    I has my surgery on 6/4. I am down 50. Dr A was also my doctor.
  2. Update: My surgery was 3/17 so its been 14 days. Im feeling great and I am down 22 pounds! WooHoo! I am quite brave in testing new foods... sometimes its good, sometimes not so good. Last night I took my son to our fave Mexican food restaurant. Two bites of cheese enchilada was all I could do. I have tried chili and peanut butter. All seem to agree with me but I have to limit myself to about 2 bites. Then I feel satisfied and no longer want anymore. I haven't started walking since I returned home. I went back to work the Monday after returning Friday. But I am ready! Set! Walk!!!

    I had sleeved on 3/25/15 by Dr. Almanza. I'm doing well... I'm glad to be going through this journey with you.
  4. I swallow my pills, no liquid. Crushing was just too nasty! I am learning to SIP!! Its hard because I forget and it hurts like a bad gas pain in the middle of my chest. It only lasts a few seconds but it does get your attention. This sleeve is going to teach me the hard way! I am sipping Progresso Chicken Noodle soup and even tried a noodle or two. I just have to remind myself to go slowly.

    Glad to hear you are doing well and 15 lbs lighter ... and thanks for the heads up it has certainly relieved the worrying ...
    how is the swallowing going? are you able to take your medications/vitamins?

  8. Oh I know what pre op is. Mine is 10 days! Bummer!

    When I got my confirmation with Dr. Almanza they said I would do the three day preop. Your should be in the paper work they sent you. I'm glad you found someone to go with you. I would be scared to go all alone. Are you on Facebook? I am under Leslie Robinson Lester. May be easier to chat than through an open forum.
  10. Hi Leslie! I was going to go by myself but a dear friend said she couldn't let me go alone! Now, I am quite independent but it will be nice to have her there. I am with you on the 'no hunger'. I eat when I am hungry and when Im not. I need more self control and the way I see it this will take the option of junk eating and over eating away from me. What do you mean by 3 day pre-op?

    I need a lifestyle change. I want to have energy and just feel good. Luckily I only have a 3 day preop. I hope I will be one of the lucky ones who don't get hungry. It would be nice to have to remeber to eat. Will you be coming alone or with someone?
