10 months post op

First let me say this has been a rollercoaster! But VERY well worth it !!! I am currently 100 lbs down and have zero regrets other then not doing it sooner! I have faced a lot of stalls and I'm still not 100% adjusted to my new lifestyle but I'm getting there. Anyone who is having doubts about this surgery, just do it !

I've been meaning to give an update but I have been so busy. Everything went great ! Dr. Maytorena is an AMAZING doctor! I wish I could have brought him home with me honestly. I had no pain from the surgery itself just really awful gas... Like I was in TEARS and hated myself! There were 3 other girls who got sleeved the same day as me and I was really the only one who had bad gas pain... So I don't want anyone to think it's a guarantee that it will happen to them... I think I just had bad luck lol. It took about 6 days for the gas to go completely away for me. That was really the only downside... As far as post op diet goes, I was on 10 days clear and now I've moved on to 10 days of full liquids phase. The clead liquid phase was tough but I had very little hunger. I honestly can't hold that much food/liquid... I underestimated my intake amount and thought I'd be able to take in more. It's honestly a great thing. I'm just trying to learn when to stop because its really painful if you over fill your pouch. Best news... I'm 11 days post surgery and 17 lbs down !!!

I'm on day 2 of my pre-op diet. I'm doing high protien and low carbs. I've done really good the past 2 days but I'm also craving things I shouldn't. Ughh.. However, I'm extremely determined! I've been doing years of research and saved all of this money and I'm NOT going to ruin it by cheating on my diet! This may be the beginning but I've come way too far at this point! I also went to the gym for an hour today... I'm extremely exhausted because I've been studying for my finals and I got those out of the way today as well. I'm just praying for strength to get me through the next few months....
