Hey friends -

I am 2 months out from my VSG and feel that I have not been doing great. I am down about 30 pounds (-8 pounds 2 weeks pre-diet 6/27 to 7/11 and -22 pounds 7/11 to 9/9) and eat...

Set a dream goal for yourself - you are doing FANTASTIC!

We just celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary and my husband and I got matching fitbits!

We spent a long weekend in Seattle and we walked, and walked, and walked...we got in almost 20 miles in 2...

I hit my first mini goal today and hit -20. This is since 6/27 starting with my 2 week pre-op diet. I have been working hard, walking everyday (10,000 steps), drinking...

I understand your frustration - I too am working hard and am not seeing the results that I expected. I am only 17 days out since surgery.

GETTING RID OF DIABETES AND CPAP IS HUGE!!!! HUGE -...

THANK YOU REHAB NURSE...I really want to understand the why behind things. That helps a lot. They are calling my stomach a pouch and I did get the sleeve. It is hard to not have a common language....

Hey Friends,

I am almost 1 week since I was sleeved. Every day gets better. I have 2 pills my doctor wants me to crush. They taste HORRIBLE and I can't do it. I have really bad gag reflexes.

Thanks everyone!!!!

Hey friends,

I am 3 days out of getting sleeved and feeling better every day.

Did anyone put any ointment on their scars on their stomach?

Thanks!

HI Linda - I had mine done today in Burbank. I was very happy for headphones and phone to listen to relaxing music and sleep...after my walks.

Good luck tomorrow.... :)

Got my sleeve this morning. Super tired and more pain than I expected....trying to walk, walk, walk.

Super excited for the days and months to come....
:)

YAY!!!! Congrats to you. Mine is tomorrow morning...I will try and Walk, walk, walk!

Thank you RehabNurse!

Hi,

I am having the sleeve on 7/11! I am ready to do it. I am on 48 hour clear liquid diet right now. I have a very hard time with large pills. My doctor wanted me to take 2 potassium pills...

I hope that yours goes very well - it is exciting!
