8 days post-op.

Hey yall.

Well, the surgery went fine. However, I've had an allergic reaction to the medicine used during the surgery and have scratched 40lbs almost off. lol. well, not that dramatic but you get what i mean. ;-)

I stayed in the hospital a little longer because my pain was out of control. So I had surgery on Tuesday morning and came home Friday afternoon. I jumped on the scale just now and on the day of surgery, I was 298lbs and tonight I am 278.5 pounds!!! Thats a total loss of 19.5lbs people!!! I'm so excited!! I am glad I had the sleeve surgery and I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Inman.. really she is an amazing doctor but a beautiful soul and person. Thank you so much.

I'll update you all again soon!!  Good luck to all those waiting--- I know the anxiety you're going thru... youre almost there!!

Congrats on the successful start of your journey!  The sleeve wasn't offered when I had surgery eight years ago, at least not by my surgeon.  Can you tell me a little about the surgery?  Thanks.

 I am glad that you have the surgery over and making progress. I, too, am dealing with St V in Carmel. How has the adjustment been to get the supplements, water, food and etc in during the day? I am waiting for the insurance acceptance. 

Congrats on your surgery sorry you had such complications! Take things slow and stay positive!
