a little progress. However--I'm on the 1st week of my pre-op diet and it is not going well. I'm allowed 2 small meals a day this week, protein shake for breakfast. Next week is completely fluids. Couple of days ago I was 262. I WANT TO EAT. And I have been eating. I don't know if it's anxiety about the coming surgery, but I can't talk myself into adhering to this diet. I'm beginning to wonder what the response will be if on 9-25 I'm still 264. Or 267, my weight on the day I saw the surgeon and got all my pre-op info. I know I can do better. And I will. Good luck everybody!

    Hi there - I was sleeved on 9/10/14. I was 318 prior to surgery, day of 298, now 293. My weight loss on all liquids post op was low because I did not drink enough grams of protein, per my doc. I need to get more fluids and more protein down. Today was my 10 day post op appointment and I was advanced to pureed foods. Still trying to get the hang of it all but looking forward to great results.

    Hello Everyone, Just joined this group because as much research as I have been doing, I know AA folks are quite a bit different culturally on the weight loss front. My sister and I are planning to have our surgery by end of October if all goes well, so I am doing as much research and asking as many questions from those who have taken the journey. We are working with ALighterme and plan to do it in Mexico. If anyone has worked with this company or can provide your thoughts about your sleeve surgery, your post op struggles, etc I would love to hear about it. I am so glad I found this group, I have tons of questions.!

    Rona I used A Lighter Me and I still talk to the them all the time. They have been awesome. I am not losing really fast but that is my own fault because some who went me are losing at lightening speed. Its a tool and not a miracle for sure.

    Bpulli1 how long were you down there? Trying to figure how much time I will need to take off from work. Sister is going with me and she is seriously considering doing it too. Just don't want to wait until December.

    Hello I am Pfynss... I was sleeved on 9/4/14... 3 weeks ago... and I am progressing well... I feel better and better each day. Still on liquids and mush. Gashes on my stomach are healing.... just in time for Halloween. My body rejects foods... so that means I try it and if it doesn't agree... I puke. I am having difficulties regulating my bowels... only one bowel movement since surgery... Can you say DISCOMFORT. I am trying to shock my system into regulation... if you have any experience with this please share. But all is well and hope to hear more from you all.
