Good luck! Dr. Roshek was my surgeon as well. I see him today for my 2 week post op. I have lost 14 pounds so far. Still having a hard time getting all my liquids in, but it is still early. Am doing some excercises at home now and walking at night. I feel so much better already. I hope you are doing well so far.

pre op diet not going well

I am not seeing the scale move... ugh. I am afraid my metabolism is so slow from years of bad habits that the sleeve will somehow not work for me. For years and years i kept the weight at an ok level by only eating once a day. My metabolism is at a crawl. As so as i started eating more than once is when my weight went way up. On the pre op trying to just do 2-3 shakes or bars with one lean meal may still be too much or something. I feel hungry though. I have a visit with the dietician later today. Maybe we can get to the bottom of this.

I am low bmi as well I weighted in at 215 and now just at 208 after 10 days. I wanted to be 200. I have my surgery on the 8th so....if I lose 4 pounds I will be happy but I can't get off the 208. I cheated once but got right back on the horse. I am paying out of pocket so really need this to work. BTW I am 63 and 5ft 5in. I wear a 16 or 18 depending. Everyone says you don't need this but yes I do for myself, my health and my grandchildren. I want to play with them and want them to be proud of me. So I do truly understand. When is your surgery day? What state are you in? I am in Ohio and traveling to TN.
