    I think the best advice I could give to anyone is really stick to the pre and post op diets. I didn't and I suffered the consequences. Also if you don't get enough protein after surgery it will probably make you constipated. At least that how my body works. Please make sure you get your vitamins and calcium supps. If I can assist you in anyway, pls reach out to me. God's blessings to you.

    Hey, I am over the moon happy about my decision to get the sleeve! It's taking a lot of getting use to, but I'm managing. My biggest battle is mental, once I conquer my mind, I know I will succeed. Overall, I'm doing very well, I keep forgetting I'm only two months out. I really did this because I was tired of dieting and working out with no real stable results. I started going back to the gym 3 wks after surgery and I really enjoy it more now. I wish you all the success in the world and believe you will not regret this life changing choice.

10 Month Update.....

by iamrandi on 02-12-2014 at 08:50 PM
Haven't been on here in 'forever' and had questions regarding hair thinning so during my search decided I'd do a quick update on what's been going on with me. I've exceeded my weight loss but have remained pretty steady for the past 3 months. Started at 242 and was only thinking to go down to 185-ish. Well my body decided that just was not enough so I am now at 174. I seem to hover around 174-176 which is fine with me. My hair issue is that it seems to be thinning. I read that I some people

Possible to stop weight loss???

by iamrandi on 07-25-2013 at 11:12 AM
Hello all.....so the goal here is 185-ish. Surgery date of april 12 i was 242. I am now 192. When i get to the low 180's i dont want to lose anymore....im 5'9 and would be too small in my opinion if i lost more than that. How do i stop losing if theres such a thing? Already dont eat much so the take in more calories by eating more option isnt a option. Milkshakes? Pls advise if you can. Thanks.

unrelated surgery issues...

by iamrandi on 05-27-2013 at 07:00 PM
So...i am a little over 7 weeks post op and had to have a unrelated surgery which had actually been scheduled prior to my sleeve. Well.....the surgery was to take a tumor from behind my left ear which has caused the nerves that control the left side of my face to be weak. Cannot chew or drink without a straw. Back on liquid diet and i feel i am going to lose too much weight. I really only want to lose like 20 more pounds. Any suggestions on taking in more calories.....milkshakes??? I am so off

5 weeks 2 days post op

by iamrandi on 05-19-2013 at 12:14 PM
I had actually forgot how long it had been since the surgery....thought 6 weeks but no....only 5 weeks. No matter...I am down 31 pounds and have had some interesting thoughts and stuff about this. I'll start with the scaring which really isn't bad but just thought i'd mention it....so yes they are small and I don't scar bad its just that they are there and I don't like it. So, I will invest in the $20 bottle of the stuff that starts with a 'M' that is suppose to clear scars. Moving on...I always
