    Congrats on your weight loss! I am scheduled to have surgery with Dr. Miles tomorrow morning

    Hope you are feeling well! how is the intake going? I had surgery the same day as you. Things are going well on my end! Hope you're up and about and feeling great
  5. Thanks for all the prayer & good wishes! Dr. Miles said I did great...surgery lasted 42 minutes. I got home @ 6 pm yesterday, missing my IV meds. Trouble this morning getting liquids in because every sip hurt, but it seemed to be a little easier as the day passed. I've only had 1 dose of liquid Lortab (nasty stuff), so my pain tolerance must be pretty good. Just praying for a quick recovery, and feeling blessed that everything went well.

    Good Luck on your upcoming surgery. I am also scheduled for the 25th. So much is going through my mind, but reading posts from others has really helped ease some of my nervousness. Hope things turn out well for you--

    Thanks for the friendship!! I wish all the luck in the world in your upcoming surgery! I will be using Dr. Andrew Dewitt at Princeton! I just met with him on the 6th of the month! I am so waiting to hear back from them to get the ball rolling on this tool. I have been overweight all my life, using diet after diet. Always lost, but gained it back and more! I have three kids and three grandchildren. I have been married to my childhood friend for 28 years next Friday. Love to spend time with my grandchildren. They live in North Alabama in Scottsboro. I live in Marengo County, Al. Just south of Demopolis and Linden, if you know where that is!! Look forward to hearing about your surgery and if you know anything that I should know about hurrying this process up , please let me know. You will be in my thoughts and prayers!

April 25, 2013...One Year Surgiversary!!!

by Lots2Love on 04-25-2013 at 11:49 PM
I couldn't let this day slip by without posting about my amazing journey over the past year!! I had my gastric sleeve surgery on the morning of April 25, 2012 in Birmingham, AL. My starting weight was 243.

I reached my goal weight of 155 in 36 weeks. My lowest weight was 148, and today I'm holding steady at 150. I went from a size 20 to a size 8...smaller than I was in high school!!

My experience overall has been awesome! Yes, I had some hair loss, but it's

1 Month Post Op

by Lots2Love on 05-25-2012 at 03:36 PM
I can't believe it's already been a month since my surgery! I've lost 25 lbs, but what really surprised me is the number of inches I've lost. My husband & I went to Belks in the mall yesterday, and for the first time in forever, I looked in the misses dept. A strange feeling came over me, like I was out of place or didn't belong there, but I think I'll get over that as my body becomes smaller!

I'm still having trouble getting all my liquids in...it just doesn't seem like

Post-Op Day 5

by Lots2Love on 04-30-2012 at 04:09 PM
Today is the last day of clear liquids...Yay!! Tomorrow I begin full liquids for days 6-14. I'm still having some cramping after every few sips, and it makes it difficult to get in my liquids. I wonder how my new tummy will react to a protein shake or cream of chicken soup?

Also, I have always loved dessert and when I went to church last night guess what? There was a dessert social after church...I wasn't tempted at all!!!

I am sleeved!!!

by Lots2Love on 04-27-2012 at 03:30 PM
I had surgery on Wednesday, April 25 at St. Vincent's East in Birmingham, AL. Today is my first day home and I feel pretty good. I'm having trouble with my clear liquids...tummy cramping & such. The pain is not unbearable and I'm sure it will get better soon. I'm so glad my husband is off work this week, he has been such an encouragement to me!
