Looking forward to the pre diet as well as getting the band. Sounds silly but biggest worry is being constipated...crazy, huh?

costco sells Gummy Fiber...it is a help to me and makes me think I am getting a treat. I also use the gummy vitiams!

Hi,

My surgery is scheduled for April 21st in Los Angeles. I'm also getting a bit nervous, but I'm excited to finally have it done (after years of "thinking about it"). :rolleyes:

Wow seeing my name on the list makes it so real. I am having these bursts of nervous energy, worked in the yard all day yesterday and have been cleaning the house like crazy. I want this house clean and the laundry all done so when I get home I won't have to worry about a thing.

I loved woodslass's idea of using baby forks and spoons, I am going to hunt down my childrens in the silverware box.

Thanks for putting the time into doing that!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
