So i am nearing my 1 month mark, and i have to say im really starting to (finally) get the hang of this sleeve! I am starting to get my energy back, im starting to keep my house clean again!! I really suffered with nausea and dizziness up until 2 weeks post-op, i started drinking gatorade rather than plain water and after a few days i was able to finally get past that. I have to say within these past 5 days (once i started purees) i really am starting to feel like myself again. I've been able to even start getting in some excersize on my treadmill. I've signed up for my first ever 5k in May so that's really giving me some motivation and a goal to work towards.  Even though i had a very rough start, i still thanked God every single day for this opportunity.  My highest weight was 263, the day of surgery i was 252, and today (after a 10 day stall) i am 237.8. I am now the same weight as i was when i got pregnant with my now 1 year old! Now to work towards my pre-pregnancy weight from my first 2 =)

Thats a total of 25lbs down from my HW and 15lbs down since surgery!

           Cant wait to take my after picture

Glad you're feeling well!

I have a basement but don't dwell in it full time.
