Silly bladder wouldn't wake up and collected about 600 MLs of urine. Had to have my first straight catheter to get the pump going. Pretty sure I saw Jesus and almost ripped the RNs arm off. I did apologize though. Sent from my VS986 using BariatricPal mobile app

Doc got pulled into an emergency surgery yesterday morning and was tied up all day. My surgery got postponed to today. Getting dressed and heading to the hospital. Glad to hear you were able to get those laps in! Sent from my VS986 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hey December sleevers, I've been silently following BP for some time, and I just relieved my surgery date today. We're schedule for December 19th. I look forward to going through this journey with you all, and I thank you in advance for the support that I'll need. Ray

Hey everyone, My wife is three months post surgery and she's doing phenomenal. I've just scheduled my initial consult with the surgeon, so I'm very early in the process here. I did have some questions/concerns that I'd love some input on. I currently enjoy obstacle races such as Spartan and Tough Mudder. I also do Crossfit 3-4x per week. Post surgery, will I be able to fuel and hydrate myself to handle a 16-mile race on a mountain? I worry with the smaller stomach size, I won't be able to take in enough calories to function, or enough water to keep hydrated. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks! Ray

Hey fellas, My wife is three months post surgery and she's doing phenomenal. I've just scheduled my initial consult with the surgeon, so I'm very early in the process here. I did have some questions/concerns that I'd love some input on. I'm 5'10" 260ish. While I'm on the smaller side of people who want the procedure, I have sleep apnea, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Has anyone been really close to the BMI cutoff and what happens if you dip below it during the preop diet? I currently enjoy obstacle races such as Spartan and Tough Mudder. Post surgery, will I be able to fuel and hydrate myself to handle a 16-mile race on a mountain? Thanks! Ray Sent from my VS986 using BariatricPal mobile app
